The West's leading oil companies are making a run for Russia just as President Vladimir Putin consolidates his power and reasserts control over the energy business (among other things). State interference in the economy - increased restrictions on foreign ownership, the assault on Yukos and big shifts in taxation - has raised concerns about Putin's commitment to the rule of law.

...Saturday the final assault got under way as the Wolf Pack drove farther south, positioned to swing west to complete the sweep of the city. Alpha Company took more casualties, one a key member that was particularly bitter, as the battle's end was so close. As the soldiers evacuated their wounded, military sources said Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi was readying to announce the end of combat in the recaptured city. As the fighting in Fallujah dies down, the Wolf Pack and the rest of Task Force 2-2 are due to return to their usual area of operations...
