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.

Good
Trashy site. Putin didn’t say this and he’s friend with Erdogan again. They are both fascists. Some Americans fell in love with fuhrer just like in the thirties.
Your being set up. The Extreme crazy Christians who don’t respect our constitutions want the same thing. But they want to call it a Christian Nation. Beware of False Choices. You can hate Islam but don’t like this guy. He kills his opposition. A False Choice is were you only feel that Putin agrees with you and somehow that makes him a good guy. That is the limited Choice that is being put out.
I don’t get it, all these people that have no fear and think it’s going to be OK. These people are disgusting sick individuals who have not hid their agenda, and people think it’s OK to bring them here.
I guess it’s pretty easy to rope people into a holy war…again. The idea of pitting one hypothetical spiritual entity against another hypothetical spiritual entity, is a brilliant way to divide a populous. I’m still looking for that Bible passage that says “it;s cool to hate the people that don’t think like you”. How bout this…since most religions underlying message is to “love thy brother”, why don’t you try doing that$#%&!@*here on earth, and when you die…let which ever spiritual entity that runs the show, sort out your beliefs? That wouldn’t be any fun though, would it? Because then Facebook would be polluted with pictures of peoples lunch and fuckin cat memes.
That’s good demons don’t like to be discovered but expect angry demons
Trucks running over Christians Infuriates me
Muslims have been trying to “take over” for 1400 years and counting. It is way past time to end this onslaught.
I grew up hating the idea of Communism but I really think that Putin makes more sense than more than half of those on the left. I truly think that Liberals and most Democrats have stepped way too far and are actually worse than any Communist/Socialist ever to walk the Earth.
I would like to visit Russia for awhile . I think they stand on culture and it seems harsh but they don’t have the problems we do .
