NATO and the US won't make in roads with Russia until the escalation at it's border stop.

If this was going at Russia's borders by Russia, Europe would never tolerate it. But, because Russia is the evil empire they have to tolerate the actions by the saints in Europe.

We went through this mess decades ago with the Cuban Missile Crisis. We know what the USA would do, why would NATO and the US expect any different reaction by another sovereign nation?

Interceptor missiles are Anti-Ballistic Missiles.

It is easy for NATO and the USA to point fingers at Russia over Assad, but, there are unresolved problems with Russia as well.

When Russia deploys their own interceptor missile shield with it's allies, no one better complain. Russian people have a right to safety in their homes, too. 

The ABM Treaty doesn't cover these particular missiles and as a result Europe has insisted they are at risk from attack and now use these missiles at the Russia border. 

The ABM Treaty was suppose to limit the intercontinental abilities and submarine launched missiles to insure the safety of the people of the USA and Russia. Hello? Now, the Russian people fact a danger the people of the USA don't face. It is called "The Balance of Power." The Balance of Power has been destroyed with these actions by Europe and the USA. The ABM Treaty still stands, but, now has holes in it for Russia.

NATO and the USA have no replacement for Assad's leadership. There would be a power vacuum in Syria and a potential for more ethnic hostilities. At this point the only actions that can take place are to bring humanitarian aid to the people. The reality is that within Syria there are militias that are numerous and unwilling to take up loyalties to any leadership. It is not Russia causing the problem any more than NATO. The real problem with the Syrian peace process is anarchy. 

Russia, NATO and the USA have figure head leadership that the people won't follow because of the fear they hold regarding the past. The people of nations such as Syria, Iraq, Egypt and Libya have to resolve their own problems. I don't know where any nation has the right to sell arms or any weapons to militia groups. Militia groups are not governments, they are anarchists. When that reality finally sets in there might be some progress made. Until that happens the United Nations has answers for the people and that should be respected and supported. 

And for those 'at the table,' Jordan needs help with the influx of refugees and the movement of chemical weapons out of Syria need to be on schedule.

NATO has resumed building a military base in Romania (click here) with the construction of an anti-missile shield to protect the European countries from the ballistic threats stemming from the restive Middle East, especially from rogue states like Iran, officials and experts in Bucharest told SETimes.

"Missile threats to alliance territory and populations are real and growing," NATO Deputy Secretary-General Alexander Vershbow said at the ceremony at Deveselu Air Base in southern Romania. "NATO's defence against these threats must be real, too. And it must be able to grow and adapt as the threat evolves."

"Romania has joined the NATO member states club which will ensure one of the most perfected solutions against the real threat which the ballistic missile represents," Romania's President Traian Basescu said at the ceremony....
