Its laziness. Id expect Gopher would take 2 weeks to master Russian and then read the original files. Anything less from Gopher would be sub par. |

Becuase the US wants to occupy and control Poland. Right.
And rogue states like Iran (and maybe even Russia) don't pose a threat to Poland. Right.
Did this champagne socialist ever deride Russia and the Eastern Bloc in the 80s? I doubt it. He wasn;t brave enough. He left his hell-hole communist Poland to seek haven in the arms of the great Satan: the US. S'far as I'm concerned he ain't welcome in the US anymore. |
Wise words...  |

This has got to be one of the most asinine comments to hit this forum. There is absolutely no connection. Had the USAF been ALERTED to a problem in time something could have been done. Do you get off on gratuitious swipes against the American military? |

Confrontational ignorance. Nice combination.
You attempt to forge and then wield a rhetorical question has utterly failed here, RJjr. |
It was a question and Kuros, unlike yourself, was able to come up with an intelligent reply.
Ignorance would be you typing, with your white nose in the air, about how blacks would riot after an Obama election victory or saying liberals burned down Palin's church.  |

Our pilots, foot soldiers, tank soldiers, artillery soldiers, et cetera are the best in the world and have the best equipment. But we're all aware of what the ancients said about lions who are led by sheep.
9/11 was unacceptable. It obviously wasn't the fault of our fighter pilots or mechanics, but there were definitely failures at the Pentagon level. Either there was a failure of planning, a failure of execution, or both. That's not a "swipe against the American military." That's reality.
I also believe our soldiers had the talent and bravery to catch Osama bin Laden, but they were hindered by incompetent officers and officials in the Pentagon and in Washington.
I have every right to be pissed off about how the Department of Defense has fucked up pretty much everything this whole decade: 9/11, the escape of bin Laden, Iraq, Afghanistan. Just because you, ManintheMiddle, and Osama bin Laden are satisfied with how things have gone doesn't mean I'm obligated to celebrate with you three.
But back to the topic in the thread: How much money will the missile shield cost? (Note to Gopher: I don't know, that's why I'm asking. And no, I haven't read any declassified government memos on the Poland missile shield.) |

No problem, RJjr. You and many others here, the most distinct impression that I get from you, is that you have not indeed read much of anything. |

don't even GO THERE everyone with half a brain can find the more than ample evidence they were told to stand down.  |

I don't buy that the USAF didn't know about the problem considering that millions of bon bon eating housewives watched the first plane hit the WTC on TV nearly an hour before the third plane hit the Pentagon.
I don't know if they were told to stand down or to wait for Bush to finish reading My Pet Goat or what, but heads should've rolled. Knowing we have the best fighter pilots and the best fighter planes in the world, and to think the degenerate highjackers had air supremacy over the Pentagon, of all places, is sickening. In any case, we can all be grateful that the brave passengers on the plane that crashed in Pennsylvania overtook their highjackers and saved a lot of American lives. Those men and women should have a great monument built in their honor. |

Utter ignorance is reading and rereading Thomas Dixon's books so many times you thought blacks would riot after an Obama election victory.  |
