The US has a unique idea about threats. I was alive during the Cuban 
missile crisis and recall the tension. However after the Soviets removed 
the missiles I can't see why it's remained a threat. 

otoh, after the Obama administration engineered Maidan as an attempt to 
get a fully armed NATO nation on Russia's front door Russia's reaction was 
completely over the top and unjustified. The previous attempt to put 
missiles in Poland was explained as an attempt to defend Europe against an 
attack by what? Houthis?
