Russian security services had been told suicide bombers and kidnappers were training to kill or capture Vladimir Putin.

Gotta say, it would be poetic justice, as Vlad has been energetically arming every terrorist he can find as long as the checks clear.

I would agree. But how much stronger would a failed attempt make Putin in his own country. Russia and Iran are as thick as thieves. And Putin is in power consolidation mode. Very interesting news, this.

Putin sees himself a big friend of the Muslims in Iran. Those who are sympathetic with Chechnya may not quite see it that way. And they may or may not be close to the government.

IMO, Putin is making a colossal mistake. He should be aligning with the west. Instead he seems to be aligning with China and the fickle Islamofascits.

Who does Putin think China and those islamofascists will go after next, if the west is neutered?

We’re not interested in taking Russia over. We could exist in peace with them from here on out. And they have much more in common with the west than they do the east.

Well, Putin better wake up or he’s going to be speaking Mandarin before his lights go out.

Yeah, but they have the right to be pissed about the shoddy air defense equipment he’s been selling them.

That’s surrender monkey propaganda from our own. The Iranian leadership is now thrilled at the hints of increasing military support in the near future from Russia. The constituents with the most say here are still screeching at our politicians to stay out of Iran and to make friends with neo-fascist-commie United Russia Party leaders.

“...putin is the one that is helping them get nukes, why would they want to kill him?”

There may be Russians that are allowed to sell military hardware to vehemently anti-American types; yet, the same agents (perhaps even state-sponsored) are also selling the methods to defeat this warfighting technology to America (and Israel, like America, Russia has a lot of Jews).

Thus, Vlad has doubled his profits by selling the same military hardware twice. Once to a belligerant, and twice to his Western cousins and Christian/Jewish brothers.

If I were Putin, I’d stay home. The Iranian president was trained as a suicide soldier as a youth. He’s a figure head with genius for rhetoric. Clerics behind the scene are pulling puppet strings. But that’s not to say that the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad isn’t intelligent nor unwilling. He’s quite gifted and skilled...but also suicidal/homicidal. He wants to meet great Western giants and murder them. Russia is part of the Western society, though it’s quite unique from the rest of Europe and America. When the Soviets ruled, there was more than a few drops of blood spilled over places like Afghanistan. And, there’s still a bit of gun play and bombings in other areas where Russia meets Middle East. Historically, the Middle East has constantly been at war with Russia.

If Bush won’t meet with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, then why should Putin? Vlad, please stick to text messaging.

I smell a bit of a disinformation campaign....give Putin an out.

If he takes the out....that says one thing

If he doesn't, that says another...

I think he's being given one last chance to pick a side...

This wil be interesting to watch...

There just isn't much to say after it's been posted 50 times.

What's more can one say other than- it would be a good thing if he was.

A great quote from Lord of War.

Yuri Orlov: "Back then, I didn't sell to Osama Bin Laden. Not because of moral reasons, but because he was always bouncing checks."
