The Ottoman version of ‘change and reform.’
Vlad Tepes' Prince Vlad III Dracula The Impaler vs
Sultan Mehmet II 1 ... History repeats
When President Obama had Secretary of State Hillary Clinton give the Russians a big red “Reset” button, most Americans had no idea just how far that reset would take us.
Four years later, we’re seeing a reinvigorated Russia that still reminisces about the days of the Soviet Union, led by a former KGB spymaster.
When Ronald Reagan spent the Soviet Union into its final collapse, the Russia that emerged held the promise of being free and one day becoming a true ally of the United States.
But as Obama began “resetting” and bowing around the world on his global apology tour, Vladimir Putin sensed weakness. The temptation must have been too great, and he began mobilizing his nation, growing wages for workers, expanding Russia’s oil trade and slowly stretching his influence into other parts of the globe.
Key to Russia’s ascendancy is the opportunity provided by Obama’s contempt for military defense and his mishandling of the Middle East.
