Russia still pissed about this BTC pipeline thing
Russian jets targeted the huge BTC oil pipeline in the current Georgian conflict. My take is that Moscow is furtively lashing out against the successful alignment of almost all of the former Soviet republics and Eastern Europe with Western American idealism. (Astute Wikistan readers got a sense of this frustration way back when).
And yes, this is a bigger issue than the Palestinian-Israeli dilemma that purports to be the Mother of All Global Problems. This is the new Silk Road, and it’s worth fighting for.
