Rush is following the crowd that is still brainwashed with the USSR and it's 70 years of communist rule.
It's been a new Russia for 25+ years. Now a Democratic, family, homophobic, Christian, conservative country, in which Putin has ~80% approval.

RUSH WAS A RANTING FOOL TODAY.
Recall it was the Russian Orthodox Church who provided real support for the Syrian Christians. We in the US did nothing - not even talk about it - off limits!!
Planning on cheering for Hezbollah, too?
