    There's also 3 Russians on the space station -- this may be the beginning of the end. Thanks Obama.

    Russia Is Massing Troops On Iran's Northern Border And Waiting For A Western Attack

    The Russian military anticipates that an attack will occur on Iran by the summer and has developed an action plan to move Russian troops through neighboring Georgia to stage in Armenia, which borders on the Islamic republic, according to informed Russian sources.

    Russian Security Council head Viktor Ozerov said that Russian General Military Headquarters has prepared an action plan in the event of an attack on Iran.

    Dmitry Rogozin, who recently was the Russian ambassador to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, warned against an attack on Iran.

    "Iran is our neighbor," Rogozin said. "If Iran is involved in any military action, it's a direct threat to our security." Rogozin now is the deputy Russian prime minister and is regarded as anti-Western.

    Russia Is Sending Troops To The US To Learn American Military Tactics

    Russian paratroopers will meet up with American forces next month for an unprecedented military exercise in Colorado, according to RT News.

    It's the first time Russian service members will be invited into the United States for a joint drill.

    A Russian airborne task force will "exercise with U.S. special service weapons," an announcement by Russian Defense Ministry spokesperson Col. Aleksandr Kucherenko revealed.

    The official purpose of the joint training is to practice airborne tactics and anti-terror operations, such as dropping into a hostile area and conducting a "terrorist camp raid."

    "Soldiers of the two countries will hold a tactical airborne operation, including reconnaissance of an imaginary terrorists' camp and a raid," said Kucherenko.

    It's worth noting the Russians will have access to U.S. military weapons training at the Army's Fort Carson — "Home of America's Best" — ahead of the scheduled May 24-31 drills. They'll also be trained to understand and operate hardware used by U.S. forces in airborne missions including "parachuting, operation planning, reconnaissance, assault operations and evacuations by helicopter."

    It's a trap!

    They are going to use our own tactics against us, on the space station!

    You sure they're just not filming Red Dawn?

    Maybe Russia is going into Iran with us?

    Maybe I'm over-thinking this but this might be why we'll never be able to leave. Cold War's been over for twenty damn years and we're doing this ****. What does Iran have that oil-rich Russia wants, customers for weapons and technology?

    And in an election year, too; kudos to the most soullessly pragmatic country in the history of the world.

    I'm not sure about the source of the article. However, frankly it might help israel and its client the USA to calm down if they know that Russia is willing to support Iran militarily if they attack Iran.

    It would not be at all surprising if the Russians are game planning what to do if there is an Israel/US attack on Iran since it is constantly being threatened.
