Did Putin claim a set of particular moral principles that he then turned around and violated? My whole point is that western leaders only feign moral outrage to manufacture consent towards violating the very principles they espouse.

But sure, here you go:

Shame on you, Mr. Putin, for supporting a dictator in the Middle East! How could you when the whole world knows that good and moral politicians would never do such a thing!

Jampie, how does that sound?
