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.
America is so racist that their hero is either the racist bigot running for President or the former Communist head of the KGB. BTW, this President is trying to clean up Reagan supporting al Qaeda and both Bushes and their Saudi buddies.
Obama may have ended torture but he owns NDAA He may have ended the Iraq war but Isis thrives on his watch. His legacy will forever be tarnished for continuing W’s failed invasion and agenda
Joseph Perugini I don’t agree. He is using diplomacy. No one in the the world trusts the United States. It will take time. If a republican gets in the White House, all the progress he has made will be undone. Putin and the Republicans are on opposite sides, but have the same goals. Both of them are scared of Obama and are scared that a Democrat, especially someone as qualified as Hillary Clinton will continue Obama’s work. Unfortunately, a good chunk of voters is too ignorant to get it. The Republicans have been causing trouble in the mideast since Eisenhower covertly overthrew Iran’s first democratically elected government and replaced it with the corrupt old regime because big oil told him to. We have had twenty years of Texas presidents in my lifetime and there has been trouble in the mideast constantly because of them
reagan got the eonomy going and clintons started its downfall their wasnt much bush could do in 4 yrs after slick willie signed nafta and deregulated wall street bussinesses where already gone or packing to go when bush took office
Mike Kozlowski You are absolutely right. This is one of the reasons we should not allow Hillary in office. She help write and orchestrate NAFTA, TPP, and Obamacare. She now stands against them all! That says she either makes horrible decisions or she flip-flopped for votes!
Putin is a bit different that all of the previous commie leaders. He has done great things in Russia. He also stands by God. Yes, he is a former KGB agent and I know exactly what that is. I think Trump, having a business relationship with Putin already, is great for this country! We cannot allow Russia to be a super power again!
meanwhile trump is putin’s new buddy and defender
Yes, he let Putin spend his men and material killing enemies of a leader of a country near him. And save us wasting ours far, far away. Hurrah!

Putin is correct, Obama created Arab spring and responsible for the humanitarian crisis and hundreds of thousands deaths.
