Russia and Britain can overcome their differences on the Syria conflict, British Prime Minister David Cameron said after meeting President Vladimir Putin in London.
The conflict was at the top of the agenda in Sunday's meeting which could set the tone for the Group of Eight (G8) summit, with the West at odds with Moscow over how to handle the conflict.
Cameron said that he blamed President Bashar al-Assad for "tearing country apart" and the Syrian leader had to go.
But he said: "What I take from our conversation today is that we can overcome these differences if we recognise that we share some fundamental aims: to end the conflict, to stop Syria breaking apart, to let the Syrian people decide who governs them and to take the fight to the extremists and defeat them."
Do you want to supply arms to these people? This goes against the humanitarian and cultural values that Europe has been professing for centuries."
Putin was referring to disturbing video footage on the internet which is said to be of one rebel fighter eating what appeared to be the heart of a government soldier.
The talks followed a decision by President Barack Obama's administration to arm rebels trying to overthrow President
Bashar al-Assad after it said it had obtained proof that the Syrian government had used chemical weapons.

Yeah, he put Putin in his place. (sarcasm)
Putin: West arming Syrian rebels who eat human flesh
This country Putin is referring to, armed religious zealots to kill 14,000 Russian soldiers who were invited to fight against an army that is not unlike the flesh eating Syrian rebels who have the ability to leave the border of Syria peacefully. It's not North Korea.
And once again we are arming a non-state affiliated force with no flag, and no military uniform. It doesn't matter if Assad has been or has not been arming Hezbollah. Two wrongs don't make a right.
I am surprised that Putin still is on speaking terms with America at all.

When Obama gets back from the G8 lets sit down and talk impeachment.
Down, down, down, Obama's going down.

Doesn't anyone find it odd that Russia is more democratic than the Communist American Regime ?

Just because someone is communist doesn't mean they function with less humanity than a democratic nation.
Sad but true. To us in America, everything not democratic is inhumane.

While Cameron is a nasty, evil piece of work, and certainly does need to be "Putin his place" as you put it, Putin is far from a saint in any of this. He is merely pushing his own disgusting and corrupt agenda. If peace was truly the goal of these men, it would have been achieved by now. But war is money.
The only people who will benefit from this are the elite, and the innocent will suffer. As per usual.
