Russia has successfully tested an intercontinental ballistic missile – designed to counter a U.S. defense shield being set up in Europe – firing it from one end of the country to the other, according to reports.

News channel Russia Today’s website said that the missile was launched Wednesday from a facility at Plesetsk in northwestern Russia and hit the Kura target range on the Kamchatka Peninsula on the Pacific coast in the country’s east.

Retired Col.-General Viktor Yesin told Russia Today that the missile was “one of the military-technical measures, which Russia’s military-political leadership is taking in response to the deployment of a global anti-missile defense system by the Americans.”

    And “Russia has successfully tested an intercontinental ballistic missile –
    designed to counter a U.S. defense shield being set up in Europe” had nothing to do with Obama giving Russia the Top Secret information on the defense shield treason say I, just like placing the Muslim Brotherhood inside of Our Homeland Security and the White House as advisers which I think lead to the Outing and Hunting down and killing of all of the CIA’s agents in the Middle East thanks to Obama’s integration of the enemy inside of our Security system. Treasonous “aid and support of our enemy” just like the shipment of Modern tanks and weapons systems to Egypt just before the Brotherhood took over or the ordered release of US funds to the Palestine government far to many projects being given to the Enemies to our nation at Obama’s behest
