After attacking Israel, Iran counts on Russia's support moving forward
Jerusalem Post ^ | 4/14/2024 | Seth J. Frantzman

After its drone attack against Israel, Iran seeks to continue building its partnership with Russia, which has slammed the UN Security Council's emergency meeting after the attack.

Iran is hoping for Russian support in the wake of its massive attack on Israel. The Iranian Foreign Ministry praised Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Monday and noted a phone call between Lavrov and his Iranian counterpart, in which Russia said it would defend Iran at the UN Security Council.

According to pro-Iran Al-Mayadeen media, Tehran views Russia’s comments positively. The Russians, according to the report, said the Iranian attack was coupled with restraint, though this sentiment is questionable, as the attack included 350 missiles and drones.

However, both Russia and Iran are allies of the Syrian regime. Iran claimed its attack was in response to an airstrike in Damascus which Tehran has blamed on Israel. “Russia did not doubt that Iran would respond to the Israeli attack on its consulate in Damascus,” the report noted. Now, Iran has threatened more attacks, claiming “Iran’s response will be stronger and more severe if the Zionist entity carries out new action against it,” a response that is designed to create a new deterrence against Israel to try to prevent more Israeli actions.

Iran wants to rewrite the region’s rules and equation and make it so that Iran can attack Israel directly in the future, and not suffer any kind of direct response.

Iran backs Hamas, and Russia has not condemned the October 7 attack, illustrating how Iran is seeking to bring Russia closer to Tehran’s regional views.

Your minimus brain contemplating the exigencies of geopolitics is a marvel to behold. You wanted Ruzzia as enemy and you got what you asked for, with a lot of unexpected side benefits too.

Tell the Chi-Coms, who are behind ALL of this, FRiend. It is difficult to understand the willing tools doing the work for/against russian cutouts- and continuing to think we can wring peace out of Ukraine and Israel, together- just throw money at it.

China’s aspirations are to bring down russia and iran too, if they can,and get all of the vast natural wealth in those countries. For in fact China is broke—busted, conning money out of the West which the West does not have. That is what this is about. Don’t think Putin doesn’t know. It wasn’t that long ago that russians and chi-coms lined up on the borders of N. Korea, when it became a worry the Jong Un was getting away from them. Remember that? They are not friends in any sense. Just as they were not when the US was trying to stop a proxy civil war in Vietnam which China lost... to the Russians. China is the greatest threat to the world- imagine the back channel comms to/from Iran, while our jacka@@es think they can effect a coup in Iran and remove Khamenei, via a major conflict that “serves noone’s interest” according to Blinken. Winken and Nod still not heard from.
