Vladimir Putin has dismissed claims that Russian air strikes have killed civilians in Syria, as his government faces criticism from the West that it bombed moderate rebel factions fighting Syria's president instead of Islamic State (IS) fighters.
Russia launched air strikes in war-torn Syria on Wednesday, its first overseas military engagement in nearly four decades, hours after the Russian parliament gave Mr Putin permission to use force abroad.

By the way, Putin has been helping Iran build nukes for years.
From the squeaking coming out of Washington, my guess is that Putin hit the right guys.
No, that would be American ally Pakistan that was helping Iran build nuclear weapons capabilities for years.
Here, do some reading: http://iis-db.stanford.edu/evnts/3889/Khan_network-paper.pdf
“The exposure in early 2004 of the nuclear trading net
work of Abdul Qadeer Khan, the Pakistani metallurgist who headed the Khan Research Laboratories and is revered in his country as the father of the Pakistani bomb, marked the public acknowledgement that a new era has begun in
the history of nuclear proliferation.”
Not that the design will really work if and when they try to use them....:-)
Putin is not dumb and knows those nukes could someday target his country
The only good muslim is a dead muslim
Some brave Americans who were following orders from a govt they trusted will not be coming home
We are now the emasculated limp wrist bastion of liberal hope.... Obama’s screw up in the ME proves one thing.... George W. Bush was right....Let me clarify... “ In the 20th century, some chose to appease murderous dictators, whose threats were allowed to grow into genocide and global war. In this century, when evil men plot chemical, biological and nuclear terror, a policy of appeasement could bring destruction of a kind never before seen on this earth.”
Obama handing the keys over to the enemy of Freedom.
What, no tearful apology!!!
My guess is, the number is somewhere in the middle of 0 and 36

No, the Pakistani bomb was a SUNNI bomb. That is why the Shi’ite Iran wants/needs their own.
No, Obammy is supporting the Muslim kind of freedom -- freedom to beat your wife, rape boys, and squeeze taxes out of any non-muslim folks.
You may privately believe this, but publically posting it is not acceptable
Pakistan sold the bomb making techniques to Iran and North Korea.
That’s the “gray fallacy”, the idea that if one party says one thing, and the other a different thing, the the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
Your evidence for the sale to Iran?
The Khan network break up? The biggest accomplishment of the Bush admin in ending WMD proliferation? Hello?
As we all know, Pakistan is an American ally, not a Russian one.....

He also claimed he had acted with his government’s permission.
While Khan’s activities are well known in the West, his first major interview after five years of house arrest amounted to a public challenge to Pakistan’s military establishment and an act of revenge against the country’s former president, Pervez Musharraf, who branded him a dangerous maverick.
They will also cause fresh embarrassment to Islamabad which has been under intense pressure from Washington to allow Mr Khan to be questioned over allegations that he also sold nuclear technology to Libya and North Korea.
