Russia: Russia Demands 'Proof' of Iranian Islamic Bomb
Russia is just acting as a good ally, that's all. It is just a shame they are an ally of Iran, and not of us: Russia Will Not Agree to Iran Sanctions Without Proof
Russia says again it will not agree to sanctions against Iran until Moscow sees hard evidence that Tehran's nuclear program is not for peaceful purposes.Itar-Tass news agency quotes a Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mikhail Kamynin as saying Russia will be able to talk about sanctions after seeing "concrete facts" about Iran's nuclear activities.
Russia has said the International Atomic Energy Agency should be allowed to handle the Iranian dispute. However, the United States said Thursday that momentum is shifting toward the imposition of U.N. sanctions against Iran.
A U.S. State Department spokesman, Sean McCormack, said without a major change in Iran's attitude, Washington will seek a U.N. resolution to require Tehran to suspend its uranium enrichment program.
No, the momentum is finally shifting toward bombing the Islamic pride out of Iran, whether the State Department mavens think so or not.

I suspect Russia demands proof because if the Truth were known there might be a little public humiliation. I suspect Russia has looked the other way while Iran enriched nuclear technology as well as dropped a few lost nukes in Iranian hands.
