Excellent -- the Poles and the Czechs got lucky. No Star Wars planned there.

Hope the President, whom I and the majority of the US electorate voted for, will re-think any attempt to tilt at windmills in Iran. Iran has a right to go nuclear and nobody can stop them. The US govt's Iran policy has a powerful lobby-backed pro-Zionist subtext. Give Peace and the Palestinians a chance.

Now can we do the entire South Asia region a favor and get the US and US-led NATO, the hell out of there too?

If history is any guide, the Afghans, can do that on their own, with no help from anyone.
