Why does US need missile defence in europe against iran? Are they under the impression that rest of the world is as stupid as americans? Why not place the ABM in middle east, turkey or some where closer.
Perhaps:

1. because the Russians are at the foremost in contributing to the Mullah nuke effort? thus threaten them with a Regan outspend-and-defeat again?

2. Putin is slowly but surely rebuilding the Soviet Union, now based on fascist, rather than communist principles.

3. Where would you host an ABM system in the ME? Europe is relatively politically stable ground compared to say Turkey and UAE and such.

4. Perhaps the system is a middle stage attacker, that needs a bit of geography to work? Just a wild guess...

5. Maybe the East Europeans, esp. Poland, asked to host it?
