Putin's Paranoia

Has anybody noticed the increased paranoia of Putin recently?
He's talking up the threat of strategic missiles, and the old cold war stuff that we all thought was dead and buried. Maybe once KGB means always KGB in Putin's mindset.

Hasn't somebody told him the cold war is over?
Communism has collapsed Mr Vlad.

I wonder why he feels that Russia is now threatened?
Could it be that Russia has the biggest oil reserves outside of the Middle East?
Does he envision a scenario where the U.S. would invade Russia just to take control of their oil wells? Surely there are more cost effective ways to secure oil supply besides military invasion.

Maybe it's not oil at all.
Maybe he's realized that Russia's greatest asset is their women. Russians do have the sexiest women in the world. Lex is scratching his head on this one.
