89. The threat is aimed at Russia not Iran
and the Russians should be concerned. Military exports are key to funding the modernization of their military. After Israel neutralized a modern Russian air defense system to attack Syria last year, the Russians literally cannot afford to have doubts cast on the S-300.

I am not saying the Israelis can neutralize the S-300 but based on their past history against ME enemies using Russian equipment it is not a threat to be idly dismissed.
