Putin is fighting on the right side, against ISIS, something Obama is only pretending to do. Obama has been building up the terrorists and supplying them with arms. And of course the UN can pretty much be counted on to take the wrong side, too, since it is stuffed full of Muslim countries and Muslim lovers.
I’m sure strategically outflanking NATO and gaining Mediterranean naval ports have nothing to do with it. Obama/Rodham Clinton/Kerry, aka the Three Stooges, may as well have sent Russia an engraved invitation.
Putin is fighting on Russia’s side, no other. He may clear away ISIS where it impinges on his ME designs and will clear away any other anti Assad groups along with ISIS. Russia and China now have a lock on Iranian and Iaqi oil.
Putin, doing the work OBOZO refuses to do and can’t be compelled to do, thanks to Boner and McConnell.
