'Russia has delivered supersonic cruise missiles to Syria, AFP reported on Thursday.

A military source told the Interfax news agency, “The Yakhont supersonic anti-ship cruise missiles have been delivered to Syria," although it was not made clear exactly when the shipment was made.

A second Russian official speaking to Interfax said the missiles "will be able to protect Syria's entire coast against a possible attack from the sea."'

That's considerate of them. Up to 72 of them apparently since 2007.
The cash was "supposedly" provided by Iran. Bear in mind that in 2010, sales to Syria only accounted for 7% of Russia's $10 billion arms exports- according to the article. Where does the other 93% go?

India ordered 1,000 of the fuckers.

Still, they're all at it. Mr Cameron thought it was a good idea to broker arms deals in the Mid-East right at the start of the Libya Coup, I mean crisis. The Asshole.

That's one noxious cauldron brewing over there. The Mid-East has never been more dangerous than it is now. What will become of our lovely planet? :bang;
