The West is to blame for creating monster of Vladimir Putin
Herald Sun (Melbourne) ^ | 21st July 2014 | Andrew Bolt

RUSSIAN president Vladimir Putin has the blood of Australians on his hands, and is now hiding the evidence of his crimes.

But blame the West, too, for its fatal weakness.

In fact, the Abbott Government hopes to use the shooting down of Malaysia Airlines MH17 to persuade the West to muscle up at last to Russia.

It is Russia — under Putin’s policy of securing his borders — which helped pro-Russian militias seize parts of eastern Ukraine, making them near lawless.

....

And if Putin needed any more encouragement, he had only to look to the Middle East, which has exposed Obama as the weakest US president for at least a century.

Obama weakened US support for Israel, pretended a terrorist attack on his Libyan consulate was just a protest against a film and pulled out too early from Iraq, surrendering it to jihadists.

And he’s the man who warned Syria it would cross a “red line” if it used chemical weapons but then did nothing when it did.

No wonder Putin grabbed what he liked from Ukraine. Who’d stop him?

Not Europe, which has never been weaker militarily and, critically, depends on Russia for a third of its gas.

The simple fact is that every thug in the world has seen their opportunity.

You are correct, and 2 years plus to go.

I can understand why Obama got elected in ‘08, but his re-election is an error which has led to horrors and heaven only knows how much worse it can get.

One of the great things about Reagan was the fact that if he threatened military action, there would be military action and everybody knew it. The result was the most peaceful periods of my lifetime.

Obama sent the message he would put on his knee pads after his 2nd erection and they want him to “muscle up” to Vlad?

And monkey’s will fly outta my butt...

No we're not. Russia isn't and never has been under Western control.

Very true!

While I don't support Obama’s domestic or foreign policies, (he's an insane leftest commie IMHO) I still have to LMAO at the rest of the world, whose political leaders and peoples have loudly and continuously condemned the USA for every ill to befall mankind everywhere on this earth, for decades.Natural or man made.

So...they finally get to experience their universally purported ideal of the perfect type of meek and passive NWO type POTUS they ALL have claimed to desire for many years.

He doesn't try to lead, is very willing to follow, and tries his best to get out of the way.

Isn't that what they have all claimed they wanted?
ROTFLMAO

Exactly! They hate it when we have a strong president and whine when our losers elected the pussy they claim they wanted.

Barry told Vlad he’d be more flexible in his second term, and sure enough, Vlad made Barry go “Unnngh!”
