"The United States believes that the Russian jet shot down by Turkey on Tuesday was hit inside Syrian airspace after a brief incursion into Turkish airspace, a U.S. official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity."

Disagree. I believe the US knows exactly where the jet was hit - "U.S. officials" are just refusing to say.

It was definitely preplanned by the Islamist Turkish government...and Russia would be justified in acting accordingly.

Isis has no air force, so why shoot down a jet?

Suppose it’s so. Why not further suppose that it was anticipated by Putin who decided there was so much to be gained politically by sacrificing a couple of jets and pilots.

And obuma was right smack dab in the middle of it...

Obuma is supporting Turkey and Putin knows this, that's why he came out the other day and made the comment that he got stabbed in the back...

I think Putin should invite obuma to the Kremlin for dinner...one way ticket type of entertainment...

I see where Turkey has announced they will not be entering Syrian airspace. I wonder why? sarc

PREPLANNED? No, it was more sinister than that. It was PREPREPLANNED! Perfidious bastards.

To borrow a phrase from Ross Perot:

That giant sucking sound we hear are the European countries rushing to partner with Putin in the power vacuum created by Barack Obama’s “leading from behind” in the fight against the Islamic savages.

Yesterday, McInerney told Fox News - much to the surprise of the reporter interviewing him - that assuming the Turkish version of the flight path of the Russian jet is accurate, Russia wasn't threatening Turkey, and that Turkeys shoot down of the Russian jet "had to be pre-planned", as the jet wasnt in Turkish air space long enough for anything other than a premeditated attack to have brought it down......"

Hmmmm. Where did I read that before? Let me think, let me think ........
