[Light Speed]

Multilevel power struggle ongoing in Europe....Zenith is Benchmark...US Dollars vs Euro.
Nations like Russia watch the dynamic with great import...Putin is mum publically on this...good tid bits appear in Russian periodicals...ones way better than Pravda.

Moving away from NATO partnership is conveyed in these Russian periodicals too....not the first time the French and Germans have tested the waters politically....Russian journalist muse that this might get legs under it in the backlash concerning Iraq and jilted Euro cronies.

So....undo the U.S. Hegmony...undo NATO...enter Euro Rapid reaction Army..with England Spain and Portugal siding with the U.S.

Hard to know the Euro rumor mill...but its abuzz with concepts looking for a home to roost.

Russian media comments..."When is Collin Powel going to come around for a visit"?

Soon. The policy going forward has been enunciated by Condoleezza Rice, "Punish France, Ignore Germany, and Forgive Russia".

Be Seeing You,
