Russia States It Will Respond With More Than Diplomacy if the Poland Missles Go In

but its a defensive missile system? for example patriot systems, wheres the threat?

Doesn't it castrate Russia's offensive capability? If it were to be attacked by America (whom it doesn't trust) it wouldn't be able to fully retaliate.

From what I've seen, when the Pentagon talks about "pre-emeptive" attacks, they mean something else.

it would negate a percentage of Russian ballistic missiles ,world destruction would not be avoided, it does nothing to hinder Russian conventional military capabilities, its primarily designed for rogue missiles,countries like Poland and the Ukraine would be overran in a matter of days shield or no shield.
