What Does NATO Know That Obama Doesn't?

It's quite a long list actually, but the most prominent current example has to do with the missile defense shield.

NATO leaders meeting in Bucharest were set to endorse a planned U.S. missile shield for Europe on Thursday, a senior U.S. official told reporters.

The final summit statement would "recognize the substantive contribution to the protection of the allies" from the missile defense system to be deployed in the Czech Republic and Poland, the official told reporters.

Meanwhile, Barack Obama promises to cut this "unproven" defense technology.
