Maybe we should send Iran hundreds of ballistic missiles.

Didn't we already do that back in the 80's? Konami made a game about it.

Once they get nukes it will be too late anyway.

Once they do? Stuxnet was what, 2010? And because of the coding error that caused it to spread outside the enrichment plant it was found out and only set them back something like 2 years.

But according to Putin Russia is an awesome place. How could they need assistance with military hardware from Iran?

My question is more about why Iran would want Russian jets, when they've proven largely ineffective in Ukraine. In fact, it almost seems as if Russia can't supply enough jets for their own forces, let alone allied nations.

Why Israel does then?

Gotta keep the war machine going strong.
I'm fascinated by no peace talks. It's like the world is just fine with this Vietnam repeat.

Most reputable news orgs (of which Reuters is up there as one of the best) would not be reporting unless they were confident their sources are telling the truth. The sources may not be named because as a journalist at times you can't betray your sources trust in confidentiality

Reuters is a corporate news organization, and much like AP and AFP, they only tell you what they want you to know. Their mantra is; "We don't simply report the news, we influence they people feel about it." A Reuters employee who does not want to be named told me.
