The US imposes new sanctions on Iranian revolutionary guards and banks.
Asia Times
Putin compared Sanctions to razor blades and those advocating it to madmen:
“Why worsen the situation by threatening sanctions and bring it to a dead end?” Putin said in a veiled reference to the US push for harsher international sanctions on Teheran.
“It’s not the best way to resolve the situation by running around like a madman with a razor blade in his hand.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Tehran for the Caspian Sea summit last week was a key face-to-face meeting with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
A high-level diplomatic source in Tehran tells Asia Times Online that essentially Putin and the Supreme Leader have agreed on a plan to nullify the George W Bush administration’s relentless drive towards launching a preemptive attack, perhaps a tactical nuclear strike, against Iran. An American attack on Iran will be viewed by Moscow as an attack on Russia.
Wild Thing’s comment……..
Maybe Putin believes he can control the Moslems, but little does he realize that future generations of his countrymen will be speaking Farsi and bowing to Mecca.
YOU get real you MORON. Putin is 100 percent right…it’s too bad though your idiot president and other fools like you just don’t get it. The idiot president of the US and his lying murdering gang of neocon bastards don’t realize that attacking Iran is just what they want. The US is being lured into one of the best laid out traps in history.
Regarding above picture:
Is this the best he can do at a Monica imitation?
Where’s Bill?
Putin and Iran kind of remind me of the liberals and the Daily Kos kids, etc – they thought they could control them too…
The enemy of my enemy can turn on me. Just a thought there, ol’ Putin boy.
It’s all about the oil with Putin.
Iran has it, he needs it.
It wasn’t about the oil with us.
If it was, we would have had it
the day after the war started and
everyone knows it.
Putin is a lying sack of dog doo.
Putin is purely anti-American. He wants another Cold War. So he plans on using the muslims against us. Well, Russia has lots of angry muslims in some of it’s former republics and Putin should be worrying about them, like the Chechnyans.
To Andy sorry it took me 6 hours to let your comment through I was asleep. And new people commenting have to wait for me to ok their comments.
Now let’s see you call me a moron. LMAO I mean right off the bat the first thing out of your ity bity mouth is ” You get real you moron”. hahahha
Nice try Andy.Just an FYI for you, Putin is KGB, he longs for the cold war, it is in his DNA. If you know anything about the Bible it is also in the Bible that Russia will side with China and Iran against Israel and the USA. So no matter how you love Putin, whether it is Putin or another leader of Russia, Russia in the end will be one of our mortal enemies.
its not about Putin,Bush,or Ahmidinajad,
its about world domination driven by greed and prejiudes,the US has nothing to offer the Iraqis,the Arabs,the Muslims,or humanities
for that matters,the US past or recent history speaks for its self,.One question shoudl bare on every american minde ,if the US have something good to offer ,they don’t need guns,why the killing , the rape,and terrorising women and children on a daily basis,.get off the muslims back once and for all.go home.
At least the Republicans show the world you don’t push us….You want another 9/11..?
I say Stop Iran from any Nuke’s… thats all… A crusie missle here or there..
But for all you liberal’s… Isreal will if we don’t anyway…
You can let them stay there..people who want to live there, whatever… USA security and it’s allies is a Presidents # 1 Priority…Go do it George !! You Be the man….
I say this: I am sick and tired of everyone (countries)saying the US doesn’t know it’s shit. If I were bush I’d tell Russia (and I mean Russia)that we are washing our hands of the whole damn thing and putting it in Putin’s lap. He wants it, he gets it! If he blows it though guess what? History will show he dumb. :):):)

NOT ALL PEOPLE ARE BAD , BUT EVERYONE OF YOU WHO LOVE GOD AND WHO ARE INVITING HIM INTO YOUR HOME (LISTEN UP )WHAT GOOD ARE YOU TO INVITE THE SON OF MAN TO COME HOME WHEN ALL WE ARE DOING IS INVITING HIM BACK BACK TO A HOME THAT DOES NOT EXIST. WAKE UP , CANT YOU SEE THAT THE DEVIL IS AT LARGE .WE MUST NO BE DECEIVED OR WE ARE ALL FINISHED AS A WORLD.
