Well, actually, Poland won't likely have the space system the U.S. would have at that time (this is all going off of Friedman's forecast, not my own). The "Battle Stars" that Friedman tells would be the main space-based tracking weapons the U.S. would develop are exclusively for and used by the U.S. Those rogue attacks would be by the Japanese, yes, but not against Poland--the threat would come, primarily, from Turkey and Japan backing Turkey to expand into that region beyond the Caucasus and into Poland and the Baltic states, eventually.
The attacks would be against said Battle Stars from a clandestine Japanese base on the moon, and the "missiles" would actually be a plethora of moon rocks with rocket things (I forget exactly what they were) attached to them to give them necessary kinetic energy to bombard the Battle Star targeted, hoping a few hit seeing as though the Battle Star couldn't move to avoid such an attack, and destroy it--one of only three of its kind orbiting the Earth.
Crazy shit, I know.
I feel like I just drank a fifth, just from reading that.
