side of history...Thanks g...d, they are no longer important in any way...!!!

Talk about what - surrender conditions?

Have the Russians lost sight of the fact that Iran is the principal funder of Moslem rebels in Chechen? Not to mention other areas in the Caucasus. One does wonder at the ulterior motives of the cowardly Russians. I'm guessing some people in the Kremlin are making a considerable amount of money out of this. And that certainly -- to their way of thinking -- outways anything else.

been losing its hegemony in the Middle East. After being defeated by HIzbollah in 2006 Israel should have learned its lesson and place.Talk of attacking Iran is pure fantasy , so Russia is right dialogue with Iran is the only way out. If Russia had of delivered the S-300's as contracted alot of this bravado from Israel would be muted. To run a country on 'Phantom' existential threats is a folly.

How hypocritical you are being the the ones responsible for arming Iran with nuclear weapons! Gog, your nation's destiny in these last days has been sealed long ago! Read Ezekiel 38!

So why all the arabs countries request the UNSC emergency session if "hezbollah" won? Why Did Sinora cry in meeting saying that his country was in danger? Please stop reading antiSemitic ppropaganda and get the facts. Israel does not need hegemony in Middle East, Israel needs to protect the Jews from the killers that is sorrounded by. Of course you do have problems because Australia is and insland

I agree 100% with you Chris. Israel hasn;t got the guts!

Considering the latest reports that top Russian nuclear scientists are on site aiding the Iranians to develop nuclear detenators is evidence why they don't want more sanctions. They want the money, and if in the future several million people die because Iran has set off a nuclear bomb, what do they care?

Russians didint forget iranians help to checens just like they didint forget usa's help to mujahidins againt russi's back in 80ties so i guess the answer is easy russia puts its proirities in right places and if i remember correctly which i do :) you have criticized russias treatment of checens so now telling russians that iran helped rebels kinda looks two faced :) iran is israels problem not anyoneelses and if you gonna attack then do it by all means but ofc with consequences cause nothing is free :)

Israel took out nuclear sites in Iraq & Syria. Why is Iran any different? Just do it !!!!!!!!!!!!!

the deal with hitler to divide poland cost russian 25 million(of those 3 million jews). Russia has been a major supplier to terror regimes like syria and libya and north korea, and through their arms dealers-hezbollah and hamas. Russia gets blown up by its own moslems but they don't really care about the average ruski. lavrov talks bs. I am not levy who would walk into the gas chamber with a smile on his face believing in peace promises by russian crooks. Israel has to add additional batteries of iron dome fast-you hear and get ready.

Its just another russian pogrom in their tradition. Ca plus change...Know thine enemy and act accordingly. The enemies of Israel are also the facilitators of those seeking to destroy the jews

They sent Rogue Nuclear Physists along with n.korea and pakistan All Assisting iran Againts The Worlds Decsions To Put SANCTIONS In PLACE. The Stage Is Set Israel Has Stood Against Odds Before, We Will See Who Chooses Truth, Goodness and Hashem before the Evil iranian Despots Theocratic Mangomaniacs who have their eye on the middle east and beyond!!!

anton anton anton...yeah the USA helped mujahedeen in afghanistan...this was back in the cold war...says something about Russia if they still can't get by their past...Iran arms mujahedeen all over the world...i don't see why something that happened YEARS n YEARS ago can still be brought up as valid reasoning...the US government is not the same people as that time nor is the russian gov't stop being children grow up and make this a safe world damn politicians are like little children with their grudge holding

Iran is different. It has been preparing a long time for this possibility. It is a vast land and can defend itself. They have seen two bordering countries invaded and occupied. Only if all possible solutions are exhausted should any military campaign be considered. Think of the human cost? This is very serious. It isn't some computer game. What we need is communication.

For Chris. @ 5: For me, you can just won all the battles from the 48, and skirmishes, if you feel well. We will continue defeated, with Judea-Samaria under our control, and of course the jewel in the crown, JERUSALEM! For one thousand years more, if you do not like it sorry for you, you just have to suffer for the rest of your life . Greetings.

as it sees huge monetary gains in arming the terrorists in Iran while at the same time changing the balance of power in the ME. This "friendship" it entertains with Islamic terrorists will backfire on them in the end. Lavrov talks of "restoring trust in the purely peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program". WHAT is he talking about??? Iran is the greatest exporter of terrorism in the world. It has employed a Russian to supply the technical savvy for the construction of detonators for nuke bombs - I suppose for "peaceful" purposes, considering its track record for peace at the hands of its proxies Hezbollah and Hamas and the multitude of Iran-backed terrorists gangs scattered all over. Lavrov talks about "negotiated solution". That has been tried for years to no avail, while Iran inched closer and closer to the achievement of nuclear weaponry. Now that Iran is on the threshold after many long years of concealing its activities and protection by El Baredei, WHAT is there to NEGOTIATE at this point??? Russia, along with Pakistan and N Korea are enablers of Islamic terror and these have propelled the world into its most dangerous point in history - putting nuclear weapons in the hands of mad mullahs. When that is finally achieved, the world will NEVER be the same again, not even for Russia.

i am sure you know in international relations rule of reciprocity applies russians never trusts usa and west and yes russia did not forget it afghan war costed them alot althou i agree with you about safe world with sincerity i can say it will never happen simpley against the human nature the pact in past was israel turkey usa against iran russia china now first pact is broken russia can weigh in and they will just take a note the attempt of israeli strike will have heavy causalities due to russian support of iranians with advanced weapons

What does sanctions have to do with military attack ? How do you equate 1) sanctions to lead to 2) military attacks ?

'Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and his Chinese counterpart Wen Jiabao will meet Monday to discuss expanding their loose Central Asian security alliance to include Pakistan and Iran.' http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CNG.c6eb16defd83bb49882e3187c9eea39e.201&show_article=1

evolution because your moral basis is corupt. History is repeated itsself and you eat what you cooked, one day these mullah are going to use nuclear arms against Russia.

If Israel attacks and the Guld is engullfed in war, Russia becomes an even bigger energy market player, espcecially if the Iranian oil fields are shut down. If Israel doesn't attack, Russia can continue to sell gear and intelligence to the Iranians. Either way, They win. Sanctions on the other hand leaves Iranian economy in a softer position where it can't spend as much on the Russians. My guess, they would prefere Israel attacks, it will them very very rich.

Like the Chinese, they forever look to advance their own interests & profits.

Chris...REALLY? Israel was "defeated" by Hezbollah in '06? What are you smoking? You have ZERO idea how much restraint Israel utilized. Guess this is why you DON'T run a country....your only way of thinking IS existential; that'll just get you in trouble. Get with reality there big boy down under!

The continuing support & help provided by Russia to such dictators as Ahmadinejad & Assad is of the same kind as that Stalin did with Hitler in the hope of keeping the territorial ambitions of the fuhrer directed to the west instead of the east. It has not so far protected current Russia from horrendous massacres perpetrated by terrorists of the same ilk as the extremists of Iran. As in the past Russians are likely to suffer long term from the short term shortsightedness of their leaders.

So sad to watch Russia humiliate itself: it's as if they have no souls or ability to face reality with any form of intelligence. So sad. So foolish. Perhaps that's why it's always floundering and engaged in repression.
