Just fucking brilliant.
Once again 180 degrees from reality.
Putin may be smart enough to fool you, but not most of us.

We all know what cretins to thank for creating this mess.

It's funny to see some of the Rightie views on Putin's "masterful" diplomacy.   One tea bagger had an opinion piece saying how brilliant Putin was on his Middle East policy and this opinion was published just before Turkey blew the Russian fighter out of the air and showing the completely tenuous nature of Russia's military.  Turkey isn't even worried about them and they share a border!!

The world war III rants are hilarious.   

Obama's luring of Russia into this was the masterful part.  Tspank is too obtuse to see that.

The PiC didn't lure anyone into anything, unless you count the idiots that he got to vote for him. Putin took advantage of the PiC being a pussy. Everyone in the world knows this except, apparently, progs. But, progs really don't qualify as people.

The Putin fan boys are the same ones idolizing GW for getting our kids killed destabilizing the Middle East.  Their brand of nonsensical bravado would be humorous if it didn't cause such tragic results.  

What benefit is Putin reaping backing Assad as oil prices sink and his economy does in the $hitter?

 

 

Yea, Putin is a Napolean wannabe
But his Air Force is outclassed by the Turks.

I would expect them to retaliate using clandestine operations. Russia has a way of making people who disagree with them disappear. I remember hearing about someone who opposed Putin who managed to commit suicide by shooting himself seven times.

To add insult to injury, Ukraine just cut off natural gas from Russia and closed their airspace to all Russian traffic.
