It's a source of amusement to see so many "Liberals" supporting ISIS in Syria and Azov in Ukraine because their hatred of Putin is more powerful than their pretend democracy.

If Putin and Assad are to be deposed then it has to be by their own people, not NATO and Israel funded Nazis.

"We must deal with the world as we find it, not as we hope it to be."

True.

Take it seriously. My thoughts 👇
