And nobody's started a thread condemning them.

How is that then?

Just remember the Siege of Leningrad Sept 41 to Jan 44 it makes Syria look a holiday camp.

Obama looking inept compared to Putin judging by recent reports. If the video subtitles are correct then it seems that Obama is being reminded that Russia supported the Americans in their war of independence against the British [It is said that they traded with them while officially remaining neutral].

What was plaids policy regarding that war and would Leanne be able to sock it to Putin?

Just after posting that I got in the car and listened to the news on radio 4.

First story. Britain has condemned Russia for airstrikes in Syria in which lot's of civilians were killed.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-34432440

Second story. America has bombed a hospital in Afghanistan, resulting in the deaths of loads of civilians and aid workers. No mention of what Britain thought about it.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-34433302

You honestly couldn't make it up.

Yeah, but Putin is a socialist / faux communist with a penchant for posing in manly pictures. Amongst the left that buys him some leniency the insipidly inept Obama and the great Cameron don't get.

That's funny. Farage is a big proponent of Putin and Russia's position on Syria. Is he of "the left"?

Is Farage the only person allowed to pass comment on politicians? No?

The left are generally against any bombings by US/UK and are vocal on that score. Certainly that element seem far less willing to criticise Russia in social media.

First sentence is bizarre. It's de rigeur on here to ignore the question being asked or statement being made to answer one you'd rather have been made because it's the one you wanted to answer anyway. You've done it for the last hour, Flashberry's been doing it all afternoon and Perch for about ten years.

Oh please...

You introduce a false argument by pointing to Farage who quite clearly isn't of the left. The post you referred to specifically referred to the left...

So do you believe that people on the left of British politics have criticised Putin and Russia for the airstrikes to the same extent they have Obama and Cameron? If not... why not?

To be honest Bluey I think dealing with the situation in Syria transcends the age old left/right divide. It's way too complex for that which is what my reference to Farage was meant to illustrate.

And as a "lefty" I don't consider Putin to hold views that are anything like my own.

I agree the situation is too complex to map to an old left/right divide. No do I think ( and hope ) most lefties in Britain have Putin's views.

It's still a valid point that those criticising Cameron and Obama for the airstrikes have not done so to the same degree for Putin...
