In a related story it appears that our preident mis-spoke during his Rose Garden address this evening:


"As Georgia is Bombed, Bush Mis-speaks and UN Council Meets, Verbeke Resurfaces"

"Reporters crowded around a television just outside the Chamber, to watch President George Bush announce that moves were afoot to overthrown Russia's president. While it's assumed that he meant Georgia, no questions were taken in the Rose Garden. Here's hoping it's different outside the Security Council"

4. Russia wants to hold on to its 1997 oil contract with Iraq.

Russia Forgives Iraq Billions in Debt
...While the deals resolved the longstanding debt dispute, they were also a setback, of sorts, for the American policy of encouraging Iraq to open its oil industry to wide international investment and wean it of its ties to Russia.

At the time of the United States-led invasion in 2003, Iraq had accumulated $120 billion in debt; Russia’s agreement is important in convincing other countries, including the Gulf states that hold most of the debt, to offer similar terms as the government in Baghdad grapples with its finances.

Lukoil, Russia’s largest private oil company, will benefit from the new arrangement. It won the production-sharing agreement in Iraq in 1997, at a time when Mr. Hussein’s government was seeking Russian support for lifting United Nations sanctions, and has somehow managed to hold onto it through five years of war.

8. Umm...

I'm pretty sure Putin is still in charge... It's always nice to catch gaffes from our clueless leaders, but Medeved is a puppet. They don't do the "changing of the guard" thing w/o some people getting shot. Democracy be damned.
