#1 Nuthin goes past him. Mindboggling, they did not see this coming? Maybe after they got a whiff of an IRG memo about a scenario that booms Moscow first to trigger WWIII, they started worrying. Diplomacy, yea, that's the ticket.

#2 IRAN is close to having the potential to build a nuclear weapon, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said in the clearest indication yet of Moscow's alarm over Tehran's atomic drive.

I guess Mevedev/Putin said: "The muslims don't like us either. We are not immune from muslim terrorists crazies."

#3 I guess Mevedev/Putin said: "The muslims don't like us either. We are not immune from muslim terrorists crazies."

I guess Mevedev/Putin said: "we can't keep our cake (have USA/Israel take care of it), and eat it too (make sympathetic noises at towelheads)"
