Yes! Go Putin! That’s why he is allied with Iran so strongly and refuses to acknowledge Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

He funds the building of Christian churches abroad but only in exchange for Russian military bases to operate in Syria.

All these Middle East adventures he enjoys while his own country’s economy is in shambles.

He bans “gay” propaganda, only to have the HIV rate in his country spiral to a tipping point on his watch. (Russia has the fastest growing epidemic in Europe.)

He touts “Christian values” and Orthodoxy but just last week in his annual press conference voiced his continued commitment to keep abortion legal. (This even as Russia’s catastrophic demographic crisis looms and the birth rate is once again declining.)

And what say you about the kleptocratic Islamic republics he has fostered within Russia? Chechnya? Ran by Putin’s buddy Kadyrov and funded to the tee by Moscow as the rest of Russia’s non-Islamic outlying regions suffer. And Dagestan?

ISIS has had field days galore recruiting from those places. There are more Russian-speaking foreign ISIS recruits than from any other country...

This is just tip of the iceberg.

Two faced Vladdy Poots deceiving even you I see. He is an anti-christ to the core. And shame on “Christians” for refusing to be discerning. Really?

I suppose you approve of Islamic terrorism in Russia since you hate Putin so much?

Uh, you don’t see the cause-and-effect relationship between these things? You don’t wonder WHY he is clamping down on gays? Honestly, a blind man could see it from miles away.

As for the rest of your post, that comes under the heading of “Putin is looking out for his nation’s interests...and we’d be pretty damned stupid if we not only didn’t know that, but also didn’t do the same for ourselves.” Putin is wearing big-boy pants, and does many things that we don’t like. So what - it doesn’t mean that we can’t deal with him, only that we can’t trust him as far as we can throw an elephant.

‘Nuff said about deception and discernment.

The existing order is grateful for your obeisance.
