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.
no he would not he is in wasting taxpayer money mode now ..
Mike Scurlock I’m going to barrow that
The UN needs to go away along with the new world odor.
I sure hope, Trump ask Putin to help clean the Swamp.
RUSSIA HIT THE HOSPITAL. THEY HAVE ALL OF THEM. There are none left. This is what “Doctors without boarders” is screaming. I know they are leftist thus you all believe they are devil worshipers. But they are actually trying to save lives. I do believe US forces did hit a medical facility on accident. Putin targets them. Yeah we’re the same. I believe your admiration for Putin is beyond unpatriotic. It’s dangerous and treasonous.
Praying that when Trump and Putin are together they blow them
Obama would have been impeached long ago if it wasn’t for one thing!
On the one hand, I believe Obama, Kerry and Clinton and pals have bungled the middle east through their incompetence. On the other hand, I think they knew exactly what they were doing with their “Machiavellian Schemes” following their Marxist agenda of creating chaos.
Don;t have to be to smart to know that
Every left leaning dem says he a trader but Obama let him waltz right into seria with that “red line ” threat. Obama is a joke on the world stage.
