Russia re-emerges as an enemy

Folks, the enemies of Israel are stepping into their prophesied roles.

Iran and Russia ignored U.S. objections and signed a nuclear fuel agreement Sunday that is key to bringing Iran’s first reactor online by mid-2006. Under the deal, Russia will provide nuclear fuel to Iran, then take back the spent fuel, a step meant as a safeguard to ensure it cannot be diverted into a weapons program.

Also, Moscow is considering resuming sales of military equipment to the Palestinian Authority, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Friday. “There have been requests about extra sales of hardware, including armored personnel carriers, to the Palestinians,” he said. “I believe this issue will be resolved.”
