Russian President Vladimir Putin has extended a hand out to the West, urging Western leaders to put aside their differences with his country and join him in a coalition against ISIS.
Citing the Paris attacks last weekend, the Russian leader said that now was an opportunity for the world to crush the Islamic State once and for all. Stating in a telegram to French President Francois Hollande, Putin argued, “This tragedy is another proof of the barbarian nature of terrorism, which challenges the human civilization. Clearly, for effective fighting this evil, the entire international community should unite their efforts.”
This unexpected overture on Putin’s part is even surprising given Russia’s recent frosty relations with the U.S. and it’s allies, stemming from it’s 2014 annexation of Crimea and subsequent behavior in the rest of Ukraine. Today, however, it is waging an air campaign against ISIS in Syria, an effort in which the country has now shown that it would like to cooperate with others.

this man is a leader, i dont believe in communism but at least he leads. our POS is a three year old pansy
That’s the truth Mark! I have never trusted Obama!
He’s more of a patriot than Obumer
That’s because they have a real leader, we don’t.
No, I love everything about this country except our Commander in Thief and his stupid policies
Putin doesn’t seem to be afraid of anything!
But as much as i like what he is doing he has an agenda!
I hope we wouldn’t send tips to Russia KGB! We sure don’t want KGB here in the USA acting militarily! Better to demand of Congress that they take control of the inept Executive Branch. The Executive is supposed to be under the control of Congress (Art. I, Sect. 8). The only really independent power the President has is the power to pardon. All the Federal departments are accountable to Congress specifically! This is our Constitution!
Mr Putin just take out our trash first! You do have a good track record of taking people out!
Jihad, right?
