Who couldn't see this coming?

For all their military might, the Russians really come off looking like incompetent idiots sometimes.

Maybe... but in the end... only a single minded and concerted effort by anti-terrorist world leaders will actually put a stop to this.

And the terrorists KNOW it.

The "anti-terrorist" world leaders are busy importing millions of these mutants into Europe and North America.

This has nothing to do with "terrorism" at all. It's a civil war, and most countries would be better off steering clear of it because it's unlikely to end well either way.

Sounds like Russia is going to have to ‘remove’ some Turkish air power.

Why do ppl side with Turkey and ISIS on here? Russia are our allies against ISIS. Hindering Russia = hindering our objective to destroy ISIS

winoneforthegipper :" Well this won't play well. "

Well , consider it :'two for two' as to which side Turkey stands on ISIS.
"Fool me once , shame on you. Fool me twice ,.. shame on me".
It's like dropping warning leafletts on the truck drivers of oil trucks, prior to straffing.
There comes a point where you can't hide which side of conflict you are on .

No, there is no good reason for the Turks to have shot 1st. I think we need to look at just what is going on along the Turkey-Syria border. Just why is ISIS not being economically isolated by closing the borders around it?

If Russia is forced to take out the Regime in Turkey, I won’t be shedding many tears.

The evil midget would rather pave the parking lot you mentioned with bodies of his subjects. That’s the picture worth enjoying.
