Madness! again ... and also, whats the difference between Balistic and Crusie missiles?
If you read exactly what is entailed, can you honestly blame them ?

Another question, If this is a Bush thing that has upset Putin, why then aim stuff at Europe? or have I missed somthing.

If Bush has upset him why not aim at the Whitehouse? - Please note I'd rather he dident aim his rockets anywhere ...

Because that's where the defence systems are going. Active defence implementation suggests Europe/US could have a strategy that might result in a need for defence from the Russians.

Ballistic missiles go up and over and down, like in Defcon. Cruise missiles fly like a plane.
Ballistic missiles kill you in 20 minutes flat, cruise missiles might take a lot longer.

Ballistic missile=big rocket, goes up in space and comes back down again, Cruise missile=a very small jet plane thingy (and pretty hard to shoot down too).
Nice, nice.. As usual the scare mongering masses choose to ignore the the simple differences of the various systems...
For the education of the spaztards here's a simple rundown of the choices yoy have..

Short-range ballistic missile (SRBM)
Medium-range ballistic missile (MRBM)
Intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM)
Sub-continental ballistic missile (SCBM)
Intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)
Limited range intercontinental ballistic missile
(LRICBM)Long-range ballistic missiles (LRBM)
Full range intercontinental ballistic missile (FRICBM)
Submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM)
..
None of them seem a particalarly sane response to a missle defence system being built. So I dont see why its so important.

Just changes the list of potential targets, dosnt justfy its existance.

You seem to have forgotten the FLSM (Forum Launched Sarcasm Missile), which is designed to fly to the target and unleash a barrage of humour, which catches the target off guard, so that the other forumites can move in for the kill....
“WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?” asked the Commander with, all things considered, a reasonable tone of voice.
“It’s a tentacle sir.”
“PIE DOESN’T HAVE TENTACLES!”
“Normally you’d be correct. But this is a squid pie sir.”

You had to shoot one of those down as the last mission in FA/18 Interceptor on the Amiga. :)

Which can of course be co-ordinated with the Jointly Ironic Strike Missile.

Bog, I believe the correct term is "meat seeking pissile"
