"I don't have a problem with calling Russia in on allowing a black market arms trade to go on"
Well there's a start, Destro. Start "calling Russia in on allowing a black market arms trade to go on"!!! I look forward to the plethora of articles you will be posting exposing the Russian black market arms trade. You do realize that you will find yourself opposing Russian corruption, not to mention many aspects of their corrupt foreign policy, if you actually follow through on this, right?
You are the one under the delusion that I defend Russia blindly. I do not consider Russia an ally - nor do I think she is an enemy. In this Cold War world alliances shift with the newest regional crisis. In that respect our world resembles that of the 19th century era of shifting alliances (ally one day-enemy the next).
I don't recall anyone supporting it. Look, if rouge arms dealers sell stock, that's not foreign policy. It works the same in Russia as here in the USA.
