A new cold war? That's what Russia says may happen

From Raw Story:

Poles and Czechs to cooperate in US missile talks as Russia warns WARSAW (WIRE SERVICES) - Poland and the Czech Republic said they would work together in talks with Washington on the missile defense shield it wants to set up in central Europe, even as Russia threatened retaliation.

"We are trying to set up an information-sharing system for discussions on this proposal," Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek said during a press conference with his Polish counterpart Jaroslaw Kaczynski.

"We have agreed that both countries are likely to give (Washington) a positive answer. Talks will begin after that," Topolanek said.

Russia has objected to having the shield stationed on its doorstep and threatened to pull out of a treaty with the United States limiting short and medium-range missiles.

In a statement, a key Russian general warned Monday that Poland and the Czech Republic "risk being targeted by Russian missiles if they agree to host U.S. missile defense bases," writes Vladimir Isachenkov for The Associated Press.

This admin of ours is itching to get into another war. Two fronts aren't enough it seems. The longer Bushco is in office, the more destruction happens worldwide.
