Well, just because Russian companies are selling missiles and GPS jammers to Iraq (which is bad enough), doesn't mean they're also selling gas masks. It may well be the Russians, but I haven't seen any sources that confirm that yet, so I'd still very much like to see the "Made in _____" tag from the chemical protection gear, to find out where it's coming from!
