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.
The problem with your narrative is that there are conflicting narratives coming out of the region, the msm reporting one thing and alternative news reporting another, what I do know first hand is that the Syrian rebels we all here about started when wheat prices tripled and they were protesting for food, then they got gassed , the red line, , the gas used wasn’t the sort that Assad had in his arsenal and Putin deescalated what would have been ww3
Max Brian although you both obviously are versed in history and refreshing to have intellectual rebuttal verse typical name calling I think you both misinterpret the truth in America. Yes some Trump supporters are a little delusional but all the left and Obama supporters fail to recognize the destructive path that Obama has put this country in This$#%&!@*for tat with Russia is putting this country and world at risk when a strong leader could work to set up a mutually beneficial relationship with a country that shares our same interests just with a different power structure. You really think Putin and the Russians like Syria and Iran They hate them like we do but see it as an opportunity to off set US Obama interests because he hates and disrespects Obama as much as we do Obama is an ideological failure His world order his global warming his third world immigration policies are nothing but a socialistic ploy to undermine our very constitution and sovereignty Whether he was born in Hawaii or Kenya is irrelevant. He was raised a foreigner under a radical socialistic family and then spent 20 years listening to an anti American babbling preacher and you think his interest is in American constitutionalism Hillary was just a corrupt puppet following which ever way the wind blew. Trump has his faults like the rest of us but he is no slouch. He has created an empire like it or not he knows how to be successful He knows how to deal with people and sorry to say not everyone gets a ribbon Success failure unhappy people are all part of business. Only the left however pick the nose of those that want handouts or guarantees of success. They all want a piece of the pie at someone else’s efforts not their own. Not everyone will be rich or even make a great living but our parents knew hard work and responsibility and everyone will have a chance for a decent life. That is the real hope that Trump brings. Like it or not his companies have employed thousands of people including minorities and woman and at no point has he ever been accused of racism sexism by his employees until the lying propaganda of the media threw it out there and all the left bought it because they wanted to rather than seek the truth. Whether he will be a good president time will tell but it’s funny everyone is coming up with failed promises before he is even in office. Nice to know you give someone a strike out before he even comes to the plate. Obama proved he is a strike out time and again but the score keeper is the media and they just biased the score card
He is 100% correct.
“On the 3rd day of xmas, Islam gave to me,
#Berlin xmas market carnage, a mass #zurich shooting,
And an #assassination in Tur-key.”
You can bet he won’t be blaming it on a video..
What Obama has done was not by accident and yes, I do believe he knows EXACTLY what he has done!
He figured out a long time ago that Obama and Hillary were funding the same people we are fighting.
What has happened you people are closet communist move to Russia
John Dunning Dems refuse to do that. That is why the are clueless!!
regardless…nobama and his “advisors” did some of the damage they wanted to do to America and Americans…now its time to clean up the mess they have creayed
