| #10 Putin's price is being the sole hyperpower, or at least the superpower of Europe Not sure of that. More motivated by lucre than by power, I think. If he wanted power, he'd not have presided over the destruction of Russian technology, science, military prowess etc. Also would have forged an alliance with China by now. No, I think he's another version of John Gotti. A mafioso in a Brioni suit. |

| #8 Maybe we should ask Putin what his price is. Putin's price is being the sole hyperpower, or at least the superpower of Europe. We can't afford that. |

| #6 A pity the Russian state has been criminalized. If we and the Russians were to reach some sort of accommodation, let alone alliance, imagine how much easier the war on terror would be for us. Full court press on Iran, for starters. Maybe we should ask Putin what his price is. Can't be much more expensive than a TARP or two. |

| #3 "yet if they kick the shit out of the terro groups there would be an international outcry kinda like when the US or Israel does it" Maybe, chris, but the Russians won't give a sh*t. (Actually, I don't either, but the vocal Lefties and the MSM - but I repeat myself - sure seem to.) |

| #2 Perhaps if they stopped holding hands with the major financiers and promoters of that terrorism the would have more credibility. |
