Moscow, April 22, Interfax - Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said he sees the Islamic State terror group (ISIS) as the main enemy of Russia now.

"I believe that ISIS is our main enemy now," he said in an interview with three radio stations on Wednesday, commenting on the fact that "hundreds of Russian citizens, hundreds of Europeans and hundreds of Americans are fighting on the side of the ISIS."

So, what are they gonna do about it?

Putin is a creep, but he’s a ballsy creep, so maybe Daesh’s days are numbered.

There is no place for the 7th century barbarism of ISIS in the modern world. The sooner they are wiped off the face of the earth, the better.

Do you really believe that? I’m guessing ISIS didn’t pay the bill on their last Russian weqpons shipments and Putin’s pissed. Just a guess...

I mean look at all the gear they carry around; it all looks Russian to me...

Not all of it.

Much of it is American, taken from fleeing Iraqi soldiers as well as smuggled to them through libya by our treasonous government.

Proves that Ishmael was not a legit son, that Isaac was the legit son.

Thanks for your second paragraph.

It explains what really happened in Libya and Benghazi.

Basically there’s no nation (beside Russia) which I’d rather have as an ally in any sort of a war against muslim terrorists. They’ve been dealing with it for a thousand years.

An absurd comment, seeing as how Russia is knee deep in bloodshed by its Islamic-terrorist proxies.

It is more likely, as another poster written, that a recent payment did not come through; either that, or it is just talk.
