For a non polar world, he blew it. The world was just trading, travelling, talking online. The US' world position was starting to soften. No need for US 'leadership'. But as with Fox benefiting from a Democrat win, a fading US presence doesn't serve Putin's purpose.
I wouldn't be surprised if ISIS started gaining extremist support with the tailwind of Russian global confrontation behind it. Anger breeds anger. The difference is that those attracted to the Putin world vision have hope...those attracted to the ISIS vision have no hope. Both are dangerous...but no hope is always more dangerous.
