New Cuban missile crisis brewing: Medvedev’s October surprise?
Cuba — as we outlined in La Manzana de Havana — always plays an outsized role in U.S. presidential politics. What better time than now, as November looms, for Russia to once again deploy nuclear bombers to Cuba? The Russians just love these kinds of games. What with the Russian and U.S. economies respectively booming and busting (and U.S. missiles deploying to the Czech Republic) . . . they’re back!

The Russians are acting crazy. The missile defense shield poses no credible threat to the Russians. They can defend against a dozen or so nukes, not the thousands Russia posseses. Also, Russia doesn’t “own” the Czech Republic or Poland anymore and never had the right to tell those countries what to do in the past with their defenses and alliances and sure as hell doesn’t have that right now. Putin (Medvedev’s puppet-master) is being paranoid (not surprising, Mr. KGB), obnoxious, and provocative. W isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, but it doesn’t give Putin carte blanche to have excuses to violate our defenses by restaging nukes in Cuba. It is a missile shield in Europe, not a missile sword.
russia is lucky that the usa don’t occupy their country and take they oil if they keep it up.
