#1 Putin's looking for an excuse to stay on for another 3rd term. Might as well declare democracy a failure in Russia and move on.

#2 It was a failure already 10 years ago. Anyone who thinks the cold war is over has their head up their ass.

#4 Agree wid #1. In any case, DIALECTICSM-REALISM says we still have to trust Putin's comments. The new surreal "FULDA GAP 2" then, is the entire Muslim World + East Asia-Pacific + espec ALCAN-NORAM per se.
