Russian support of Iran is very shortsighted. Recall that despite the Sunni-Shia divide, the Muslims will unit against a common enemy, i.e., the Iranian harboring of Zarqawi, a Sunni, and of a lot of Sunni Al Qaeda types. The Iranians will support the Muslim fight against the Russians in the Caucasus regardless of the religious label involved.

The Russians will rue the day they supported the Iranians. The Chinese, too, because they face the same problems though not on such a large scale as the Russians.

Lesson: don't support your enemies, even if they are relatively quiet at the moment. They will turn on you.
