Welp..there's that.

[MNDude]

huh???

[Mike Darancette]

Turkey doesn’t have to allow the empty planes to land.

[eartick]

Sounds like they are evacuating their citizens and getting ready to punch back if need be on the Turks.

Just a wild guess on this rather cryptic translation of Vlads statement.

This is NOT a joke...Kurdistan is a good and safe vacation place. Russians going there for vacation and spending their money with the Kurds there would send a great message to the Islamist president of Turkey and his cronies in the Islamic government he is building in Turkey.

Only thing worth a shi* in Turkey are cheap pistachio nuts, I landed there and told my crew lets get the hell out of here after we got our pistachios.

[soycd]

The good people of turkey need to get rid of the islamic nutjobs ruining the place.

[who_would_fardels_bear]

Isn't 'oda' Turkish for brothel?

Why ODATV?

[ZOOKER]

The Russians have lusted after Turkey since before the Cold War started.

Turkey controls the only access from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean, along with the only land access from Europe to the Middle East.

I think Putin figures he can take it and Obama won't do anything but whine about it. He's probably right.

We are about to find out how "flexible" Obama can be.

Uh-oh. Also read today that the Turks are moving armor up to the Syrian border. Seen some pics of it in transport, but I don’t have a hard confirmation on it yet.

I hope NATO doesn’t get dragged into this.

This Russia/Turkey situation gets more unsettling as it unfolds. Today has been quite the news day. Here’s hoping come Monday things have settled down.

[Mat_Helm]

Time to pull out of Incirlik Air Base unless you want a shooting war with Russia!!!

[mikey_hates_everything]

25 years ago and further back, I would have been for Turkey. Times and attitudes have changed, especially since 2001.

[Iron Munro]

Before this is over Turkey will rue the day they decided to shoot that Russian fighter down.

[DiogenesLamp]

Russia sending in empty planes to Turkey.(Google translation)

This is just the first of it.

[bgill]

Couldn’t care less about muslim Turkey. Just as long as we don’t get dragged into it. Every time we’ve asked to use their air space, we’ve had to beg, plead and bow down to their demands.

[Logical me]

Turkey is not friendly to America and is a sick Muslim nation.

Russia is a pest and not worthy of our friendship but at least most of the people still like America.

Both are crap!

[BobL]

Sounds like there won’t be much left of Turkey, once Putin evacuates his fellow countrymen.

Someone has to stop this ISLAMIC MARCH, and it looks like it will be Putin.
