Report: Iran to provide Syria with $1b for new weapons
2007-07-21
Iran will reportedly fund, at a price of $1 billion, new Syrian fighter jets, tanks, missiles against naval craft and will aid in Syria's nuclear and chemical weapons research programs. In return, Syrian President Bashar Assad has reportedly promised Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to cease the pursuit of peace talks with Israel in exchange for Iranian support of Syrian interests in Lebanon.

#5  Nuke about ten sites in Soddy aRabida, and permanently take over the oilfields. Solves several (dozen?) of our and our allies' problems while we work on building nuke power plants, develop what "alternative" power supplies we can, and keep us from suffering a huge economic hit. It will also teach the entire world (listening, Vlad?) that we are NOT ruled by the idiots on the far left - at least, not yet. It will also give us somewhere to export our illegal immigrants where they won't just immediately hop back across the border. We can teach them all about working at every level of the oil industry, so they can go home eventually, take over PeMex, and run it efficiently. I don't see a downside.

#4  Crude oil futures are close to breaking out to a new high. This is putting enough money in the pockets of the mad mullahs to fund the exportation of their Islamic Revolution.

That one commodity drives the ambitions of virtually every enemy of America. Everything that we can do to reduce our dependence upon it must be considered.

#3  Where is Iran going to get a billion dollars to give away, when they have to raise gasoline prices at home? Have they yet paid Russia what is owed on the nuclear power plant?
