2. For a smart man, Putin is schmuck.

Did he really think Iran would stop supporting its terrorist regime states? If a single S-300 finds its way into Israel, Israel will have every right to knock every Russian plane out of the sky.(Or better yet, supply the states that Russia has recently overrun with advanced ground to air missiles.) Two can play this game, Vladimir.
3. to #2: no, the schmuck lives in washington

putin is smart enough to put the boots to iran, even though they are his good customers and allies, because they've crossed him and done something stupid. and even if that means helping israel. by comparison, o'bummer has signed a treaty promising iran's illegal nuclear programme not only immunity from american attack, but actual american protection against possible israeli attacks, sabotage, and assassinations. despite the fact that the mullahs still rant about fighting "the great satan". "you just can't fix stupid."

President Clinton would also never allow it.
5. Reading that last paragraph...
mark ,   usa   (03.06.16)
leaves me with the impression Putin just claimed suspension of s-300 after fulling the contract. That is cynically trying to make points with west, see we are reasonable we are suspending transfer of s-300 but in fact we can make that statement because there is nothing more than to transfer.
6. Totally meaningless
spyguy ,   seattle usa   (03.06.16)
When will Israelis realize that Iran ALREADY has lots of S-400 equivalent anti-aircraft systems set up in Iran? Long ago, Iran and China worked together to reverse engineer and manufacture clones of the S-400. These S-300 systems are Russian surplus. While they would be nice to have, they are not necessary for the defense of Iran. Iran trusts Russia even less than Israel does, so this is just a bunch of worthless PR. Get real. BTW - Saudi Arabia is a MUCH MORE deadly opponent than Iran.

8. WHAT A JOKE! THAT MEANS TEHY ALREADY HAVE S-400
