Reply to comment by BeltfedOne in Ukraine Says Its Air Defenses Can't Protect Against Iranian Ballistic Missiles by BeautyInTheNegitive

Most countries are involved in arms sales for profit. Iran is still a sovereign nation.

Accusing one country of international war crimes when you and your allies are doing the same thing is tired. Let's just hope Iran and Russia don't start any "shock and awe" offensives any time soon.

You are aware that would be suicide for both nations?

Ya, if Russia launched as many missiles at civilian targets (with help from Iran), as the US did at the start of the Gulf war II (operation shock and awe) the western media would call for intervention. Too bad Iraq didn't have western media on their side.

Fundamentally, how is Iran selling Russia weapons any different than NATO arming Ukraine?

Not defending Russia/Iran, but if you want to escalate providing weapons to direct involvement the implications are clear what that means.

Assisting someone in self defense is generally not frowned upon while assisting in unprovoked murder is.

How is the guy who helped the murderer shoot kids at school any different from the guy who helped kill the murderer? They're both doing the same thing
