I wonder how much of Putin's actions are meant for domestic consumption. Even brutal dictators need the support of the people, and if he can paint the U.S. as the enemy it would only help him in whatever Middle East plans he has.

Hillary seems to be unintentionally helping him in this endeavor. Her proposal of imposing a no-fly zone over Syria is patently ridiculous, but it only plays into his hands.
