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.

Jack Maggard, it’s obvious that you’re the ignorant one who lives in denial.

The US sitting back letting this happens is like giving the muslims the state of Michigan oh wait he already has just he did it secretly.
Liberalism is a mental disorder & runs rampant in this country, hopefully we can overcome all the damage caused as a result of Liberal thinking.
Marianne Shaw both Putin and Trump want peace. Clinton openly stated she wanted war with Russia and spoke if the use of nuclear weapons. The Obama administration got us wrapped up in Syria and Tried getting into the Ukraine. Obama denounced Isreal yesterday which is one of our greatest allies and can be a great horrible enemy, luckily the have stated they want to renew our relationship under the Trump administration. So what war are you speaking of? It appears to most intelligent people that Clinton and Obama has been try to push us into war for years. If it’s a war against Islam you speak of then that is war that is just and righteous and needs to be fought, I personally don’t know of any Soldier, Sailor, Airman, or Marine (and I know many) that would disagree with that war.
