Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted May 28, 2016 (edited) Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned Romania and Polandthey could find themselves in the sights of Russian rockets because they are hosting elements of a US missile shield that Moscow considers a threat to its security. Putin issued his starkest warning yet over the missile shield, saying that Moscow had stated repeatedly that it would have to take retaliatory steps but that Washington and its allies had ignored the warnings. Earlier this month the US military - which says the shield is needed to protect from Iran, not threaten Russia - switched on the Romanian part of the shield. Work is going ahead on another part of the shield, in Poland. "If yesterday in those areas of Romania people simply did not know what it means to be in the cross-hairs, then today we will be forced to carry out certain measures to ensure our security," Putin told a joint news conference in Athens with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras. "It will be the same case with Poland," he said. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/putin-warns-romania-and-poland-that-hosting-us-missile-shield-system-puts-them-in-russias-cross-a7053361.html Let the games begin (or continue)...

CampinWithaMissingPerson 2,025 Posted May 29, 2016 Isn't his political opponent saying they should Nuke the Islands off of Great Britain that Denmark owns just to show the world Russia means business? Faroe Islands I believe? Russia is backed up against a wall economically and they still feel threatened by NATO. Russians get painted as brash decision makers by us but history has shown that's way overstated. Doubt they take military action they know what comes with that. They're just pissed.
