Look, I am no Russian sympathizer, even though I can read very basic elementary Russian and took Russian history throughout college, but I gotta give my man Vlad props for his hardline stance on ISIS in the days after the Paris attacks and the attack on the Russian airliner.

On Tuesday, Russia unleashed coordinated air strikes on ISIS, destroying multiple Daesh targets including command posts and training facilities. In the wake of these attacks, Putin hit us with a solid one-liner about terrorism that I wish Obama had the nuts to say.

From The Straits Times:

A tweet by Ms Remi Maalouf, a news anchor with television channel Russia Today, highlights Mr Putin’s colourful take on terrorism: “To forgive them is up to God, but to send them to him is up to me.”

“To forgive them is up to God, but to send them to him is up to me.”

здорово!

Damn, even though it’s kind of a blatant rip off of “Kill them all and let God sort it out,” I appreciate the candid and aggressive response from Russia’s president. I know we aren’t all in agreement about Syria right now, but I’m glad we know which pesky little shits need to be eliminated first.

As a commenter pointed out earlier, you know ISIS is fucked when the United States AND Russia are seemingly in agreement about their existence. You’ve done fucked up if two of the world’s biggest rivals are in agreement about your demise.

        It kind of seems like all the shitty articles TFM writes that nobody wants to put their name on are disguised under yours! But I don’t really know anything because I am just a board game.

        Steve Holt often sounds a lot like Bacon when he’s being a whiney cunt. Maybe they just made him change his name when he PMS’s so he’d stop embarrassing himself

      They’re using the Kobe Bryant method of strategic bombing. Drop more bombs than everyone else and about 20% will hit some sort of desired target.

    In the Fall Semester of that particular year (1950), the enrolment in the Russian Language courses consisted of one student, plump and earnest Betty Bliss, in the Transitional Group, one, a mere name (Steve Holt, who never materialized) in the Advanced, and three in the flourishing Elementary: Josephine Malkin, whose grandparents had been born in Minsk; Charles McBeth, whose prodigious memory had already disposed of ten languages and was prepared to entomb ten more; and languid Eileen Lane, whom somebody had told that by the time one had mastered the Russian alphabet one could practically read ‘Anna Karamazov’ in the original. – Pnin by V. Nabokov
