I thought our illustrious leader claimed we had a great agreement with them and that their nuclear ambitions were peaceful...why on earth would they need SAM sites around a peaceful, power facility?

Iran has begun deploying a Russian-made S-300 air defense system around its underground Fordo nuclear facility, state TV reported.

Russia began delivering the S-300 system to Iran earlier this year under a contract signed in 2007. The delivery had been held up by international sanctions over Iran's nuclear program, which were lifted this year under an agreement with world powers.

Shouldn't you be glad they are protecting this stuff instead of leaving it wide open for terrorist attack/theft?

We can send billions to that terrorist shithole but the BR area floods and getting any money is like pulling teeth.

Not to alarm anyone, but we figured out the Soviets were putting nuclear missiles in Cuba because of the air defense system they installed. It was a signature item.

I mean, you don't put SAM sites up unless:

1. You have something to protect from an air strike, and

2. You are expecting an air strike.

highly doubt ISIS has developed the ability to fly in on stealth apaches and Blackhawks and steal a nuclear weapon.

this is not a Michael Bay movie.

Sounds like our pussy president gave them $400m, and had those sanctions lifted just so they can spit in our face.

Phuckit, I have absolutely no problem going back over.

Terrorists flew planes into the world trade center here so it isn't too hard to imagine them flying planes into a nuclear reactor in Iran?

They are not doing it to deter the U.S. from bombing their nuke facility. They are doing it because Israel would do it.

The end is near. Buckle up. Spend the little amount of time we have left with your friends and loved ones.

They are developing nuclear energy programs in the middle east and you DON"T want them to defend it? That makes zero sense. I don't understand what the outrage is
