TURKEY ACCUSES RUSSIA OF 'SLANDER' OVER OIL CLAIMS Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan pictured has described Russian claims that Turkey is buying oil from ISIS as slander Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan (pictured) has described Russian claims that Turkey is buying oil from ISIS as slander Erdogan has accused Moscow of slander for claiming his country buys oil from ISIS as the fallout between the two nations over the downed fighter jet continues to escalate. Turkey refused to apologise for the jet's destruction, though conceded in the face of harsh Russian retaliatory measures it may have acted 'differently' had it known the plane was Russian. In the aftermath of the incident, Russia accused Turkey of paying ISIS fighters in order to buy oil. But Erdogan lashed out at the claims, calling them slanderous. Speaking in Ankara he said They claim Turkey is buying oil from Daesh, using another name for ISIS. Shame on you. Those who claim we buy oil from Daesh are obliged to prove it. If not, you are a slanderer. He told France 24 They are lies, they are slander. We have never, never had this kind of commercial relationship with any terror organisation. They have to prove it, and if they can, Tayyip Erdogan will leave office. .

It's a one man's trash another man's treasure thing -- Erdogan regards the Kurds (not just one faction, because the factions have been much better at cooperating since the Shah fell, ironically) as terrorists; it's not dissimilar to the narcoterrorists killing their way in the southeastern US. Erdogan is one of perhaps two Islamofascist leaders in the Middle East that is better than whatever will follow (the other one being the twerp Hashemite king of Jordan). Furthermore, Turkey's in NATO, and NATO is the best option we've got to keep the bloodthirsty mass-murdering imperialist criminal regime in Moscow from overrunning the Earth.

That said, I support the creation of Kurdistan, but it'll have to start in Iraq and Syria, which are already failed states -- thanks to Iran.

They knew the exact time and the exact place

There is quite a scathing profile of Obama's puppet at the dailymail.uk ) ...

Double dealing tyrant who's sabotaging the West's battle to crush ISIS ...

If even a fraction of that is true then his claim that he would voluntarily step down seems far fetched IMHO. It sure looks like he is running the Obama playbook of Fundamental Transformation on the traditionally 'secular' nation of Turkey.

The smart money would have to go on the proposition that Erdogan will be Erdogone in a perfect storm of uneasy Turkish Military and Kurdish and Russian and Syrian cooperation.

I'm thinking that Bammy's gambit in Iran just might do the same by placing Saudi and Israel in a partnership. So I guess Obama really is bringing peace to the world! He's earning that Nobel after all.

This is all fairly straight forward:

Turkey supports ISIS, so does Obama by minimizing his bombing efforts, Its all about the Sunni Cause. Russia supports the SHiites and Iran. Obama gives Erdogan the word...and down goes a Russian jet. The whole situation, including the security interests of the USA is being managed by the Saudis.

Putin knows all of this, and will likely make sure that Obama receives some incoming.
