Upgraded Iraqi Migs drop from the sky just like un-upgraded Migs. Who cares. Same with air defense stuff. Lock on the signal and its instant history. $160MM for new stuff is nothing.

My question is, where'd Iraq get $160MM? Or is this another loan that Russia will never collect? These guys aren't getting any smarter.

Anybody seen Bin Laden?

Perhaps this is Russia's way of telling US to tell the Saudis to cut oil output. BYW, Russia also is selling weapons to Syria despite US objections. As long as oil prices remain depressed because of US encouraged Saudi policies, the danger of an explosion in the Middle East and other regions as well will continue to escalate. The Saudis are hated by Iran, Iraq, Russia, Mexico Venezuala, and most Arabs for that matter.

The arrogance of the US in expecting others to support its foreign policies while encouraging the Saudis to destroy their oil industries is truly amazing and incredibly naive.
