WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Obama administration is leaving open the possibility of giving Moscow certain secret data on U.S. interceptor missiles due to help protect Europe from any Iranian missile strike. A deal is being sought by Washington that could include classified data exchange because it is in the U.S. interest to enlist Russia and its radar stations in the missile-defense effort, a Pentagon spokeswoman said Tuesday in written replies to Reuters. No decision has been made yet on whether the United States would offer data about the interceptors' "velocity at burnout," or VBO, said Air Force Lieutenant Colonel April Cunningham, the spokeswoman, but it is not being ruled out.

Russia has been the single biggest contributor to Iran’s nuclear development. So, Obama is hoping that they’ll pass this classified information on to Iran? Putin could probably get a pretty good price for it.

Well, let’s hope that the classified data is more than ten years old, maybe going back to Loral and the Bubba Admin;

But if this secret data is real time today data, then this administration should be charged with treason!

Giving Russia data on how our missile interceptors work is a very dumb and risky idea. Russia is not our friend and Putin campaigns by saying he is going to restore the USSR power against America. Plus, if Putin wants all our secrets he should get them first hand from the Red Chinese hackers as Obama is not a reliable source.

Hmm. Last time we did this openly (that I recall), North Korea ended up with nukes.
