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.
Obama and his Democratic policies were destined to turn America into a 3rd world country, not a Nation that abides by the freedoms and opportunities laid out in our for-fathers in our constitution.
obama and clinton are directly responsible for the destruction in Syria and the rise of iSIS
I don’t think there is a person ever that is in a position of authority and power, that does not willingly Know, what they are doing. They have people giving them all sorts of information, in which they can make a decision by, they’re calculating and deliberate, So when they make do something like this, they know exactly what they’re doing. They simply do not care as long as their agenda is moving forward. If there are blinders, it is to the truth.
I really appreciate it when Putin smacks Obozo around.

And now the total hoax of the left-wing delusional conspiracy theory begins to unravel. After days of witnessing the left-wing media hyperventilate over completely fabricated claims that “the Russians” hacked the DNC emails and turned them over to Wikileaks, it turns out the emails were actually leaked by a DNC insider who was angry about the orchestrated elimination of Bernie Sanders by Clinton operatives.
The UK Daily Mail is now reporting that Craig Murray, the former British ambassador to Uzbekistan, personally met the email leaker who handed him the emails files later released by Wikileaks. The email leaker, a Bernie Sanders insider, was reportedly motivated by “disgust at the corruption of the Clinton Foundation and the tilting of the primary election playing field against Bernie Sanders,” reports the Daily Mail.
The hand-off took place in Washington D.C. in a wooded area near American University, Murray explained. Via the Daily Mail:
Murray insisted that the DNC and Podesta emails published by Wikileaks did not come from the Russians, and were given to the whistleblowing group by Americans who had authorized access to the information.
“Neither of [the leaks] came from the Russians,” Murray said. “The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks.”
“As Julian Assange has made crystal clear, the leaks did not come from the Russians,” writes Murray on his website. “As I have explained countless times, they are not hacks, they are insider leaks – there is a major difference between the two. And it should be said again and again, that if Hillary Clinton had not connived with the DNC to fix the primary schedule to disadvantage Bernie, if she had not received advance notice of live debate questions to use against Bernie, if she had not accepted massive donations to the Clinton foundation and family members in return for foreign policy influence, if she had not failed to distance herself from some very weird and troubling people, then none of this would have happened. The continued ability of the mainstream media to claim the leaks lost Clinton the election because of ‘Russia’, while still never acknowledging the truths the leaks reveal, is Kafkaesque.”
Wikileaks’ Julian Assange also previously confirmed that the leaked DNC emails did not come from the Russians. The Washington Post, New York Times and other discredited propaganda mouthpieces of the regime continue to insinuate that the Russians somehow altered the election outcome to favor Donald Trump, but they haven’t produced a single shred of real evidence to back up their claims.
The Arab Spring was not Obama’s doing, and the Obama Administration was exceedingly cautious in even offering rhetorical support for protesters. This isn’t a matter of opinion. It’s documented fact.
It’s is stunning and depressing just how misinformed folks are. And that this misinformation drives reactions so strong that so-called patriots are backing an un-democratic, oligarchic dictator is just sickening.
Obama is trying to stir up trouble with Russia just in time for President elect Trump to have to deal with it. The people of the US voted in Trump and Russia had nothing to do with it….we didn’t want Hillary in because of her abortion policies, lack of respect for Christian beliefs, her email disgrace, her graft and corruption….among other things….
Joseph Murphy, US economic recovery has been far stronger than just about any other nation (e.g., https://europeansnapshot.files.wordpress.com/2016/05/real-gdp-142.png?w=550). Despite the fact that it was largely US institutions that were most at-risk during the Great Recession, the US economy was less impacted than many others due to strong intervention by the outgoing Bush Administration (e.g., TARP), the incoming Obama Administration (e.g., the Stimulus and loans to the auto industry) and aggressive Fed Reserve.
Tom Kyle no he didn’t. Obama had a majority of Dems for a total of 7 months, split up in two different periods.
