#1 Or, what I am hearing is Bush is telling Putie:

"We are willing to work with you on protecting everyone from rogue nuke attacks, but we sure as hell don't trust you to get it right so we are keeping our own system separate."

#2 Transparent attempt by Putin to split NATO. Same old trick that they were using in the 70's & 80's.

#3 HINDU.com > Russia-China repeat calls for NON-US DOMINATED, "MULTI-POLAR" WORLD. Key phrase or premise here being NON-US DOMINATED. Russia's greatest post-Cold War fear remains China's usurpation of Russia's role as self-proclaimed, primary counter = anti-USA/Western nation in Eurasia + World + future OWG. As for anti-US ABM = anti-GMD, WORK CONTINUES IN BOTH RUSSIA + CHINA ON END/TERMINAL-STAGE MANEUVER MISSLE TECH. DUMB OR MIRV-TYPE WARHEADS WILL BASICALLY BECOME MICRO-INTELLIGENT UAVS.

#5 Do we need to defend Euros? It would be cheaper to make some arrangement with Vlad. We are too close to the Saudis and they are too close to Iran. That could change, should common sense prevail.

Read the full text of Vlad's post G8 press conference. Am we missing something?

#6 This would remove a great deal of concern and mutual suspicion, but it would also entail the exchange of technologies.

ZERO technology exchange with Russia. We all know where it'll end up next.
