Putin is upset because Russia is being hemmed in along its western southern borders by American bases, which are being established in ex-soviet bloc countries. The missile shield is simply the latest development in the assertion of global US borders. The missile shield is a white elephant, in that it will only defend against US coalition missiles, and won't touch any of the latest Russian and Chinese technology. The whole missile game is one of cat and mouse, and in the case of the missile shield, it sounds great on paper, but in practice the lead time from design to implementation is simply too great. Remember this shield was originally proposed in 1986, so it's 21 years old already. The truth is, you don't need a defensive shield if you have a reasonable foreign policy, and the fact that the US insists on building one says much about how the current administration views the rest of the world. The long term US objective in the mid and near east is to put a US base in close proximity to every location where oil and gas exists in abundance. The lines are being drawn for a future energy war, and major US corporations are ensuring that they are in the game when it comes. The missile shield is simply a part of this jigsaw, and it is this greater game that Putin is really upset about. The Russian oligarchs tried to stage a smash and grab on Russia's gas and oil supplies, but failed and since Putin has taken resources back into national hands, the war of words with western oil interests (via governments) has intensified. They say it's never about oil, which in a way is true - it's about energy and he who controls access to energy in the 21st century will run the world.
I lock all the doors -and call someone. Usually movies don't scare me b/c I realize it is just a movie - not really happening to me. I did get scared of The Exorcist - but I remembered it was just a movie then I outgrew the fear. I pray too and realize the Big Guy is protecting me and won't leave me.
Turn on all the lights you can and turn the TV up loud, it helps me and get a dog!
