Basically, it is my understanding that the Cold War was started and prolonged by a series of escalating events.

Putting a "missile defense system" in Poland is an escalating event, is it not?

We may see it as politically neutral or non-offensive, but Russia does not. The fact that we knew putting it in Poland would upset Russia makes the entire situation an ESCALATING EVENT.

Don't we have enough shit to worry about with the Middle East? Can't we just let the UN sort Russia out?

I swear I'm moving to Canada...legal marijuana, free health care, and a French government that would rather eat wine and cheese than be "noble".
