#3 Oh, there'll be plenty of flaws, James. Iron Dome is designed for use against incoming surface-to-surface missiles and rockets.

The S300 is a surface to air missile, for air defense.

#4 Give the "Menatetz" מנתץ, "Smasher" a chance. I'll wager the Jooooooooo have extended the range with magic. Or will could let them check out the MGM-168. Or maybe they already have something similar, wouldn't surprise me much.

#5 Looks like S-300's taint the only thing Russia is sending to Syria ...

To wit,

* WAFF > THOUSANDS OF SOVIET UKRAINIANS [ + Belarussians] HEADING TO SYRIA TO KILL FOR ASSAD, + Iran = Iranian $$$ wage-scales.

* REALTED DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN STRIKE CORP [includ Belarussians + Moldavians]WILL LEAVE FOR SYRIA.

* TOPIX > SYRIAN FM: ASSAD WILL REMAIN PRESIDENT UNTIL 2014 [ longer as Syrian People = Voters permit], REFERENDUM NEEDED FOR ANY PEACE DEAL.

* SAME > [News24] FRANCE: 4000 HEZBOLLAH MILITIA IN SYRIA.

Other non-French sources indic number of Hezzie fighters in Syria may be as high as 10,000.
