...US kept Massoud and his resistance at arm's length, perhaps because they were receiving weapons from Iran, with logistical aid from Russia and the Central Asian republics. According to a Human Rights Watch report on the regional weapons trade, one Iranian shipment seized in Kyrgyzstan in 1998 contained ammunition for T-55 and T-62 tanks, antitank mines, 122mm towed howitzers and ammunition, 122mm rockets for Grad multiple launch systems, 120mm mortar shells, RPG-7 rocket-propelled grenades, hand grenades and small arms ammunition.

Paul Wolf, GlobalResearch.ca, September 14, 2003

His "resistance" was against the Taliban. Whom he viewed as invaders. Just as he did the Soviets. Whom he also fought.

Tor1 is an excellent short range point dfence weapon. The Russians have sold over 30 batteries of the TOR1 to their Iranian allies. This system combined with longer range S-300 and S-400 in coordination with the Beriev 50 AWACs capable of tracking 500 land, sea and air targets up to 1500 kms way indefeatable.
The Russians always preferred simple and effective weapons from the T-34 to the Ak47. Their SAM systems are very rugged, mobile and easy to maintain. Modern aircraft are expensive and against a good integrated AD system mostly useless. Russia and its allies will deploy more of the combined AD systems totally neutralizing the AmeriKKKan threat from 30 year old junk only good to fight unarmed teenagers in Iraq and Afghansitan. The SA-2 downing of Fracis Gary Powers CIA U-2 at 80,000 feet plus in 1960 proved the effectiveness of Russian air defences.
Yes I know, and Russia also offered a "joint missile shield" with the United States in Azerbajian.

But I guess being in Poland and the Czech republic would be much easier to "intercept a missile launch from Iran", than being right on Iran's doorstep...

He called their bluff. Offered some of that Russian missile tech as a blanket, and Washington exposed itself for what it was.

Liars.

Putin offers joint missile shield

US officials say they will examine Mr Putin's proposal
President George W Bush has described as "interesting" a proposal by Russia's president for resolving the row over the planned US missile defence shield.

Vladimir Putin said their two countries could use a radar system in Azerbaijan to develop a shield covering all of Europe, during talks at the G8 summit.

Mr Putin said the base could detect incoming missiles from so-called rogue states aimed at Europe or the US.

Russia has been critical of US plans to extend the shield into central Europe.

Mr Putin has repeatedly scoffed at US claims the defence shield is targeting rogue states, and has said Moscow may in response aim its missiles at Europe.

Absolutely correct again. The so-called Al-Kaida and Taliban are both AmeriKKKan creations to fight the USSR and bleed it in the 1980's. The Taliban idiots are as much against Iran too. They attacked the Iranian consulate in 1997 and killed a number of diplomats. Iran also stayed out of the US funded CIA war against USSR in the 1980's.
The Hazara are Shia's and the Northern Alliance is mostly Tajiks and Hazaras. Iran has a natural cultural,lingusitic and religious affinity with them. The Pashtuns were armed and supplied by the unreliable Pakis and the CIA. Iran and Russia are natural allies. If the Russians wanted to they can create a huge payback for the short-sighted AmeriKKKan morons by arming the Afghan resistance, specially with mobile AD weapons ala the CIA stingers and blowpipes in the 1980's.
It must really blow eh? When the actual truth about things is directly opposite to accepted "norm"....

Trudeau got in trouble in Red Square throwing snowballs at Lenin's statute before he was a politician.

But that's ok, it was a different Russia back then.

Harper couldn't find any balls if he put his hand on his crotch...
