“Russian nuclear cruiser makes port call in Syria”
20:041 4/04/2010

SNIPPET: “Russia’s nuclear-powered missile cruiser Pyotr Veliky has arrived in Syria’s Mediterranean port of Tartus ahead of Russian Navy drills in the Indian Ocean.

A large Syrian naval delegation accompanied by Russia’s ambassador to Syria, Sergei Kirpichenko, visited the Russian warship on Wednesday.
“The Pyotr Veliky’s visit to the Syrian port of Tartus is a symbolic event. It is a continuation of our historic ties with Syria that serves as a guarantee of our future cooperation not only in the naval sphere but also in other areas,” Kirpichenko said.

“I am certain that we will witness new and significant progress in our bilateral cooperation in the near future,” he added.”

S-300 and Iskander missile defense systems

Just more Russian defense systems for the Israelis to embarrass.

I think we are getting close to that time that is predicted in the Bible that predicts that this city will cease to exist despite some 5,500 years of continual existence.

The Iskander is an offensive missile system, not defensive. wikipedia

Course, no matter what they Syrians have, it doesn't mean squat without training.
