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.
We invite him here to that on the Syrians AND OSLUMA! Never put it past him! His people has been known many of times to come to the USA and take out people
And 14 other countries voted to stop Israel’s land grab as well. France, UK, China, Russia along with Japan, Ukraine (yes Ukraine) the country at war with Russia sided with them. Also Spain, New Zealand, Egypt (bill sponsor) and a few others who cosponsored the bill. So I guess it’s the US and Obama’s fault?
It’s a Republic actually.
Roger Aldi the EPA was created by Richard Nixon.
The UN is demanding Israel stop using its own land! The US was Israel’s only friend to stop this absurdity.
No expansion, not their land. Israel keeps trying to expand. This is the first time in 40 years it was a unanimous vote. 14-0.. So all other countries in the UN Security Council must have it out for Israel. Yeah, right? “A loud applause erupted as Powers (US UN member) abstained from the vote. The majority has spoken.
Obama & Kerry are Clowns…….absolutely Pathetic!!
Didn’t Putin’s Ambassador to the UN just vote to undermine the only democracy in the Middle East that is under CONSTANT terrorist attacks in a effort to make them more vunerable and easier to attack? Why yes he did…… Besides, the sanctions like all previous sanctions against enemies of the USA under Obama is just a meaningless slap on the wrist and hardly worth noticing. It was done to get the Obama Administration’s back stabbing of Israel. Off the front page news. Smoke and mirrors my friends. Putin is a thug plain and simple, just ask anyone in Ukraine, Crimera, or Syria. Obama is an islamic sympathizer, plain and simple. Obama as yet to apologize to the 20 million more American people he put on food stamps. But is more than willing to explain how Fidel Castro is mis-understood. They both stink on ice and you can’t believe a thing either of them says.
It only took one YOUNG BLACK MALE to$#%&!@*up Anerica. Then we had to call in an OLD WHITE MAN to clean up the mess and fix it. Wasn’t HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF CIVIL WAR DEAD AND TRILLIONS IN WELFARE ENOUGH? NEVER FUCKING AGAIN.
Sadly yes, I’m pretty sure he does. And he could not care less because this is not really his country.
