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.
UH, YES HE DOES, he is a filth muzzie
Obama and his staff have painted Putin as the bad guy in this war between the rebels and the Assad government but this isn’t true. The hospitals being bombed were destroyed by the rebels and ISIS. So why were we arming the rebels which prolonged the war and caused thousands of deaths. No Putin isn’t a hero but Obama has screwed up with indecision and bad judgement.
Missed another putt?
Wow. The truth without propaganda liberal media. They know but will never take blame but always accuse someone else. They have set our Great Country back many years. The last of the Great Liberals John Kennedy are no longer. It’s no longer what we can do for our Country but what can our Country do for us. We we seen it. Divide Us.
Go Putin check that scum bag i will look the other way if you put a round between his eyes he’s pure evil
Jack don’t waste your time with these people they have no concept of anything…… they’re confused they’re brainwashed from reading Russian propaganda off the internet……. anybody who’s stupid enough to buy into assad’s argument that he’s fighting terrorists have their head straight up their rectums……….. it’s kind of funny to listen to people claim that Obama is a Muslim and call me ignorant for god sakes….. what is up with you people? get out of your house every now and then and get some fresh air……CIA US……KGB. Russia……..questions
Come on people, the U.S. History in the Middle East does not start with the Obama administration. I believe we really started to get involved in the region when the Soviet Union (now called Russia, for those of you that don’t remember history further than 8 years ago) invaded Afghanistan in 1979. Which president started sending/helping the rebels there? Hmmm, remember Ronald Reagan? And those rebels were led by? Osama Bin Laden? Which of course has led to numerous other bad decisions by U.S. Presidents. It’s funny Vladimir didn’t mention their invasion that may have sparked U.S. Intervention since many of you think he speaks the truth. Well I’m guessing that certain people only want to remember certain parts of history. Sad.
Todd,
Thanks for the laughs…. somebody who is siding with the Russian president over the US president talking about treason…….you crazy people, every time I think I’ve heard the dumbest thing from a trump supporter, you guys lower the bar…… the saddest part is the most gullible Trump supporters are going to be hurt the most by his policies and you all are too ignorant to even know …. .you’re probably going to still be blaming Obama…..
