The Muslim "refugees" are preparing for a 2016 mega "Tet Offensive" across Europe.

How many mosques are already filled with weapons and explosives?

“Turkey’s decision to shoot down a Russian warplane was a provocative and portentous act.”

Just about says it all. Time will tell.

I am surprised Putin did not immediately send a cruise missile to the base where the Turkish planes took off.

This shows he is NOT the bloodthirsty maniac the press wants to portray him as.

Has anyone thought this through?

I believe that Putin is thinking it through right now. I think that the incursions into Turkey were intentional and were designed to lord it over Turkey. Obviously, that was a miscalculation, a blunder. But, there are good signs. Putin is now saying that he will cooperate with the West to help defeat ISIS. That is the right policy for Russia.

Ah, Buchanan is wrong as always.

Violating Turkish airspace was the provocation.

I understand that Buchanan has a moonish mancrush on his favorite KGB Colonel, but why does every other person on this forum have one too?

Well, I want to know why the United States isn’t bombing Turkey.

Nobody in their right mind should trust Ergogan or any Turk. Sorry, but these people have proven since the First World War they should be looked upon suspicion. They are supporters and protectors of radical Islam and should be booted out of NATO ASAP. As someone has posted here next year could be a horrific one with a worldwide ISIS offensive. I fear for our world in the absence of true leaders everywhere.

In the end, all Obama seems to want is chaos, domestically and internationally. I give credit to Glenn Beck who made a lot of us aware of Cloward-Piven. I think Obama is maneuvering us toward some sort of military catastrophe, like the sinking of an aircraft carrier, so that his legacy will be an even stronger aversion to U.S. projection of power than there was post-Viet Nam.

You are right, but it isn’t just the MSM. There are more than a few on FR who are stuck mentally in the Cold War and who cannot bring themselves to understand this is Russia, not the Soviet Union, and Putin, not Breshnev, that we are dealing with. The world has changed. It isn’t the 60s or the 70s any more. Putin is not a saint, but he a better actor on the world stage than Obama. I never thought we see something like that come to pass.

Only idiots like Rubio want to start a shooting war with Russia over Turkey.

Turkey is run by Islamists who are not helping us defeat ISIS. They are helping ISIS.

As it is impossible to believe Turkish F-16 pilots would fire missiles at a Russian plane without authorization from President Tayyip Recep Erdogan

Military pilots operate with predetermined rules of engagement.

The world has changed.

But the people haven't. They may call themselves Russia and fund themselves through taxes now, but these are the same elites who, not too long ago, were occupying Eastern Europe and threatening us with nuclear missiles.

For Turkey is a NATO ally. And if Russia strikes back, there is a possibility Ankara will invoke Article V of NATO and demand that we come in on their side in any fight with Russia.

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! And Baraq Hussein 0bama is pushing the US toward conflict with russia.
