Well, even Palestinians rather aren't stupid enough to attack Israelis with Mi-17.

I was just thinking. (I know, dangerous)

Don't they need 'pilots' to fly them?

Gonna be kinda hard to find a flight school that teaches them landings as well as 'banking and crashing'.

Good!

Let Hamas buy their junk, Israelis will destroy their crap at will, and the cycle will go on.

I did like this comment though....

"The Russian government may sign an arms deal with Hamas during a scheduled visit by the terror group’s leaders to Moscow,..."

Imagine that, a "terror group" running a potential independent state.

My first thoughts, as well.
And I like the post that follows your that suggests the IDF sell equipment to the Chechen's in return.

Well, one good thing about this is that if they are armed and make any kind of move on Israel, Israel can wipe them all off the planet.

This is wonderful news!
Considering the Russian reputation for quality design and construction, and the arab's track record of absolute incompetence in maintaining anything with moving parts; anything more complicated than a wheelbarrow...
