As an Iranian I demand the removal of this idiot who has for almost two years conducted negotiations without any tangible results than a worsened security status for Iran. <br />I am confident that the heroic armed forces of Iran from all branches will, as they have historically done, take the control of the nation in their hands soon and remove any useless element who believes you can negotiate with people who are teaming up with Iran's worst enemies in the region to physically destroy the progress of the Iranian nation. <br />I am confident the time is limited for Rohani and his administration to show some tangible results from his so called diplomatic and liberal efforts and if that is not the case he will be removed as the assessment in Iran is that the current direction will only weaken Iran and its influence in the region and that a dramatic change is needed which will certainly be backed by Russia as it is also experiencing Western sanctions.

The $10 billions budget probably is exclusive of these conflicts, as these campaigns could cost almost that much. Probably the $17 billions mentioned by Anon 1:57AM is closer to reality. <br /><br />Of course Iran's military spending, even with the 32% increase this year, pales in comparison to Saudi Arabia's and probably is less than any other GCC country. But still for a country under sanctions, and with oil prices so low, the Syrian and Iraqi conflicts are becoming a financial nightmare.Nader Uskowihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02808543185109048956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-18742350011879406842014-12-08T14:53:56.260-05:002014-12-08T14:53:56.260-05:00Iran can't get any equipment good enough from ...Iran can't get any equipment good enough from either Russia or China, both members of the UN Security Council and both pledged to not sell weaponry to Iran.<br /><br />what Iran should be doing is complying with Security Council directives.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-32008121658575978672014-12-08T07:35:57.042-05:002014-12-08T07:35:57.042-05:00Preparations for a new war, or a increased need to...Preparations for a new war, or a increased need to finance Syrian war?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-47244001133085197712014-12-08T03:56:49.347-05:002014-12-08T03:56:49.347-05:00no wonder, we saw yesterday the Israel attack on S...no wonder, we saw yesterday the Israel attack on SyriaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-54045264380148674702014-12-08T02:47:41.535-05:002014-12-08T02:47:41.535-05:00What they should be doing is negotiating like adul...What they should be doing is negotiating like adults with Russia and China for delivery of some airplanes, SAMS and other defensive weapons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-62919082155078010592014-12-08T01:57:26.783-05:002014-12-08T01:57:26.783-05:00the official defense budget is not really the exte...the official defense budget is not really the extent of military expenditures by Iran and other estimates put the total in 2013 to be 17 billion dollars.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
