Ahmadinejad slams Russia for 'selling out to Satan'
2010-11-04
[Al Arabiya] President Mahmoud Short Round Ahmadinejad lashed out at Russia on Wednesday, saying it had "sold out" Iran to arch-foe the United States by cancelling a deal to supply S-300 ground-to-air missiles.

"Some people who are under the influence of Satan (the United States) thought that if they unilaterally and illegally cancel some defence agreements that they have with us, it will hurt the Iranian nation," Ahmadinejad said in reference to the missile deal between Moscow and Tehran.

"They went and sold us out to our enemies by unilaterally cancelling the agreement for which they have been paid," he said at a public rally in the northeastern city of Bojnourd broadcast live on state television.

#2  TOPIX > ISLAMIST MILITANTS EXPAND WAR AGZ RUSSIA IN [south] CAUCASUS.

* ISRAEL NN > [IDF MI Chief] YADLIN: FIRST IRAN NUCLEAR BOMB LIKELY ON ITS WAY. Israel's enemeis are preparing for new war agz Israel, most likely on minima TWO-OR-MORE FRONTS.

IMO ARTIC read, RECENT EVOLS WITHIN PAKISTANI NUCPROGS as from URANIUM-ONLY-TO-PLUTONIUM [or better] NUCMAT PRODUCTION.

Again, "2012" > IRAN + MILTERRS > not just "Dirty Nukes-WMDS", Uranium Bombs, BUT HYDROGEN + PLUTONIUM = THERMO-NUKIES.

*ISRAEL NN > PERES: IRAN IS CENTER OF GLOBAL TERRORISM [ + BTW also is dev NUCWEAPS].

* TOPIX > ARAB JIHADISTS EMERGE IN CAUCASUS WAR [Jordanians].

VERSUS

* TOPIX > TURKEY DECLARES ISRAEL A "CENTRAL THREAT" TO STATE, MIDEAST REGIONAL SECURTY.

* SAME > US REPUBLICAN VICTORY [GOP] MAY WIDEN RIFT BETWEEN TURKEY, US.

* DAILY TIMES.PK > TALIBAN FOOTHOLD GROWS IN AFGHAN NORTH [500-600 ARABS, UZBEKS, + some PAKIS fighting + expanding Talib Base in strategic Afghan North [Afghan border into PAK + access into Central Asia, Iran].

* TOPIX > AZERI DEFENSE MINISTER PREPARES CHINA FOR CHINA WID ARMENIA?, via getting Beijing to publicly support Azerbaijans "territorial integrity" + similar???

* SAME > TURKEY REPLACES [Cold War = Fulda Gap]GERMANY AS NATO'S MOST STRATEGIC FRONT, NOT JUST FRONTIER | TURKEY THE NEW CENTER OF NATO?

IOW, keeping NUCLEAR-HAPPY IRAN + HARD BOYZ isolated + contained between the VICE GRIP OF NATO-EU, + NEW-ALMOST-BFFS RUSSIA + CHINESE PLA + RISING INDIA [Indjuh].

#1  Russian diplomacy is a strange thing. It is not as haphazard as it looks in the west, and it seems in many cases to work better with Asians than the western version.
