Just when you thought the Cold War was over and Vlad and George were bosom buddies, reality again rears its ugly head. Islamo-fascists once again are the beneficiaries of Russia's greed and desire to reignite the Cold War. According to the Associated Press, Russia is selling a state of the art air defense system to the Iranian government. Obviously, the Iranians have forgotten the Russian oppression of their Afghan brothers in the 80's.
This new air defense system will undoubtedly be used to protect Iranian nuclear reactors from any potential threat from the air. The S-300 air defense missile system is capable of engaging any airborne threat at a range of 95 miles and 90,000 feet, including other missiles.
Russia has already agreed to supply Iran with nuclear fuel for the Bushehr nuclear plant. Regardless of what is reported about Iran's lack of a nuclear weapons program, one can be sure that they can and will have nuclear capability in a very short time. Building a nuclear bomb is fairly easy. The hard part is obtaining fissile material. But if you have a nuclear reactor you no longer have that problem. The technology and expertise can easily be obtained via the Internet. Take a read through Tom Clancy's Sum of All Fears. He was able to obtain all of the requisite information for building a nuclear bomb without the benefit of the Internet. Even though the bad guys already have the knowledge, Big Brother might take note if I were to include links. So you are on your own. But, it is pretty simple stuff even without a PhD. in Physics.
Maybe I am paranoid and Mr. Putin is not the same guy who ran the KGB and is now stepping down as president to return to private life. Oops, I forgot. He is not returning to private life. He is taking a new job as Prime Minister and in all likelihood will retain control of the Russian Mafia - err government.
The Doomsday Clock is ticking forward and everyone wants to play pin the tail on George. The real donkies are Vladamir Putin, the Iranian theocracy and the rest of the Islamo-fascists. Our European friends just supply the tacks and a few nuclear reactors.

There is no intellectual value to the following comment. However, the title of this post inspired me to hum Michael W. Smith's song "Friends" while reading. When you're done reading, you can make up alternate lyrics to the song! Try it now. It's fun.
"And friends are friends forever, if you give a bomb to them.
And a friend will not say never, so the shooting never ends.
its not hard to make bombs blow
You just need fissile material you know
You're lifetime's not too long, with these friends."
Who really needs enemies, when you have these friends.
