Russia has a place regardless of which party comes to power. They are better placed to provide us assistance compared to any European nations or the US. The Europeans only support for Israel as a people outside of their own racial origins, and that's by and large because Israel is made of mostly of Jews of European origin.

Usually, these retired Uniformed guys talk about supplying deserters and purchases of weapons. They do not have any experience in handling important issues.
