| #5 Russia's problem is Pakistan's problem: the state is failing, the government is too corrupt to function effectively, and the security services are a fifth column. The appropriate way to wean Russia off the persian tit is to buy them. If it takes $5B in payments to Russia's nuclear industry, then we should pay them $5B. A bargain. |

| #3 I haven't heard anything good about the long-suffering Russian conscript forces. I'd be happier if Putin would see to the sabotaging (sp?) of the Iranian nuclear program, or at least mark on the map for us where Iran has hidden the various bits -- to make Israel's bombing runs more accurate next Wednesday. |

| #2 New countries should consider troops along the border. Syria, Iran, Turkey, SA... take your pick. Border duty would be a little less risky than being in urban areas if they took adequate precautions. 76% of Russians just said Al Qaeda was the biggest threat to their country, but today news comes out the Russians helped Iraq remove explosives before the war. The Russians owe us and Iraq about 10,000 troops. Someone needs to pound on the Russian public to make that happen. |
