So you like Putin's ideology and you're willing to put up with his geo-politics to achieve the ends you desire? Is that what your point is? What is it about the rise of Putin's power that you approve of?

I believe Putin's done more to bring ISIL control of parts of Syria and Iran into existence than any other world leader aside from Assad and al Maliki.

There is more freedom in Russia under Putin and more opportunities. It was basically a failed state before him.

Other things about him I don’t like.

I’d like to learn your perspective if you say so.
