Russia didn’t put “missiles” in cuba – they put NUCLEAR missiles.

I still haven’t seen an independent report that verifies that venezuela is even doing it. Evidence, guys. It’s not like they can do this in secret – I was able to find syria’s nuclear facility (the one israel destroyed a couple of years back) on google maps. Nothing’s secret any more.

The US has been destroying scuds in mid-air for at least 20 years. Remember gulf war one? The patriot missiles? (they had to be rebooted now and then, but I’m sure they’ve fixed that). I’m sure taking out a shahab is no challenge. These things might be a bit scary, and probably an actual danger to south american countries, but they’re really not a serious threat to the US.

This isn’t the cuban missile crisis. It isn’t even close. Venezuela is getting some rockets that were out of date in the 90′s, and he sure as heck doesn’t have any nasty bombs to put on the tops of them.
