I cannot believe the adulation Russia brings.

I can. Conservatives are so desperate for a dog in the fight that isn't biting them, they readily embrace whomever is openly attacking those perceived as enemies.

This isn't limited to Russia, and the phenomenon encompasses a number of odd political affections of late.

Russia is not an ally here they are Assad’s ally. Russia is out for itself. Obama has lied about what his goals in Syria are so most do not understand who he is actively helping. Neither are the good guys. None of this is going anywhere good.

Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip ErdoÄŸan has called an emergency security meeting involving his top generals, heads of intelligence, Prime Minister DavutoÄŸlu and other senior ministers, CNN Turk and others report.

You’d better.

That may be the reason Russia provoked Turkey. Rumor has it Turkey is supporting ISIS. This could be the excuse Russia uses to take them out.

All this talk about Turkey, so close to Thanksgiving, is making me hungry.

Did you mean Hungary? Okay, but watch out for Greece.

“Who among us might think that perhaps Obama is putting them up to this?”

Obama, no. He/she/it’s not mentally capable of such a thing. The CIA, quite possibly. It’s a certainty the CIA is up the their eyeballs in this mess.

Turkey is a NATO member. What does the US do if (when) Russia seeks revenge?

I have a very bad feeling about this.

“It’s a civil war”

A civil war if you consider Iran and other radical agents in the region formed ISIS (with our help) and are seeking to overthrow all non-Muslim leaders in the region for the purpose of creating their Caliphate. Then yeah its a civil war.

Putin will release the evidence showing ISIS trucks delivering oil into Turkey by the end of the day.

We’ll see how united NATO really is. I suspect it won’t be. It shouldn’t be in this case.

“Turkey used to be a good country and should have been a strong ally of the US.”

Our Fraud president decided that Assad Bad and Muslim Brotherhood Good.

Half of American voters elected and reelected a god, whose decisions are not to be questioned because he is a Democrat.

To hell with Turkey. I could care less if Russia bombed them as well. Turkey is more of an enemy than Russia.

The Bible?

Or did you mean the Quran?

There won’t be a “Caliphate” in the Middle East anytime soon. Islamic countries are typically unstable and rife with internal squabbles among various religious and tribal factions. That doesn’t change — and usually gets worse — when you remove the non-Muslim leaders.

“they have more money than us! we are nearly 20 trillion in debt!”

It’s unpatriotic to even mention the national debt when a Democrat is president.

The Russian military may not be mile wide but inch deep, but it’s close. They have some hot new stuff and new organization,like quick action brigades instead of ponderous divisions. But it is not easy or quick to repair 25 years of rot.without nukes they couldn’t deal with the Chinese. Their supposed strength is only in contrast to NATO’s forces being allowed to atrophy these last fifteen years. If they are as strong as portrayed they will do something about this. I won’t hold my breath.

The Bible. They killed people who couldn’t recite something from their garbage book.

I would love to see them paid back.

Is there anything from the Bible quoted in the muslim book?

Is the Orthodox bible Completely different from our bible?

there must be at least SOME similarities, now?
