    Newsweek is still repeating Neocon Bush propaganda. Check this (don't start ranting about state controlled media, because US MSM is even worse):http://www.russiatoday.com/guests/detail/1823

    Peace my fellows, living in this world don???t mean that we need to fight for our regions or some supremacy of our powers, or whose have more power. Let???s take from our minds the patriotic thing and let???s start to see things with another eye, and let???s work together, what have some country the other lacks and vice versa. Stop arrasing other countries, and let the develop flows in any country of the world. Why we need to be the best? Let???s help each other and everybody will be the best. Medvedev have good ideas; let???s wait to see the reality of his thoughts. Not country is perfect, not system perfect neither, but obviously US is not the only thing we have in this world.

    comment: TO HARVARD WHITE GUY. you say, "if we decided to unleash our might, there will be no air left for mankind, the earth would be just another meteorite floating around the solar system. " yes, i agree. i would like to add, only a moronic administration, which seems to be the norm in the States, would do such a thing and so turn themselves to dust also. it is arrogance like yours which will be the end of US dominance. i mean, you cant even find Bin Laden, a guy ravaged with sickness living in a cave!

    The Ruskies sure do know how to throw a temper tatrum. Russia as a nation has proven that they cannot be taken seriously anymore on the world stage.

    But nevertheless, it is ironic. Russia is stuck with a war hawk like Medvedev and America now is blessed with an intelligent and soft spoken leader like Obama.

    Is this Medvedev related to the Medvedev who was one of the gang who executed the Czar back in 1918??

    Very good article - a very understanding of Russian politcial mentality. I just want to add few words: Russia today is more a KGB Inc state than only a petrostate. Most of her eladers have formed at KGB schools ( KGB is closer to Gestapo thna CIA) - they have the mindset and the way to act as these KGB people have had - but in much worst situation. Never Lenin, Stalin and other soviet leaders ( except Andropov) will have accepted than a KGB guy becomes the head of state. like to put in Germany people trained in Gestapo and still admiring Himmlera nd Heydrich. Because of that, Russia is dangerous.

    really dangeroys

    It is a very good article indeed - with a deep understanding of what is the Russian political mentality. However I would like to underline one point ; this KGB Inc state is so "*** up" or , in better words, so inside her own propaganda vision that they believe in it. For this reason, they could become dangerous in Europe towards Georgians, Ukrainians, Belarussians, Polish, Baltic staes and Kazak people - because they will surely attack one of them and we , as the West, as Europeans, need to be ready to fight these Russians back in a very hard way - not like in Georgia.

    Russia is no "paper tiger" as long as it has thousands of nuclear missiles aimed at the West. In fact, Russia becomes more dangerous as it becomes more destabilized by the economic crisis in the world. The Poles and the rest of eastern Europe would be ignoring history if they cavalierly dismissed Russian threats as mere bombast.

    "But the Iskander was used in the Georgian war and found to be inaccurate, notes independent military analyst Pavel Felgenhauer" - information from Georgia without a presentation of proofs, like Russian tanks near Tbilisi. Pavel Felgenhauer actually pseudo-expert, I do not trust him for a long time. In any case, there are some kinds of rockets with very various characteristics, under the general name "Iskander".

    Dear sir! You accuse Russia of eagerness to fight - there would be no American rockets in Poland (plans on placing), would not be also the answer. In Georgia USA have done gross blunders - and now Russia is guilty that has not kept silent. Corruption deadly illness - but all gangster money is taken out to Russia in USA and Europe, and you are happy to take them.USA would ask before to criticise - democracy on sample USA is necessary to us or not?
