The Russians are not stupid and they recognise bullshit when they hear it.
I'm suprised the yanks can keep a straight face pretending it's for Europe's benefit.

Well, they'll be deploying it in European (NATO) not Russian soil.

Plus, a missile defense is also good for rogue missiles fired inadvertently by a computer malfunction or a crazy field commander.

If the shield is for US, they could've just deployed it in secrecy in Alaska, Hawaii or Canada.

E may K din siguro Moscow na ayaw nila may missile sa tabi nila

The big difference between the two is that the missiles the Russians put in Cuba are intermediate-range ICBM's designed to destroy cities in the US. They were offensive missiles with nuclear warheads. One of those Russian missiles with 2 or 3 warheads can erase an entire city.

The kind of missile the US will use in the missile shield is designed to destroy another missile. It should be relatively short-ranged and the warhead is most likely a fragmentation type, like a grenade. The whole inventory can be fired on one city and they'll barely make a dent assuming they have the range in the first place.

I'm with Putin, though. If there's an agreement between the US and Russia not to install a missile defense shield in Europe, then the US should abide by that agreement.
