Russia could protect Lebanon with S-400 system after Israeli attack

[ALMASDARNEWS] During his recent meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Russian President Vladimir Putin

...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
expressed his dissatisfaction with Israel’s attacks inside Leb, Independent Arabia reported on Friday. The Russian source said:

"Putin has expressed his dissatisfaction from Israel’s latest actions in Leb," the publication reported, pointing out that Russia "rejects the aggression towards Leb’s illusory sovereignty."

Putin further stated that someone is cheating him in regards to Syria and Leb and that he will not let it go without a response. According to him, Netanyahu was warned not to strike such targets in the future.

According to the Russian publication Avia.Pro, the warning indicated that Russia was willing to protect Lebanese airspace with their S-400 air defense system.

"Given such information, it is most likely about the inclusion of Lebanese territory under the protection of the Russian Triumph S-400 air defense systems, which will allow control over Israeli actions, especially since the last attacks on Syrian territory were carried out from the airspace of this country," the publication said.

It could also be simply that Putin understands that Netanyahu, now desperate to extend his political career to a record fifth term as prime minister as next week’s elections loom, could be ready to risk a major and very unnecessary Middle East conflagration in order to continue to appeal to Israeli right wing and nationalist voters.

The Russian S-400 system is already present inside Syria; however, there has been no indication from the Russian Ministry of Defense that this has been offered to Leb.

#3 A paper straw would equally protect after the attack, but what would be the point?

#4 Lately, Russia had a bunch of accidents: a nuclear missile exploding, a bio-warfare lab burning. Probably more things we haven't heard off.

#5 Talk about lying with a straight face, it certainly didn't help the Iraqi's against the US air force.
