From a Polish TV report a month ago. I don’t recall seeing any US news reports on this , google yields very few hits…..but seem to confirm something is amiss and these are dated very recently.

Obama could drop missile sites in East Europe: report_English_Xinhua

Mr Obama, Don't Drop the Shield!

LiveLeak.com - Anti-missile defence plans in Eastern Europe ditched ? newspaper




The US has ditched its anti-missile defense plans in Poland and the Czech Republic, according to a conservative right-wing Polish newspaper.

The Nasz Dziennik daily claims Washington has made a U-turn after recent talks between Russian and US presidents, and is now considering two alternative locations close to Iran and in Southern Europe.

Citing an anonymous source in Washington, the paper says American and Russian experts will meet again later this month before a final decision is made.

The US has made no official statement so far, while the Polish Foreign Ministry says it hasn’t been contacted by the US and is not aware of any changes to the plans.

Speaking after the G8 Summit in Italy, Russia’s President Dmitry Medvedev said that if the US builds the radar-bases Russia may once again consider placing its own missile systems in Kaliningrad, and Russia’s general position on US missile defense in Central Europe has not changed.

“We are ready to participate in the construction of a global missile defense by providing both our intellectual input and our radars. We are glad that there is a readiness in the US to revise its decision,” Medvedev said.

Meanwhile Russian military analysts quoted by k2kapital.com view the abandoning of radar-bases in Poland and Czech Republic as very unlikely.

According to independent military analyst Pavel Fengengauer, the move could “cost Obama dear in the political sense.”

Yeah, it should show them the hypocrisy behind Russia's saber rattling on the matter, and we should ignore them.

Hold on a second! Wasn't the anti-missile defense plans to protect the world against Iran and not eastern Europeans against Russia?

who said differently?

Can't remember who said this: "maybe the eastern Europeans care..."

You don't think the Eastern Europeans should care about getting nuked or otherwise bombarded with missiles from Iran?

They are a part of the EU, which is a major diplomatic block Iran will want to be able to blackmail.
