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.
Democrats have insulted a country over and over to start a war it is outrages the courage it took for puttin not to act on what the democrats have done is outrages
Jack you can type in all Capitol letters doesn’t mean your right. Now please show me where I said anything about people needed assistance or them taking anyones guns? Show one just one piece of evidence that Putin helped Trump. Just because the news says it doesn’t make it so. Russia might have but they didn’t put Trump in office. Now I am all for help people who truly need help like our elderly, our vets, our homeless. What pisses me off are those who take advantage of it and use the system like a job. What should make you mad is how the liberals stopped Ivanka Trump from having coffee with people to raise 70k for Saint Jude. No, they call that pay to play. What a joke. What was an act of terrorism is the things that Hillary done. If America would take the money that is spent on all the refugees then we could help those vets, elderly and homeless right here. So if that makes me a commie so be it. I will tell you the same thing I told Jason. I’m not scooping to name calling because that is childish. You have the right to think whatever you like.
For President Barack Obama, picking up a pen and signing an executive order is half the battle.
Fred Holnagel Guess you’d like a Syrian boyfriend for your grand daughter.Obama=traitor, divider, liar, rioter condoner, police and blm caos creater, terrorist creater and condoner, isis sympathizer and should be hung or shot for treason. Now we have a LEADER that love America and will put legal Americans first, unlike the traitor that di everything to weaken America and destroy her. WAKE UP!
Executive Orders do not require Congressional approval to take effect but they have the same legal weight as laws passed by Congress. The President’s source of authority to issue Executive Orders can be found in the Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution which grants to the President the “executive Power again he doesn’t need them
We should have left the Middle East alone. The Towers were Saudi’s not Iraqi’s or really anything else. The Saudi’s back all the terrorist organizations. If we were going to bomb someone would should have bombed them. But due to Mecca being located there, if something were to happen there you would have the entire world pissed and they know this. Just garbage.
Get the$#%&!@*off of my timeline . Your ‘truth’ page is just about as ‘truthful’ as the harry potter movies.
Wow, the Right showing it’s true colors, and they are RED.
Kissing up to this communist? Hell, most of the current middle east situation has it’s roots in The Russian invasion of Afghanistan. And the struggle to keep Russia from taking over the Middle East for the oil and for something Russia needs even more than oil: Ports.
We really are headed towards the USSA, Conflagrations Comrades.
Jack Maggard True! So many of these people here are so stupid and racist, it’s quite sad.
Obama doesn’t know$#%&!@*
