Born at the Crest of the Empire

US and Russia, friends for a year.

After Sept 11., Putin tried very hard to pull closer to the Bush administration, but since then, a number of policy moves on both sides have been creating more and more distance in the relationship. Remember this: "I looked the man in the eye,'' Bush said of Putin in June 2001. ``I was able to get a sense of his soul.''

So, now, I'm wondering just what he saw,

WARSAW (Reuters) - Russia is annoyed at Poland's plans to host a U.S. anti-missile system, a top Moscow general told a Polish newspaper, adding that such a space umbrella in central Europe would only make sense in a conflict with Russia.

Oh, and can I add this?

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Iran has signed a deal to buy Russian tactical surface-to-air missile systems, a Russian newspaper reported on Friday.
