On Monday, Russian President Vladimir Putin remarked that, instead of funding Syrian rebels, the U.S. should have just given the money to Russia. The U.S. halted its training program after many rebels defected and U.S. weapons landed in the hands of al-Qaeda.
“It would have been better to give us $500 million,” quipped Putin. “At least we would have used it more effectively from the point of view of fighting international terrorism.”
Al-Qaeda kidnapped or killed multiple New Syrian Force fighters, which left American weapons in their hands. The Pentagon also provided vehicles and ammunition to Nusra Front, a radical Islamic group linked to al-Qaeda, for safe passage, but officials quickly lost track of the items.
Putin said Russias campaign in Syria is more effective than the U.S.-led coalition. He insisted his governments actions are legal and reasonable because it followed a Syrian request for assistance.

“It’s less than 400 days until he’s gone”
Respectfully, it’s more than that.
391 days until Election Day, and then the Fraud still has a couple more months to do as much damage to America as he can on the way out.
And to the poster here, whoever it was, who talked about the FR Putin fan club, this comment doesn’t praise or worship Putin, but speaks truth:
“If we had given the five hundred million to Putin and asked him to earmark it for bombing ISIS he would have done it... and we’d all be better off.”
Unfortunately, the Fraud owes Russia whatever it wants for helping to insert him in the Rainbow House.
Remember the Russian spy team we found and couldn’t send back fast enough after his coronation?
God this is embarrassing. But maybe deserved.
He’s channeling Trump.
He’s whipping Obama on a daily basis.
Yesterday he called him a mush head.
I agree with you on that point. I enjoy the fact that he is shaking it up on all sides which is long overdue. I like that he is calling them out on their BS for the world to see. I’m HOPING in all those years where he was speaking and donating liberally (although he gave to both sides) he was doing and saying those things that any large successful company does and says to succeed in the states and localities in which one operates. As he said before he played the business game to establish inroads with the political elites. That unfortunately is a component of business one must adhere to in order to succeed.
Something has to be done about this Mussolini of the new millennium. Maybe the next POTUS will put him back in his box.
Putin can go jump off a cliff, I loath the little murderous sawed off commie runt. The fanboys here are quite disgusting.
The Putinistas are either stupid, delusional, or paid.
No fan...
But I wish *WE* would just get down to business killing people and breaking things instead of worrying about who liked us.
Why are you calling Trump a “bottom feeder”? He has single-handedly awaked US citizens to the destructive mess that DC has become!
Hey Vlad!
No worries!
You’ll get a huge chunk of that $150 BILLION going to Iran, when they go to your military hardware store.
Poor Obama. So many more stupid things to do and so little time remaining.
Hey, we all miss the cold war. It was a huge national challenge. And then it went away.
They started enjoying shopping, driving cool cars, phones, mass communication, earning money, dressing well, and posting everything they do on social media. The criticize communism as a tragic mistake and started rebuilding churches the communists destroyed.
Our favorite enemies just went away.
But it’s going to be ok. lol
He’s killing terrorists, I’m ok with that.
As Maude would say: God’ll get you for that!
He also good at killing his own people and anyone that speaks out or has a dissenting opinion(looks at the mountain of bodies). But he’s a good ole christian now that he’s killing some muzzies(which needs to die), herp derp yuk yuk. Some of the people on here either have a very low IQ, or are essentially traitors. I hate Obama, and ISIS needs killing no doubt, but dont think for a minute if Vlad could get away with it that he would not destroy us completely.
How can they be more effective that $100,000,000/rebel?
As long as Putin bombs ISIS and slaps the snot out of Obama, I’m not about to criticize.
Heck, if Putin had nuked DC the night Obama lit up the White House in rainbow colors to celebrate America’s submission to homosex, I’d be cheering Putin even more.
He said it would make better sense than Obama did training and sending over all those munitions to those who are basically the enemy. Frankly, Putin is right, again. And Obama is wrong, again.
