"How Russia Arms Terror"
By Stephen Brown
FrontPageMagazine.com | November 3, 2006
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Mother Russia is also turning out to be the mother of all arms sellers.
The former Cold War superpower, where crusading journalists and anti-corruption bankers are regularly bumped off gangland style and the rule of law has become a joke, has just been designated the leading exporter of arms in 2005 to developing countries by a report issued by the Congressional Research Service, a branch of the US Congress. According to the report, China, India and Iran are Russia’s best customers for its booming arms industry which took in $1.6 billion more than 2004 to reach $7 billion in sales to developing nations. American arms sales occupied third spot behind second-place France.
But it is Russia’s supplying of weapons to rogue countries like Iran and Venezuela that is causing friction with America."
