Would Russia object to a surgical strike? I understand the two countries are close economically, but is it really in the interest of Russia to let a regime as unstable as the rulers of Iran to acquire nuclear capability? What would stop Iran exporting the technology or (god forbid) weapons to a country of group not friendly to Russia (Chechnyan rebels come to mind)? A nuclear free Iran would also help diffuse the pretext the United States is using for it's missile defense shield in Eastern Europe, which the Kremlin vocally disapproves of. If anyone is familiar with the prevailing wisdom in allowing (and possibly aiding) Tehran's pursuit of nukes, please enlighten me.

Russia will defend Iran if the worst scenario takes place. And of course Gaddaffi would also support Iran. It is rather contradictory for any Nation on earth whom posseses Nuclear-weapons, to tell other Nations not to build likewise. The US has capabilitys yes, but not "total" Nuclear capability? The obvious answers to All Wars boils down to "Arms-suppliers/dealers". Money indeed being the root of all Evil. (Negativity as I percieve it). There is an abundance of Wealth in the world to stop all suffering, but the so-called Superior Dogs (Gods) are not willing to sacrifice their pleasurable lifes. However all things come to pass. The ancient Atlanteans are alive and well, and will demonstrate their Manifestation in 2013.
