Eastern Europe: USA ditching missile defense.

The title of this thread is a bit disingenuous. While we may be pulling land based missile defense from Czech and Polish lands we will still have a mobile missile defense system in place in the Mediterranean. This system is reported to be for intercepting short and medium range missiles.

So stating we are ditching all missile defense is not accurate.

Exactly. From what I understand, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Department of Defense want this. I would defer to their judgement.
