Vladimir Putin is pretty infamous for his no-nonsense approach to politics. He’s also known for not giving a damn for anyone’s sensitivities. Ever since Muslim-controlled Turkey shot down a Russian jet last month, Putin has been upping his rhetoric against the religion. After announcing his thoughts on imposing some stricter sanctions on the country, he said something that is likely to draw some ire from more sensitive Muslims.
Putin said during a press conference that he was not interested in “saber-rattling” with Turkey. He promised stronger sanctions on the country. After Putin’s statements the Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak announced that Russia would be ending the talks on the Ankara Turkish gas steam pipeline, a move designed, he said, “to emphasize the strength of Kremlin anger.”
Between Putin’s relatively gentle chiding and Mr. Novak’s more aggressive announcement to halt energy discussions with Turkey, it’s clear that Putin wishes he could do more. And perhaps he would, if the NATo countries could be convinced to coordinated their attacks with Russian military.

I have no problem with any country who is willing to kill Jihadist. Kill them before they kill you. Kill em quickly and kill em in masses.
GOOD!
What about goat-love?
“The enemy of my enemy, is my friend”.
Come to our country accept our ways or do not bother coming.
Why don’t we hear about any Muslim extremists attacks in Russia?

Needs to get out of bed with Iran.
Everything offends muslims it seems. If you are in this country and don’t like it, leave. Let other places put up with your c**p. This country went soft during obamas reign on terror…what a joke. Putin calls it as he sees it, be it right or wrong. At least he makes a decision for his fellow Russians.
This is exactly the strategy that America and NATO need to employ. Muslim countries should be cleaning up their own house of radical Islam, NOT the rest of the free world. Start slapping sanctions on all of them until they have partnered to rid themselves of ISIS, Al Quida, the Taliban, and all the others. It is not for us to contribute the lives of our youth to clear their countries of their rat infestation. Serious sanctions would call them to arms and unity against terrorist’s very quickly. Call it the Middle East Alliance Against Terrorism, I think America and Russia could both support that.
