'EDUCATIONAL": That's how President Vladimir Putin's entourage described the Russian's recent whirlwind trip to Tehran.

Islamic Republic President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad hyped the 36-hour visit as a "historic event." Some Western commentators even suggested that Putin and Ahmadinejad planned to create an axis to counter Western influence in the Middle East.

Ahmadinejad planned to create an axis to counter Western influence in the Middle East.

It is in our future, could be 5, 10 or 20 years out. You can already see signs of it now, helping them build the nuclear reactor, supplying them with lots of weapons, Russia and Iran (Persia) will unite against Isreal, for truly the mother of all battles, Armageddeon.

He’s probably atheist or at least agnostic.

Putin is Russian Orthodox.

President Vladimir Putin had better wake up and smell the roses, they could care less about the help and backing he gives to them. When it’s all said and done he is no different than any other person in the eyes of these morons.

Convert or die is the only choice.

Putin seems clueless about religious fanatics.

Only an idiot or a servant of evil could witness the Islamofascist massacre at Beslan and then aid an Islamic dictatorship in developing nuclear weapons.

Maybe this special Iranian went outside to read their history with Russia.

"The Iranians think they have already won... So intoxicated they appeared with hubris that they did not even ask Putin to help them ward off further United Nations sanctions. ...It was as if Russia needed Iran, not the other way round..."

The fruits of appeasement. Of course they are right, Putin does need them. He needs them to be proxies in his war to push the US out of Iraq and Afghanistan. By choosing to be America's enemy, he has thrown his lot in with the global jihad. He might as well convert to Islam, he is already an honorary mohammedan just like his comrades Hugo and Fidel.

“I think it’s one thing to hear about them, quite another to actually try to deal with them.”

Bingo. Putin is nothing if not pragmatic, and oriented on building a power-base piece-by-piece, with rational long-term objectives in mind. Surely his dealings with various world leaders have shown him that most are either similar to him or rather more corrupt and subject to influence if it works in their interests to some degree or other.

It must be an eye-opener to come fact to face with heads of a nuclear state that borrow lines from the street-corner preacher of doom.

“Bingo. Putin is nothing if not pragmatic, and oriented on building a power-base piece-by-piece, with rational long-term objectives in mind.”

I will add that he has done a pretty darn good job from his perspective on a domestic level, with apparently more state control of resources, and political control of the State than ever before, even with public assassinations of dissidents and maybe even intimidation/assault of an *AMERICAN* TV commentator who spoke disparagingly of his regime after the radioactivity assassination.

Sucks for the US, but one couldn’t hope to have a yeltsin forever.
