This is an excerpt from the Debka "coverage" of this incident but it does bring up an interesting point. I believe that someone mentioned the bus stop bombing as a distraction earlier in this thread. It may just have been that. At the very least this is something to think about, regardless of whether it was Georgia, Chechnya or Al-Qaeda.

The terrorists also count on Russian security services’ responses to terror being cumbersome and slow. Tuesday afternoon, a small explosive charge blew up at a bus stop on the road to Domodedovo airport, injuring three people. Witnesses at the airport describe the security authorities’ response as hysterical and muddled, which the hijackers must have exploited to slip through to the targeted airliners. The small blast should have prompted the sealing off of the airport and its approaches and flight cancellations for redoubled checks - as would have happened in New York or London. National security services might also have been expected to assume responsibility at Domodedovo from the private firm in charge there, although Russian security is reputed to be so riddled with corruption that terrorists have an easy time operating anywhere in Russia, including Moscow.

There is plenty of news articles detailing the conversation between Bush and Putin in regards to sending Russian troops to Iraq.

I think the plan is when the UN declares Iraq to be policed by UN Troops then Russia will send there 40,000 troops to help maintain the order. While US troops move on to the next theater (Iran).
