When Saddam wasn’t home for the shock and awe

Were Russian President Vladimir Putin’s eyes lying when President Bush famously looked into them and liked what he saw? The world got another reason to wonder last week, with the news of an American military report that Russian spies passed information to Iraq about the 2003 invasion and U.S. troop movements. Even if the report is accurate, that doesn’t mean Putin or other top Russian leaders were involved; Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is right to try to find out. But none of this bodes well for U.S-Russia cooperation on Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
