Iran and Russia - Air Defence for Iran

Yahoo! News: Reports that Russia has confirmed that it has a contract with Iran to supply it with an Air Defence missile system. If Iran gets these missiles, Israel will hit Iran before the missiles arrive in Iran. The Russian Missile system would have a negative effect on any Israeli strike on Iran. But as the report states Russia could use these missiles as a ploy to get the USA not to place its missile defence system in the Czech Republic, no missile defence, and Russia wont give Iran the missiles. On the whole a good deal, not a great deal but a deal, Iran can not be allowed to develop an Air Defence system.
