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 watched Stossel Friday night. I had no idea the woman from South Park has been missing. She did something depicting Jesus,Buddha and, Muhammad. She was not allowed to draw Muhammad,yet no issue with Jesus or Buddha! Who does the censoring for American tv?
Our government should treat muslims as Russia does, no special treatment, assimilate or your out!
Sadly, for those who ARE good people, as a collective group, they are not to be trusted. It is allowable for them to LIE TO DECEIVE. You tell me how YOU would be able to decide who was lying, and who was telling the truth about assimilating.
Jerry Jordan It is very much doubtful that Putin is out to destroy America, for as long as we stop continuously pocking a sleeping bear with a stick. The only thing that we should keep in mind about him, as Russian, is that don’t be fooled by his perceived calmness, since it’s only to the certain point, which might very well be already a point of a no return,
Click bait
There is a reason for Trump having a type of respect for this guy. Doesn’t mean admiration or wanting to hold him up as an ideal..Just that he means what he says and says what he means.
I see no offense.He just used sarcasm meant to actually say that the Muslims claim falsely,as they are becoming fanatics as opposed to faithful believers and practitioners,that they are guided by God (Allah). His statement is neither of a believer or a non believer. He is basically saying that the burden is on you Turks,as to not misrepresent what you call a perfect being guidance,with your own mistakes.
Do you really think that Putin gives a$#%&!@*about what Muslims think?
Some people cannot handle the truth.
Islam is Satanism…
yep an he is right too
