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.
Would someone please tell me how Obamas approval rating is so high? One would think if they were really that high Clinton would have won the election and Putins favorable ratings in this country would not be so high
His approval rating is high like Hillary was leading Trump by double digits
We already knew Obama was behind this mess. The faster he’s out of office the better.
You guys are singing the praises of the ex leader of the KGB. The guy that’s dropping poison gas on babies. You’re fucking idiots. This guy interfered in our elections. You think that’s ok?no doubt about it. Trump supporters are imbeciles.
You’re a moron.
CENTURY 21 USA POLICY created by Bush Cheney for the invasion and control of oil producing countries in middle east —OBAMA IS FOLLOWING THAT POLICY aka NWO
Obama is the biggest fool we have in the white house why don’t they kick his but out
No actually I’m not, the university of Wisconsin (Madison ) conducted a scientific poll in Russia, their findings were actually higher. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/dec/20/donald-trump/donald-trump-right-about-putins-popularity-russia/
Leave it to Tuth and Action to prefer Russia’s KGB billionaire head over our President.
Why the hell would he do that? Give him the source or how we knew? Don’t be stupid…
Larry Redman… That’s stupid…
