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.

Panels Swink B******t. YOU are letting Obumma/ISIS off the hook for murdering Syrian Christians and then blaming Assad for rightfully fighting against them. Assad isn’t killing fellow Muslims. He is an atheist and has a secular govt. You must be watching the US’s lying LameStreamMedia. That’s why you have no clue what is going on. This manufactured war is about an oil pipeline. Research it.
Typical republican can’t remember history to save your life the suppling of Islamic extremist started with Reagan. You just want to politicize rather then get to the root of the problem. The death of Christians turns you on because you see it as political opportunity. Like Rev. Sharp to whom every conflict between black and white must be racially motivate, no real concern about solving the problem and no attention ever paid to successes in racial peace. I sick of Republican and Democrat sickos getting all the attention.
I don’t feel we should show any sensitivity towards any religious extremeists, Muslims or otherwise. It’s one thing if someone has a deeply held belief, but it’s quite another if they are willing to kill you over it. I’m hosting two Muslim exchange students this year, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it.
Who cares if Moslems are offended. I think they should all be sprayed down with pigs blood.
I never thought I’d say this about a Russian leader, but I really like Putin
Good for Putin!!
Putin has far more balls and guts then any Western European our American Politician.

Joseph Gilbert I like how the left uses words and accusations. No proof just accusations and reference to 17 investigative agencies who agree and then disagree. Take the focus off what was in those emails and turn it around to suit their agenda. The left and this administration has lost all credibility and ignores the fact that all countries, including the U.S. engage in cyberwarfare. In fact we hacked Israels elections but we are the supposed good guys being hacked!
Awww…..aint that terrible?
Takes one to know one.
