U.S. Wants Radar Base In Czech Republic

PRAGUE, Czech Republic - The United States has asked the Czech Republic to host a radar base that would be part of a global missile defense system, the prime minister announced Saturday, drawing a warning from Russia of retaliatory actions.           Yahoo News

Independent defense experts have said the ground-based missile defense system is still years from being able to protect against long-range missile attacks.

    As if Russia is going to allow this base so close to home! More of the fantasy that Ronald Reagan started with his Stars Wars weapons system!

    So I take it that our government would then have to start the draft again just to guard the workers who would be building this station?
