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.
Oh is that what the overwhelming population of Americans who voted for Trump are now? “Cultists”?! And far as Putin goes, I’d rather have a thug dictator that does what’s best for his country. Than a a$#%&!@*wanna be thug dickbeater who blows everybody else.
Trump wants to ramp up nuclear weapons. Guess he wants to show the world we have the bigger dickhead. Cause ain’t no one going to win a nuclear war. Yes, I call them cultists. Because they refuse to see any truth, just blindly follow
And btw, the overwhelming majority of Americans absolutely did Not vote for Trump many didn’t vote and if it was a majority of votes that counted, Trump would have lost. The majority of Americans do not support him
One of them is a real man…
It’s so sad you guys believe this BS!
Obama will never admit to screwing this up too… Anyone that is behind his foreign policies are nuts. The dictator in Syria had kept those animals in check for a long while. Now we have obama and Hillary in Libya, and Egypt… How is that all going? Putin just wants to keep the Islamist’s in check.
Angry with what has been done and that it takes a foreign leader to point it out to this Administration…
I never, ever, thought I’d agree with Putin.
Putin has a higher rating of respect among voters than Obama
Mark Isabell right??? Nothing like playing the race card! BLOWS MY MIND
