#3 When Putin did nothing except centralize State control after Beslan, I worried about Russia retrograding. When they came up with this harebrained idea of resurrecting the most murderous dictator of the 20th century (one of the top two at least), I despaired for Russia.

They have a lot of issues, and they are not starting to work on them.

#4 That they see their country's greatest military triumph in a grinding campaign on their own soil, which cost the lives of millions of their own people, and gave Russia temporary dominion over a variety of hostile nations which drained them of manpower and treasure for a generation, leaving them with the broken remnants of empire... not much comfort there!
