Turkey (Erdogan) is getting erratic & dangerous.

Turkey knows well that Russia is conducting air strikes across the border in Syria. Turkey is, too. There is no reason to believe the Russian plane threatened Turkey in any way. This act just makes a dangerous situation worse.

France is conducting airstrikes in Syria. Will Turkey shoot down a French Bomber?

Obama/NATO is trying to negotiate a cooperation agreement with Russia to destroy ISIS while avoiding confrontations with Russian military. Isn’t Turkey, as a member of NATO, a part of this effort? How does this Turkish aggression help further cooperation with Russia?

What will Turkey do when Syria retakes the Syrian land along the Turkish border, then moves S300 AA defenses right up to the border threatening all of southern Turkish aircraft? Would Putin seek revenge? Of course he would. Turkish pilots now have a Russian target on their backs.

If I was Putin right now I’d be furious. I’d be burning the ear of Obama, NATO, & Hollande with anger & threats. I’d be seriously considering destroying the Turkish radar installations along the Syrian border. And I would redouble my efforts to retake the Syrian/Turkish border so I could arm the area to the teeth & Threaten the hell out of Erdogan.

Turkey has been complicit in the flow of men & arms to/from ISIS. It is now shooting down the planes of our would be allies against ISIS. I have no idea how the militarily/diplomatically incompetent Obama will handle this, but I doubt he is happy with Erdogan right now.
