Putin is the last one who should be talking about God and morality after all the shite he has done over the years. But yes, he is absolutely right.

The Iraq War — which was waged on wholly fabricated pretenses — was a disaster on nearly every conceivable level. And it most certainly led to the needless deaths of countless women and children.
The Iraq War likewise spawned violent insurgencies that soon engulfed much of the Middle East. Further, many of the terrorist elements in these insurgent movements were aided and abetted by our nation’s own corrupt national security apparatus:
I don’t know what it will take for Iraq War apologists to accept the truth that the Iraq War was a colossal disaster. This is akin to Democrats touting the great success of LBJ’s “Great Society” welfare programs in defeating poverty.
As to Israel, Israel is a wealthy and wholly secularist state with one of the highest standards of living in the world, offers a generous cradle-to-grave welfare system to it’s citizens and likewise possesses a throughly modern and effective armed force to defend it’s own borders. On what basis should the United States be expected to subsidize Israel’s existence into perpetuity?

He actually had a good case until he started shelling residential apartment buildings and sending rockets into cities against the population who had not lifted a finger to do anything to harm Russia.

1) Russia isn’t communist and haven’t been a long fricking time
2) I maintain the position that it’s currently impossible for anyone to know how much either side has justification and that will likely remain the case for a long time. Ukraine is our corruption playground of choice who knows what all we have going in that hellscape. Russia could have legitimate reasons for taking some sort of action, but that doesn’t make shelling civilian complexes the correct thing. Somehow this idea makes me a pro Russian Putin Youth Fascist and probably a bigot and phobe

Vladimir Putin has joined millions of Orthodox believers by plunging bare-chested into icy waters in a Russian tradition to mark the Epiphany. Surrounded by priests and glittering religious icons, and braving subzero temperatures, the president lowered himself into Lake Seliger, 220 miles (350km) north-west of Moscow. It is the first time the 65-year-old, who has often posed topless on wilderness expeditions, has taken part publicly in the ritual

I can’t speak to Putin’s faith. Yes he was in the KGB. If he was interested in communist ideology it’s almost a certainty he’d have moved Russia back that direction, Marxism in all its forms is a religion and the people bought into it don’t just abandon the idea. It’s likely Putin is not what I’d consider a good man, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t acting in the best interest of Russia on this occasion for acceptable reason. Again, that’s something neither me nor you nor anyone should proclaim with confidence considering we have a wholly corrupt journalism apparatus.
As far as what those reasons could be I already said it. With the known US corruption in the Ukraine who knows what’s unknown about it that could pose a threat on their border. Not to mention anything other countries have been doing there as believing the US is alone in hiding nefarious actions there is naive. Again, I don’t know and neither do you so why are you acting like you do?

I agree with the fact that Christianity and fundamental Christian beliefs are being continually cast aside and that government is complicit.
But Putin has no business speaking on the subject. Russia is one of the worst when it comes to religious persecution and freedom of religion. He’s performing on the world stage because he knows most people aren’t smart enough to know better.

In truth I find a lot of hypocrisy coming from the US government. It has such blatant disregard for fundamental Christian values and the rights of those who wish to exercise their belief in them. But I digress. I guess give them credit here for acknowledging Russia’s active persecution and denial of the freedom to worship.

Religious freedom conditions in Russia continue to deteriorate. The government targets “nontraditional” religious minorities with fines, detentions and criminal charges under the pretext of combating extremism. Russian legislation criminalizes “extremism” without adequately defining the term, enabling the state to prosecute a vast range of nonviolent religious activity.

On December 18, in accordance with the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998, as amended, the Secretary of State again placed Russia on a Special Watch List for having engaged in or tolerated severe violations of religious freedom.

Russia has an evil past and Putin has no doubt performed evil acts. I am encouraged that they are no longer atheists as the USSR was with all religions prosecuted. It seems as momentum wise they have improved somewhat while we have been sliding in the wrong direction. It is really ashamed that we can no longer take the unassailable moral high ground. Hopefully we will be able to turn that around, and if it takes an evil man to call us out in a pot calling the kettle black situation hopefully it will serve as a wake up call.

In other words Trump would be better because he would not do something that would disturb the dictator of Russia. In other words, shut up and appease.
No thanks.
