I’M SHOCKED, SHOCKED TO HEAR THAT PUTIN MIGHT HAVE DOUBLE-CROSSED SOMEONE: Iran Charges Russia With Selling Out its Air Defense Secrets to Israel: The Islamic Republic says Russia sold codes to Israel that neutralize its air defenses.

If true, this bodes poorly for the Iranian government, not only because Putin fleeced them, but because he assesses their situation as one in which he can fleece them with impunity. Alternatively, the Israelis figured it out on their own but successfully duped the Iranians into blaming Putin, which doesn’t make the Iranians look good either.
