What makes you think the Czechs would be better off with the radar than without it, or maybe with some Russian stuff instead?
the problem is "taking the side" - we are small nation even with some potential.Czech used to be in the top 10 of highest economicly developded countries on planet in 1930 but we always needed a "strong brother".Now we are part of NATO so we should act like team players and say yes to radar. BUT there are very questionable doubts that radar is not NATO stuff - its more like the next step of US own system to control the US interests all around the world.
1 day some1 (united islamic world , maybe china that you owe money to or Russians trying to get their power back) decide to kick your US asses and I can't see any reason why we should be a part of it just because we got some damn radar here.

I would be most happy not to take any side but its not so easy I guess

True is that its politics and I don't understand the politics much + find it little bit comic - spend millions of US dollars just to pay all security arrangments of 1 president when there are millions of people suffering with hungry
