Some bleeding hearts here will undeniably whine "how about no dictators at all", of course, but I prefer dismissing them as people disconnected from the grim reality of the Middle-East. Think of Warhammer 40K and change all references to Warhammer with the word "Middle-East". Do you think democracy can function in Syria without any radical restructuring? Do you think that any one of those opposition groups who have the slightest chance of power against Assad will be a peace-shitting, rainbow-puking vortex of love and friendship?
Like I said, complete naivety and Western liberalism. Buck the fuck up and accept that Syria, or the Middle-East, won't be getting any better. Especially by not your hand.
Thank you.
Finally someone who speaks some sense.
Your Warhammer 40K comparison is very apt. I swear, some of these bleeding-heart liberals would think it a good idea to promote democracy on Cadia if they had the chance. I can see the arguments now: "Why do we have to choose between Chaos or the Imperium? Why can't we have freedom and blah blah blah?"
I'll take the Imperium, thank you very much.

An excellent example of why allowing unrestricted immigration of people with a very different culture might not be the best idea ever :P

Most of them are already in Germany
Westerners should actually thank Putin, to solve this mess with no solution. They couldn't support Assad, they couldn't bomb so called 'opposition', land invasion was unthinkable for anyone.
So they simply waited until somehow ISIL will collapse Which is unlikely, since, again, from political reasons, NATO won't bomb convoys with food supplies, for example, or won't burn 'civilian areas'.
'Limited war' like that is just very expensive nonsense.

As well as money, Muslim countries provided thousands of volunteer fighters known as "Afghan Arabs", who wished to wage jihad against the atheist communists. Notable among them was a young Saudi named Osama bin Laden, whose Arab group eventually evolved into al-Qaeda.

people like you should consider possibility, that someone can be on russian side but not be supporter of Putin
in this case, of course.
it's sad how Great Powers plays with minor nations exactly the same games like hundred and two hundred years ago, but western citizens fails to see this game, or worse, supports it.
no matter if there are emperors or presidents on either side, west will be always obsessed by anti-russian fears.
russophobia historically doesn't even make sense. sure, they wanted to conquer and control, like any other empire, French or British one, but never did such horrific things like Turks or Germans.
Or Belgians.

Well sure the Russians never did any genocide, it was alien that took them!

considering how Ottomans traited it's subjects, be it Greeks, Kurds or Armenians, population transfers ordered by Tsars (or by comrade Stalin) were always considerably more humane than all those random massacres and genocides ordered by Sultans and Pashas during ages. Population transfers, by the way, were seemed as legit and necessary by ALL Allied Powers still in 1945.
and just a note, famines in ukranian part of Russian Empire were actually recurring events, that one during USSR was simply the last one. Tsars were no less ruthless, when they needed resources for conquests, sometimes even more than 'Uncle Stalin'.
