Russian President Vladimir Putin told the U.N. on Monday that those who supported democratic revolutions in the Middle East are to blame for the rise of a globally ambitious Islamic State.
"Instead of the triumph of democracy and progress, we got violence, poverty and social disaster and nobody cares a bit about human rights, including the right to life," Putin said through a translator. "I cannot help asking those who have forced that situation: Do you realize what you have done?"
The Russian president added that the power vacuum following these revolutions led to the rise of terrorist groups in the region including the Islamic State group.
He told the United Nations General Assembly it would be an "enormous mistake" not to cooperate with the Syrian government to combat the extremist group.
"No one but President (Bashar) Assad's armed forces and Kurdish militia are truly fighting the Islamic State and other terrorist organizations in Syria," he said.
In an earlier speech at the U.N. , President Barack Obama said it would be a mistake to think that Syria could be stable under Assad.

... lets try idiot and muslim.
That is far more accurate... but I think he is a very smooth, calculating muslim operating with a gallery of advisers, mainly muslim.
Bull crap.
The people to blame are those who led the call to run away from the Middle East.
We should have put men in Iraq and Afghanistan who were not afraid to use power to keep the lunatics down.
Mubarak was such a man. Al-Sisi is such a man...both Egyptians, both Muslims, who were/are FRIENDLY to the West....but who were also willing to use the legitimate power of the state to keep IslamoFASCISTS at bay.
Obama has instead embraced the Muslim Brotherhood, the Iranian mullahs, and the "rebels" who wanted to overthrow Qadafi. And none of those entities like the West at all...so they were perfect bed fellows for Obama.
I’m with you. Someone has to actually get down on the ground and fight them like hell without being concerned with hurting their feelings.
Obama makes our jet pilots call in for permission, which takes up to an hour, before firing on an ISIS convoy.
You don't know Obama's history. He's never done anything smart in his life. All his "accomplishments" were other people pushing him up the ladder of life because he was the right "color."
He didn't write either of his two books, He didn't get into Columbia on his Own, and he D@mn sure didn't get into Harvard on his own. Other people made a way for him.
Have you looked at his finances? Before he became Senator from Illinois, he was near bankruptcy. He was deep in debt, and about to lose his house in foreclosure.
He was a dope smoking idiot all through high school and continued to be a dope smoking idiot all through college.
One of the reasons he lost his law license was because he smoked dope, but didn't reveal this REQUIRED information on his Bar application.
His management of that housing complex was an utter disaster.
He is nothing but an affirmative action government tit sucker who has never held a job that wasn't some sort of handout.
If you think Obama knows what he is doing, you simply don't know his history. During his entire life he has never been anything more than an idiot, and everything he has "accomplished" he got the same way he won that Nobel prize...
By being black, and making powerful liberals feel giddy when they use him to get their "i'm so not a racist" orgasms.
This is how Obama succeeds.
Putin running for speaker ? < / sarcasm>

The problem predates Obama, but he has made it much worse. Our misguided foreign policy over the past 15 years has sown nothing but destruction, anarchy and chaos across the entire Mediterranean. The regimes and that we overthrew, bad as they were, at least kept a lid on Islamic radicalism. In their places we loosed roiling masses of conquering, stone age Mohammedans who are now setting Europe and Western Asia on fire. The world was a lot safer before we got the bright idea to topple Hussein, Qaddafi and Assad. We spent trillions of borrowed dollars to sow the wind, and now a bankrupt America and the entire West is reaping the whirlwind. It is going to get much worse.
bttt
One must be willfully blind to miss that thought. What is so shocking is that the United States -- once the peacekeeper of the Middle East -- has created this dangerous vacuum which Russia is now seeking to fill. Who'd a thunk it?
Yes, and the lefties in America are fuming on the inside over that, because Putin is so clearly more of a leader than the left’s little bathhouse barry bastard boy! Isn’t it an interesting time we live in, that the once ‘great Red enemy’ is now the voice of sanity, what with the degenerate lying scum bucket we have in the White House.
Obama is the father of ISIS. They were the ones he was running guns to when he was calling for the head of Assad.
You are free to disagree, but even a blind deaf and dumb pig would have made one decision that didn’t harm US interests.
Can you name a single thing of any substance that he’s done since his election that hasn’t weakened America or empowered our enemies?
Just one.
That’s all I ask.
ONE.
The two wouldn’t necessarily be mutually exclusive, though for Obama it is suicide mission.
ISIS is filled with "Islamic extremists" from former Soviet Bloc countries where the local "extremists" tend to be FSB agents.
Ain’t that the truth!
Day at the U.N. Recap:: Putin gives Bammy the smack down on ISIS, while Merkel and Zuckerburg agree to censoring FaceBook in order to hide the truth about the *refugee* situation.
I reject your premise. He can be an idiot AND do everything he can to weaken America.
He *IS* following a plan, it's just no his plan. He's too stupid to think it up, but he has sat at the knee of every American Hating left wing kook who existed during his life, and he simply remembers all that bullsh*t he has heard from them.
He even admits he surrounded himself with nothing but left wing kook activists in that book which he didn't have the talent or competence to write.
Obama is just following boilerplate Liberal mantra, and it doesn't take a genius to do that. In fact, that's pretty good proof he's an idiot, because the intelligent Liberals do not believe their own propaganda.
Hmmmmm. Is there a Constitutional reason he couldn’t be?
That’s true but Jughead was supporting them.
