Gus > I see you too fell for the official spoof about a "growing rift" between the US and Russia.

To me, the friendship between Putin and W is similar to the "non-aggression pact" Hitler and Stalin made at the commencement of WW2.

>On second thoughts, however, I've come to the contrarian opinion that Bush and Putin see eye-to-eye on the issue of Iran's nuclear scheme

As far as I'm concerned, Putin senses W's reluctance to be further involved in military escapades and is simply saying what he knows W wants to hear. And, of course, it doesn't suit him either that Iran has nukes. But he also knows that Russia is on the neocons' Axis of Evil list, especially after what he has done to Khodorkovsky and stuffed Western plans to grab Russian oil, and he must also be as pissed-off as hell at the interference the US has been making in the former USSR republics eg Ukraine, Belorus, Central Asian Muslim Republics.
