This is John Batcher speaking with Ben and Ben Taliblu, Senior Fellow for the Foundation for the Defense of Democracy,

about the Islamic Republic of Iran much in the news these last days.

The news is about a bomb in a memorial in Iran, probably planted by ISIS, that is the

assertion, or a targeted killing in Beirut against a man named Aruri of Hamas who was a liaison

with Iran or even a conversation about Iran and the Houthis.

All of that is part of the Islamic Republic of Iran's bad acting in the region.

The news is that Iran is ready to deal, is negotiating with Russia about the price.

They are the members of the axis of resistance.

Russia is already purchasing ammunition and missiles from

North Korea, so Iran is next. Iran getting into the Iraq war in an unexpected

fashion. Again, what is the point of maintaining Iran as subject of the so-called

Iran deal by the administration? It's an open question. Here's Benham to explain. Benham Ben Talibou, Foundation for the Defense of Democracy,

Iran ready to sell missiles to Moscow.

You know, there's a Wall Street Journal's story today that is reminding both Iran Watchers, Russia Watchers,

Last August for the first time ever, Iran participated in the military expo in Moscow,

and for the first time ever it showcased a close-range ballistic missile there.

In September the Russian defense minister came to Iran with saw that same close-range

ballistic missile again. In my view this is going to be a munition.
