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.
What is sad is that Americans are so ignorant and brainwashed that they would side with the Russian president over their own….. for god sakes what the hell are you people drinking?
Obama essentially called on all Arab Men to push against the West, basically calling for all the attacks we’ve seen since early 2011, it was right after the 2010 midterm election, he was raising the stakes in his mind.
OIL made all the rich richer for many years while American workers prayed for enough money to be able to make momey for bills and food all the rich where living very high.
Harry, You really believe this c**p? Putin a hero?? Boy are you getting played!
Ovomit knows what he’s done. His only regret is he didn’t “super size” it.
hussein is no different than the rest he made himself a rich man by doing evil to our country, his clintons all the elite evil America means nothing to them other than $$$$
Just another instance of a real world leader making hay while jug ears is busy taking a vacation. Odumbo is done and the world will be a far better place without him in any form of a leadership role.

The spelling and Grammer are not as important as the fact that she gets it. She is nobody’s fool. She will not March in lock step with the Progressive, global left. The last real Democrat President died on November 22nd, 1963. Progressives have been anti American since the party branch was formed. There are plenty of educated idiots following them mindlessly. Being educated does not mean you can think for yourself. But it can mean you are trained rather than educated.
US screw ups in the Middle East predate this administration by a long time.
