No you miss the point. You forget our forays into these countries decades ago. Remember the CIA and all those Stinger Missiles they gave the Mujaheddin to shoot down Russian Helicopters.

You forget all the arms WE supplied Sadam, much of that came back to haunt us in the form of 105mm/155mm projectiles being used for IEDs

Or more recently where in Libya where after-Benghazi reports suggest the reason the CIA had such a large presence there was to redirect some of the weapons they'd supplied the rebels to Syria (hence the ambassador's presence there).

Your logic it seems is that it is okay to supply dangerous weapons to SOME Muslims, but it isn't okay just now because Putin is offering more of a defensive weapons system (S-300) to Syria. Finally, if you think that the rebels trying to overthrow the current Syrian government are any better than Iran, then you are misguided because if they manage to overthrow it, then all those chemicals and weapons system really WILL be directed at Israel.

So you favor this? "The source also said that Putin was ready to sign a deal with Iran on building a second reactor for the Bushehr nuclear plant."

You are an apologist for Putin, and no different than the Liberals who apologized for the USSR. Sick.

If Iran is no different than the Muslims trying to overthrow Assad, why don’t you favor Russia selling them S-300’s? You’re situationally pro-Putin for arm sales.

You may want to ask the Ukranians, Poles, Georgians, Estonians, Lithanians, and Latvians what they think of Putin.
