Iran warns Russia over S-300, and what the news does not tell you
The news today is reporting that Iran is angry at Russia for not delivering the S-300 missile system system for which they have a contract, and is threatening international action.
Here is the rest of the story, and why it matters, and I believe I have covered some of this before so skip ahead loyal readers with good memories:
The S-300 would radically chance the chances of a successful Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear weapons program. As soon as Mossad gets wind of the S-300 being shipped, Israel will strike against Iran - they have openly declared it as one of their "red lines."
In the spirit of not screwing the world up and under a lot of pressure from the US and specifically Sec. Sate Clinton (she is still alive, and still Sec State, not that you would have noticed), Russia has so far reneged on actually delivering the system. This is a good thing, and goes along with the fact that Russia has generally been cooperating on the Iran issue rather than continuing to bolster the axis of idiots (Iran, Cuba, Venezuela).
The hilarious part is that Iran, who does not follow and international rules and regulations placed on it, is challenging Russia, who believes in the laws only so far as they serve its interests, in an international court of law over a breach of contract.
