It is sad that Obama, Clinton and Kerry have so messed up the Middle East with their “Arab Spring” that Vladimir Putin becomes the hero who brings order out of the chaos.
Putin, allies with Assad. His relations with Iran are improving. (Hey, you don’t see masses of people in the streets of Tehran shouting “Death to Putin! Death to Russia!”) Russia sees Syria as a strategic location. They have moved military to the Syrian border. Putin believes Obama’s fingers in the Middle East have left a vacuum that ISIS is filling. Putin is closely aligned with how many American conservatives view Obama’s bungling of it. More bungling on the next page.
From Putin’s UN speech:
Instead of the triumph of democracy and progress, we got violence, poverty and social disaster — and nobody cares a bit about human rights, including the right to life. I cannot help asking those who have forced that situation: Do you realize what you have done?”
A report at Jihad Watch answers:
No, they don’t realize what they have done, and they’re poised to do more of it. And those of us who warned at the time that the “Arab Spring” would not lead to “the triumph of democracy and progress,” but to “violence, poverty and social disaster,” were dismissed and derided as racist, bigoted “Islamophobes.” And no matter how often the establishment analysts get things wrong, and disastrously, and fatally so, they never get called to account, and keep applying the same failed solutions.

Bravo! Well said.
Two choices: Either the Obama regime, who encouraged what they named the “Arab Spring” knew exactly the fallout, and wanted to destabilize the Middle East. Or the Obama regime is delusional and really thought having “JV Team”, ISIS, fill the vacuum. That’s a good thing.
Whatever you think of Putin, he is right about Obama. No easy answers, but with pro-Arab apologists like Samantha Powers as Ambassador to the UN, a real confidante, who has the ear of the President, and was one of the architects of the Arab Spring, you can bet what happens next will be more of the same.
Perhaps after Putin is through eliminating ISIS over there, we can invite him here to take on the tens of thousands of Syrian Islamists that Obama is inviting in.
And you people call yourself patriots. Please do not try to pass yourselves off as experts of Russian politics.I could see you siding with Joseph Stalin as long as he disagreed with President Obama. Just goes to show conservative IQ’s have yet to reach double digits.
I applaud all that our president has done for this country…..if that upsets Putin……THEN I AM REALLY GLAD…..people who support a russian president who legally murders and enslaves half of his country…….you should think about moving there…..i am sure he would love to have you…..visit russia…..they have no rights, no healthcare, no voting rights….an army that controls the country……approval poll at 99 …..cant say no to THE MAN….he will find and kill you…go and enjoy his country….those here probably wont miss you…..
yeah, go with Putin on this…good idea. idiots.
Putin is an Alpha male. Obama sits when he pee’s. Just my opinion
Why don’t you detail each alleged offender’s misdeeds and share that information?
If you all think this man is so wonderful why in the he’ll don’t you relocate to Russia.
Okay Putin- What did Russia do in Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, East Germany(in which you served as a lieutenant colonel in the KGB) , Austria, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Manchuria, Korea, Romania, Northern Iran, Czechoslovakia, Syria- all in our life time. I believe murder and subjugation would be a start………..
Obama and the left know exactly what they have done. Its all intentional.
Maybe Putin can smuggle us guns now like Obama does Putin’s enemies.
Unlike our useless potus….Vlad is a true leader and exceptional strategist. What we have in the US is an affirmative action president voted in to prove we are not a racist country. However you only proved how stupid you were when he was elected a second term! Enjoy what you got now because in reality he has done nothing to help the middle class in this country. This middle class includes the African-Americans, Hispanics, and White people whom have worked hard for a better life for their family. We have been under constant attack by this government through cultural, racial, and economical we have been pitted against each other. This is the most races and divisive president in American history may his name be X-ed from all history books!
Hate divisive presidents…..will probably vote for Trump.
