U.S., allies tell Russia to halt strikes on Syrian opposition.....
The United States and six allies on Friday called on Russia to cease what they said were attacks on the Syrian opposition and civilians, and expressed "deep concern" over Russia's military build-up in Syria.
In a joint statement, the United States, France, Germany, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Britain criticized Russian airstrikes that they said did not target the militant Islamic State group.
"These military actions constitute a further escalation and will only fuel more extremism and radicalization," they said.....snip~

Putin should tell them all to explain just how his attacks on Jihadists will only fuel more extremism and radicalization. What will the Sunni now become more extreme and radicalized than what they already are? Russia's and Putin's answer is.....STFU!
He should make sure the French hears it with a double down to them, and especially you with your weak snivilin and constant whining around the planet. Quit interfering in everybody else's business.
If Putin were indeed only attacking jihadis then I wouldn't mind. Unfortunately Russia's early sorties seemed focused on "our" (non-jihadi) rebels.
