I like that they seem pro-Israel, but I don't like the wishful thinking part! :-)

Some historical context from this other article dated June 23, 2006:

Putin guaranteed the delivery of Russian Streletz anti-aircraft missiles (referred to as SA-18s in NATO parlance). The carriage-mounted missiles with a range of six kilometers (about four miles) could make "low altitude flights over the residence of the Syrian president" more difficult in the future, Putin said in an interview with Israeli television. Indeed, Israel deeply humiliated the Syrians last year when it sent a squadron of F-16 fighter jets on a low-altitude mission encircling Assad's summer residence near the Russian base.

It is considered part of Iran and it would be a direct act of war against Iran if Israel bombed it.

Seems like that would be the idea.....

Iran would LOVE to have Israel hit them now. They would bring Syria into Lebanon and attack Israel. A war between Syria would divert the world's attention for about... oh, say, just long enough for Iran to finish its atomic bomb. Which is the reason they started this fracas in the first place.

storm the embassy..... take no shit.

We can't do that! Don't you know how much the Iranians respect the sanctity of an embassy. Why, they ... hey, wait a minute! Embassy sanctity doesn't mean squat to them. Never mind, storm away.

The MSM would play up that the Iranian Embassy and personnel were victims of the vicious and unrelenting Israelis.

No kidding. He's put down both our President and PM Blair in the past few days. His "jokes" could have been written by the DUmmies.

There needs to be some proof of this. Pictures, video, etc. Verification first.

Maybe they want someone to investigate.

I wondered that too.

I have been following Putin and his commentary....for the life of me still cannot understand why he didn't kick some major a$$ after that school-hostage carnage. Baffling!

The people in the blue helmets have split once already when the lead started flying. Besides, they would just get in the way and create a convoluted mess of things.

If it is true, I don't know what anyone could do if they are in the Iranian Embassy. This is the kind of thing one could throw out knowing there is really no way to check.

I think I'll send this to someone who can send it to American military authorities If it's true, they might not want that information out there yet so they may want to see if they can't get the site operator to take it down.
