AMERİKA BÜLTENİ (12 Eylül 2013)
Rusya devlet başkanı Viladimir Putin’in perşembe günü New York Times gazetesinde yayınlanan makalesi ABD’de büyük yankı yaptı. Özellikle de ABD’nin kendisinin uluslararası düzendeki yeri için sıkça kullandığı ‘American exceptionalism (Amerikan istisnacılığı)’ kavramına itirazı çokça tartışılacak. İşte Putin’in yazısına Twitter’da dikkat çeken bazı reaksiyonlar:
Putin just won the world champion belt in concern trolling http://t.co/tBPbQP56FC

Putin now just basically doing donuts in Obama’s front yard http://t.co/YuN2SdfMkd

That riff about exceptionalism in the Putin op-ed does for the art of trolling like “Sgt. Pepper” did for the rock album.

Putin’s next act of Obama trolling: a series of Youtube lectures on Constitutional Law

At least Russia is the kind of free, open society that will allow President Obama to respond in their biggest newspaper. Oh wait.

I hope President Obama submits a pro-gay marriage op-ed to http://t.co/XKoKnOyCwP tomorrow. Not that they’d post it.

I hope Putin has taken adequate protections. Now that he is a Russian journalist his life may be in grave danger!

Putin has NYT op-ed out tonight and is also working on 20 Russian bears who would be so disappointed if you bombed Syria for BuzzFeed.

Putin also working on his @NewYorker cartoon caption-contest submission this week.

Meh, I’m holding out for Putin’s Modern Love column.

Putin op-ed really does read like the action movie villain speech about you idealistic Americans and your “freedom” at the very end

Between rejecting force trigger in French proposal & lecturing America on peace/democracy, Putin’s making it real easy for Congress to act

New theory: Putin’s trying to annoy Americans into supporting a disastrous attack

Last paragraph is jaw-dropping. Putin dismissing US exceptionalism. On 9/11. Stunning after Obama’s speech last night http://t.co/I7DiX3YQ7m

It’s a good thing Vladimir Putin followed the letter of international law when it intervened in Georgia. Wait….

Putin’s op-ed, invoking God and international law, is just a work of art. Reminds of the old “the devil can quote scripture” line
— Stephen Saideman (@smsaideman) September 12, 2013
Putin could have made a strong, substantive case for non-intervention. The case he actually made, however, is pretty laughable.

Like most clever propagandists Putin combines half truth and half lies and is very good at it. His comms staff are top notch.

So according to Putin, rebels used chem weapons. So he’ll solve problem by collecting Assad’s CW. When you lie at least make sure it fits.
