One of many reminders that Russia is not a friendly and actively working against our interests and international agenda

How does this benefit us or our allies, like Israel?

What about Russia's other acts of terrorism and in support of terrorism? Or are those justified?

Apparently the Iranian's asked for help as the Russian provided defensive systems had difficulty against Israeli in-bound munitions.
I do note that airplane accidents happen all the time, regardless of who the passengers are.
Israel has a stockpile of Sky Spear missiles, a 6th gen air to air long range item manufactured by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems that was introduced fall of 2023.

Rafael Advanced Defense Systems

Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. (Hebrew: רפאל - מערכות לחימה מתקדמות בע"מ) is an Israeli defense technology company. It was founded as Israel's National R&D Defense Laboratory for the development of weapons and military technology within the Israeli Ministry of Defense; in 2002 it was incorporated as a limited company.[2]

there's only one explanation .. it helps the US that we have an ally, Israel, that can take care of itself rather than rely on the US to do it for them. unlike .. NATO.



given Russia's poor real world showing in Ukraine and Israel's rather easy defense of Iran's missile attacks what is Russia gonna do here? sell "upgraded" systems to Iran when their own soviet era crap is .. crap? let them. poses zero threat to the US or Israel.

No, cutting through the bluster of your reply the answer is it doesn't hurt the US or our allies especially Israel.


what more do you think a couple of russkies can do that they haven't already done to help Iran? unless you show me they gave Iran plans for a ICBM or better still trucked in a few this is a nothing burger. the former USSR/Russia now has helped Iran since 1979 when that little embassy thing happened.



this happened in late 2024. is this a bash Biden or bash Trump thread?
