You know, this is not an if else proposition. Putin can still be a Ex KGB, Ex commie tin pot dictator scumbag and Obama can still be, well Obama. Just because Putin is evil, doesn’t mean I’m saying Obama is good. Why is there this comparison? When did I ever say Obama was good? Where in any of these posts I have made, did you see me praise Obama. We’re talking about Putin, not Obama.
Putin is representing what he considers Russian interests, as well as intervening to help save Christians after neither Obama, nor any other major leader did. Turkey’s Moslem leader has progressively become worse and now under his Islamic leadership has lit the fuse of war with Russia by shooting down its aircraft. Kurdistan anyone ?
Why do so many people on free republic want to believe everything Putin and Russia says?
You are in effect saying the following:
[Why do so many people on free republic want to believe everything Putin and Russia says over what Obama / Erdogan says.]
Then you go and lump our still patriotic forces in with Obama's lies, when our own pilots say 75% of their missions against ISIS were aborted by Obama and our intelligent annalists have went public with information of threat assessments altered.
Remember Obama saying he was going to fundamentally change America? Maybe those now running the country don't really represent what America once stood for. The old America wouldbe defending innocents in the M.E. instead of growing Muslim terrorists who slaughter them.
Each must decide for themselves. I'm picking true Christian(s) over Muslims every time.
Trust but verify.
While I mostly agree with you in principal, the terrorists murdered the pilots, the Turks shot 'em down. If the pilots ejected in Turkish airspace they would probably be alive.
Right... Go get yourself another glass of Obama koolaid while you find someone else to argue with. I don't do stupid.
And just what are our interests these days?
the only dictator in all this is Obama. I fully support Putin and whatever he deems is an appropriate response to this act of war.
OK ... well, tell the author. :)
Maybe B.O. wants to be “mahdi”....he has supported the shia annd the sunni....the mahdi arises at a time when all of isamoporkia is at war with itself....
interesting ...
oh well
Russia is not there to fight ISIS, despite the propaganda that you have apparently believed.
Russia is there to save Assad’s butt. That’s it..
Good, Assad protects Christians and is worth defencing. Russia is bombing both ISIS and the alNusra (another name for al-Qaeda) linked Sunni rebels who are just as bad if not worse because they can actually eventually take Damascus.
He’s no Christian!! He’s a former commie KGB atheist! So what atheistic policies has Putin enacted?
Turkey is the only country in NATO to actively commit genocide in the 20th Century with no repercussions. They killed 1.5 million Armenians. Time for the Russians to fry some Turkey. Turkey is no friend of ours. STOP THE OCCUPATION OF CONSTANTINOPLE!
Let me make something crystal clear.
I do not support the State department led effort to replace Assad for a host of reasons.
However, we did not start this civil war. The US, has only been trying to take advantage of it to revamp Syria, which has been a occasional ass pain over many decades, both father and son.
But I think it’s a mistake. These people, various armed interest groups are ungovernable, and thus require a dictator or tyrant..
Yup.....they did...
But their story is different.
BTW, over my lifetime I have had several Armenian friends...They are very fine people.
I would agree - but the fact is there is ample evidence the revolt was sponsored from outside Syria and the US may well be involved from the start or shortly after.