Just because Putin isn’t from the US doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any common sense. Actually, Sanctions are an act of war! Iran has not attacked any country since the 18th Century. In 1973 the CIA overthrew a democratic leader who was elected by the people. Who was put in that President’s place – none other than the shah of Iran, and many thousands of people died under his leadership until he was ousted. As a pay back, Iran held hostages for a year in 1979. Then backed by the US, Iraq attacked Iran in the 80s. Chemical weapons by the way were used and much of the weaponry came from the US. When 9/11 occurred the people of Iran gathered on the streets of Tehran sympathizing with the Americans over the twin towers and the deaths of 3,000 people. When the US attacked Afghanistan, it was also Iran who help fight against the Taliban until our great leader called Iran, “The axis of Evil.” Then it was the US who attacked Iraq who had not made any threats against the US. It’s true initally Saddam kicked the UN Inspectors out of the country but then let them back in. It was our leader who chose to have the UN inspectors removed because of his desires to take us to war.
Today, gas prices have escalated to the point many of lower income people are having to spend money for gas in order to get to and from work, and then cut back on meals at home. Kind of difficult for a family of 4 to be employed at a minimum wage. Crude oil prices are increasing, the value of the dollar is diminishing! We are spending more money on the war in Iraq and denying those people of this great country who are in dire needs! We have lost allies and gained more enemies around the world than ever before in our history. We now want to place missiles in Poland and the Czech Republic and escalate comments against Iran because in Iraq Iranian weapons have been found. Sorry, on that note, the US is the biggest arms dealer in the world, have sold to anyone they liked, and any country that doesn’t agree with the US is being threatened in one form or another.
I believe we need to read and study the Constitution of this great country before we start worrying about being the almighty to the people around the world. We just might end up in WWIII and it may be on our own territory considering the weaponry held both by China and Russia. I’m sure many of coalition forces will opt out before committing their country to war.
This is why I believe Putin is correct even though he once was a KGB operator. At least he has the fortitude to speak out and I’m sure most of the countries around the world will agree with him. Maybe not all, but those who aren’t receiving assistance from the US.
WT, you must’ve left the back door open again. the Riff raff are slowly dropping in.
Adamwest, you best bet is to pack your bags and head to the soviet union so you can be with your real friends. It is obvious you have none here and none that want you here.
It is scum like you that give our country a bad name. You are alays trashing and talking smack on your own country.
No one is impressed with disconnectd thoughts, your conspiracy theories. You hate America. And how it is all of America’s fault that the world is as F–ked up as it is, it is gutless people like you who won’t or ‘just can’t ‘ take up the cause and defend the United States.
Your elite crap won’t even buy you a cup coffee here But it might cause someone ‘to put a boot in your ass, because it is the American way.’
What don’t you understand if this wily little bastard Ahmadinejad gets an A bomb, what the hell do YOU think he will do with it.
Hopefully we will strike the little turd before that point but if not then there will be a big war in the middle east, after he tries to tak out the Israli’s, but unlike you the Islraelis will fight back.
How do you think China got the wings to launch Missiles, from you buddy Bill Clinton and Madeline Half-bright all for thirty pieces of silver so he could stay on as Pervert in chief.
So bucko get the F**k out while you have a chance.
For all of Team Theodore that commented, thank you.
For all of you that showed up out of the woodwork because of your love for Putin or your hate for Bush or America or both. I hope you had fun, I don’t always allow every comment post from oddballs/hate mongers or nut cases.
So out of about almost 50 comments trying to get through about Putin I let yours through.
Bye Bye
Mark, hi…. and yes there over 50 comments from various riff raff. Can you imagine amazing.So I finally decided to let a few of them in just for this post. Pretty horrible stuff.
I LOVE your comment Mark.
Mark, Adam West was an actor who played TV’s Batman. He was as queer as a $3 bill. I don’t know about Robin the Boy Wonder, but one can only guess.
