Let’s see if I’ve got this right = the U.S. supplies drones (Switchblades) to Ukraine but Iran supplying drones to Russia violates some sort of NATO edict. Rich hypocrisy with that one and good luck convincing Iran to change course. I thought bombings have no effect on the war. Why then all the fuss?

The cheap Iranian drones work extremely well, and are highly effective. And now Russia is mass-producing them.

The American-made Switchblade drones did not work, and were, in fact, a joke. Thrown out as trash after early failures.

This is extremely embarrassing for the MIC in terms of future foreign military sales. And make no mistake, the MIC is calling the shots. Politicians are just bought puppets.

You do not have it right. There is no NATO edict. The allegation is that Iran is violating a UN weapons export sanction. The particular conflict isn't relevant.
