"Putin's actions make him an enemy of the free world."
It does, he is, and when the hell is the world, or at least America, going to call him on it??..just like stopping Imanutjob, stopping Putin is long overdue.
Unfortunately, the way the situation is on Capitol Hill we are stuck with waiting for Putin to make the first overtly aggressive move, which in time could conceivably transpire in an ultra-rash move against Israel, and or the Persian Gulf region, if Putin mistakenly thought openly siding with allies Syria & Iran would be to his benefit.
Reflecting on the era of the the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, today's Putin-Ahmadinejad Pact will hopefully result in a similar stab in the back, as in evil attacking evil.
In terms of only Iran's case, as well as Syria's, the corrective plan is already in motion.
