undermining President Obama over there also, trying to start a war with Russia.

In fact, one reason they are so angry at Putin is because Russia is one of the five nations working with Obama on the IRAN talks.

Since Russia and China (also working with Obama on Iraq) but have veto power at the UN, the only way to try to undermine these talks for a peaceful resolution with Iran, is to demonize the allies.

I truly wish we had a real news media in this country so people didn't get their information from propaganda merchants.
