US Missile Defense Halt Is First Signal that War With Iran is Near
The recent announcment that the Obama Administration has canceled plans for a missile defense system in Central Europe is causing careful observers to sit up and think about the global ramifications.
Keep in mind what those who were paying attention knew back in March. Ewen MacAskill at the U.K. Guardian summed it up best back then. He wrote on March 3:
Russia today signalled that it is ready to accept a secret offer made by Barack Obama to drop US plans for a European missile defence system in return for Moscow's help in dealing with Iran.
Friends say the help is going to be Russia just staying out of the picture when the bombs land on Iran.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a clandestine trip to Russia this past Monday, September 10. This is the second sit up and take notice chess move signalling that serious non-public planning is in the works, that needs the cooperation of Russia.
Speculation by careful outside observers is now on what trip wire has been designed to justify the attack. Do the players think they have enough to go in now, or will some type of false flag operation be launched to bring the boobsie on board cheering at their television sets when the inevitable pics of smart bombs falling in Iran make it to network television.

"Friends say the help is going to be Russia just staying out of the picture when the bombs land on Iran. "
Yeah, like Hell Russia gonna stand and watch it's southern front collapse. Rather Russia will make sure that as many stormtroopers and aggressor planes as possible will be plowed down into the sands.
And to imagine that Russia gonna stand back because of a virtual phony shield the yankee can't afford today? HA HA HA HA is all I say.

There was no such deal between US and Russia like 'we abandon our
missile defense plan if you keep out of our way when we go to war with
Iran'.
This is completely illogical and outright nonsense.
I think, it was a whole bunch of reasons, why the US abandoned the plan.
1.) It is not in the national interest of US, as it does not contribute
to the national security of the US, if they place missile silos only
500 km away from Moscow.
Quite to the contrary, such a move can be considered pure and
senseless provocation.
2.) The US cannot afford such expensive military adventures anymore.
The US army is completely overstretched, the US are increasingly
at risk of not even being able anymore to defend their homeland.
3.) Eastern Europe was extremely hard hit by the financial crisis
caused by the US. In consequence, the eastern European
euphoria for all things US has waned and made room for a
more sober and realist view of the US and of the western
economic system in general. This led to major political
shifts in Eastern european countries. New forces came to
power who were not only assessing the possible benefits,
but also the grave dangers to their countries being imposed
by such US military installations on their territory.
