#1 Geez, for as old as Peres is, you woulda thought he wouldn't fall for the old Ruskie line (we're shocked, how'd those weapons get over there?)

#2 If I remember right, a few weeks ago Russia asked for proof. Well, there you go. If they were planning on saying anything what they just did anyway, why bother asking for proof? Stalling tactics ==> They knew it all along.

#4 I also recall seeing some pictures of US TOW missiles that the hezzies were using. No, not old Iranian surplus, but rather new, 2001 manufacture dates on them. Haven't seen much about that. Anyone heard where they came from?

#5 My guess would be from Lebanese Army stocks. Since the Israelis have the missiles, a serial number check will confirm.

#6 Russian officials have rejected the allegations, saying that Moscow has maintained strict controls over its weapons sales to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.

Israel will be terribly surprized when these weapons surface in the hands of Chechen "bandits".

#7 "Hizbullah used Russian-made weapons"

Hell, just about every dictator and general bad guy in the world uses Russian-made weapons.

It's Russia's biggest cash crop.
