Vladimir Putin, No Sanctions on Iran: Obama Sold Out Poland for Nothing

By Beth Shaw

It appears that Barack Obama sold out Poland for nothing. In spite of his preemptively giving in to Russia and promising to not use a missile shield to protect Poland and the Czech Republic, Vladimir Putin is saying no to sanctions on Iran. After all, how can we be absolutely 100% certain they are going to nuke us! Let’s just wait and see before we do anything.

It seems the only preventative measures the United States can take against our enemies anymore is to give Russia whatever they want, whenever they want it. Then, when the Obama Administration gives them what they want, the Russians ask for more. That would have been perfectly predictable for those of us who pay attention to foreign affairs and aren’t immersed in the naivete of Marxism and the delusions of narcissism.

I guess it all started when Hillary Clinton went to Russia on her first trip there as Secretary of State. The most revered diplomat in the United States misspelled the Russian word for ‘reset’ on that infamous ‘reset button‘ she gave the Russians.

That was the high point in our relationship with Russia since Obama took office.

The Russians were the first to throw down a gauntlet when Obama ascended to the Presidency of the United States. Then there was Obama’s visit to Moscow. He was not welcomed with the grandeur he’s become accustomed to, Russians didn’t shake his hand and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin spared him all of about 15 minutes. I strongly suspect that it took the savvy Putin about five seconds to size up Obama. He didn’t need more time than that to understand the empty suit that sat in front of him. From that point on, the Russians have been in control of our relationship with them. Putin didn’t bother meeting with Hillary Clinton at all. He left town.

Obama has relinquished more and more control of America and our position in the world to the Russians. He’s promised to quit protecting Poland and the Czech Republic. He’s offered to disarm the United States. He’s even offered to allow Russians to inspect America’s nuclear facilities. The naivete is staggering unless one thinks that he’s intentionally trying to turn the United States into a Third World Country. I don’t know which it is. I hope it’s the former rather than the latter. It’s just hard to believe someone is THAT clueless.

It’s hard to know whether to worry or not about all the power that Obama is giving away. He’s not known for keeping his promises. But making these promises to our enemies is making this a decidedly more dangerous world.

It seems that in spite of all the overtures to Russia, Hillary Clinton’s recent meetings with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov have been an epic fail for the Obama Administration. No only did they get everything they want from us, they are giving us absolutely NOTHING in return. Vladamir Putin not only said there would be no sanctions on Iran, he said there would be not threat of sanctions on Iran. As could be predicted, Clinton immediately capitulated. My goodness, we are surrendering faster than France these days!

It seems Obama sold out Poland for nothing. Absolutely nothing. The question that we are left with is how much more American power will Obama surrender before he realizes he’s being played.

That’s what happens when you surrender without preconditions.

Poland is always like the canary in the mine shaft.....

The only thing surprising about this is that Putin didn’t even make a half-hearted attempt to show he was playing ball with 0bama. In international politics, this was just the equivalent of kicking sand in the face of the 98-pound weakling. The American state-run media will never portray it that way. But to the rest of the non-idiotic world of America haters, this is obvious.

[Hans]

You are wrong. Natural appeasers must keep in practice.
They are because they betray.

[the_Watchman]

The idea that Russia would reciprocate was merely a fabrication invented by the press to excuse Obama’s treachery.

The fact is that even if he had extracted such a concession from Russia, it would have been a diplomatic and military error. One does not trade a static, defensive strategy for a transient tactical maneuver.

To explain, I would point out that 1 year from now the sanctions have either worked, or not; i.e., the benefit is transient. However, if the deal is struck, then 1 year from now and forever, there would still be no missile defense system in Eastern Europe.

Our enemies see weakness and are playing this fool like a fiddle...

[screaminsunshine]

I wonder if Putin is Obamas spymaster. He issues Obamas orders. I would not be surprised.

[DoughtyOne]

He didn’t sell out for nothing. He hates our nation. He sold out to help destroy it.

Obama Sold Out Poland for Nothing

Not necessarily.

Did Obama Sell Out Poland for GE?

The author asks how much more will Obama surrender before he realizes he is being played.

The author labors under faulty premise that Obama a) seeks to thwart Iran; b) expected anything from Putin; c) has America's or the Free World's interests in mind.

Obama is a closeted Islamo-Communist who could barely restrain himself from licking Putin's loafers.

Recall that our president-pretend was born of an atheist studying Russian, having graduated from The Little Red Schoolhouse.

She passed him off to her father and fellow cell member Frank Davis to learn the glories of the Red Army and the ee-vils of Amerika.

Saul Alinsky--Communist with a better marketing strategy--looms large in his legend.

Bill Ayers--kill 25 million to cement the Revolution.

The boy-king of Kenya gave us a clear warning with a 52-second youtube that he would disarm us.

He is not naive; he is not "being played".

He is a wholly-owned subsidiary.

“The only thing surprising about this is that Putin didn’t even make a half-hearted attempt to show he was playing ball with 0bama”

Putin doesn’t respect him. I can’t fathom what he says behind closed doors. Zero is such an idiot and considered to be so in those circles that I believe that Putin would lose face among them if he were to publicly even play ball with Zero.

Considering Putin’s background I don’t think he is reticent when it comes to a point where you get fed up with coddling idiots.

[henkster]

You’re probably right. Putin represents a resurgent Russian nationalism; among that crowd, there is a burning desire to see America fall, just as their empire fell two decades ago. The desire to humiliate an American President; even to go out of their way to humiliate an American President, must be overwhelming.

[Niuhuru]

I really can’t fathom why anyone would, in the throes of nationalism, want to trash another country. Perhaps it’s racism. It’s not like they feel racial guilt over there, plus the saber rattling of Zero’s supporters (panthers, sharpton, Jesse Jackson, etc.) about a black empire must be unsettlingly reminsicent of Hitler.

Leaders like Putin, for all their ruthless, brutal methods, are not idiots who ignore the past. Same with China; long memories and a sharp eye on recurring patterns.

[Mark was here]

This is what I said yesterday.

Things have been going downhill with Russia ever since we bombed Serbia back to the Stone Ages.

This is the result of Bill Clinton’s actions. They are pissed at Clinton, so the Zero sends his wife to talk to them. Of course they will reject her out of hand.

Not true. He got a Nobel Peace Prize out of the deal.
