What would happen if Putin offered 40,000 soldiers for Iraq? Apparently, one several financial blogs this is considered likely.

I would love to see that happen. I would love to see a Moscow-Washinton-Dheli axis to counter the emerging Euro-state and that other rising world hyper-power, Birkina Faso.

The level of anti-Americanism that I read and hear, from editorials and comedians in Russia, makes me think that Russia intends to stay in the French fold. Putin may be doing a Chiraq, waiting for a formal request so he can make a big show of saying "Nee-kahg-dah!".

Check out Mikhail Zadornov sometime.
