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.
Carl says, “It’s sad so many so-called Americans are more loyal to Putin and Russia than to America.”
No loyalty to putin. Only Jesus. Muslims want his name to die. Now why would we let them be my neighbor?
Of course he does, did it on purpose
Hey Putin, Trump will back you up. By the way Putin was in the KGB.
The Middle East was in turmoil long before Obama took office. “Putin becomes the hero who brings order out of chaos”??? So, sounds like everything is now fine n dandy in the Middle East?? LOL LOL Define “order” in this case???
Putin is the best, great leader
Yes sir, they know. Now we know. There day will come!
Sad to think at one time the USSR was our biggest enemy, NOW they lead the war on terrorist. Wake up, WE are the leader of the free world, rid our country of the muslim leadership and set America free again.
Having watched this, I believe he does know exactly what he has done. But he did not do this alone.
Putin Obama, and Kerry on the spot !! Kudos to you Sir !!
