Houston, we have a problem.
Russia and Iran have historically been allies. Considering Russia needs the money, I'm not surprised by this. Still, it shows you where their true allegiances lie.
still pretty bad timing to have any huge arms transactions with iran. especially air defense weaponry.
True... but it's Russia. They do this kind of thing. Still, I don't think we have too much to worry about from Iran at the moment. Pakistan is more worrisome.
Cold war is still here and it's all about money
I half way agree. I believe Iran is the biggest threat to US foreign policy right now, but I believe pakistan has the potential to be far worse in the future once musharraf dies/flees the country.Turquoise wrote:

Cold war is over people. They have guns, they want money, and they have an ally willing to buy them. Business as usual, get over it.

That's why I posted the poll about Russia, they were just sleeping and who the hell knows what's going on with them.

russia sells weapons to any one willing to pay
Russia always sells their Cold War/Soviet tech. Nearly every Asian military consists primarily of Soviet Era weapons and equipment.

It presents a good chance for Russia to give their tech some "real world" testing.
Ex: AK47 anyone?Fancy_Pollux wrote:
