Missile defence to Iran on hold

Russian authorities have put on hold a secret contract with Iran. The contract, which is believed to have been signed in 2005, planned to arm the Islamic Republic with the famous S-300 air-defence missile systems. The latest move comes ahead of talks between the Russian and American presidents set for April 2009.

Iran doesn't want to attack neither Israel nor USA, it is a false belief which comes from the stupid, agressive, brainless and selfish bush administration, now with Obama in office and Russia speaking for Iran things really can get better like it has to be in a civilized world, but S-300 should be given to Iran since it is a defensive weapon, just in case the new world order theory is right

Yankees are afraid of competition from independent countries. And invent a fairy tale as an excuse to attack. Yes easily.

The problem with Iran is that not many people trust their motives for Nuclear engergy. Many people believe that they will use nuclear power to make a bomb and send it to Israel. Because of numerous videos seen where Pres of Iran has said "Death to Israel" and they will soon wipe Israel and the Zionists off the map. Sorry but I can see how their nuclear efforts might be fearful to some. If they just want it for energy then fine but I would be VERY cautious.
