Good catch, too many stories get followed without confirmation. Fine with me if this happens, I thought Russia and Turkey’s economies have been suffering quite a bit.
The guy is a die-hard loyal to the end Putinista. He's here with a bunch of other phonies pushing Putin's expansionist agenda in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Why they are allowed to remain here is a mystery to me.
Good point! That is exactly the Trump message. “What’s the sense if it gets you nothing.”
I hope 0dunga’s finger isn’t on the nuke button when his true colors come out. Turkey showed their true colors and with Muslims it’s NEVER good.
I hate Communism (relatives in Romania and Poland) and I don’t trust Putin as far as I could throw him, but IMHO he’s doing the right thing by squishing muslim cockroaches.
The less of them there are, the better the world will be.
You may find this interesting. It is a talk that goes into depth on analysis of the situation brewing in the Middle East based on historical empires and conflicts.

It specifically discusses the conflict between Russia and Turkey and predicts that Russia will conquer Turkey.
But here is the kicker: The talk that the speaker gives was done in September. The Russians flew their first bombing run in Syria on September 30. Turkey was not yet in the picture.
Obama has balls. You just can't see them because McConnell and Ryan are in the way playing Charlie Sheen.
No dyengi for you!
We shouldn’t be giving that Islamist government any money, either.
More nonsense.
From wiki:
Cause of accident according to Polish report:
“The immediate cause of the accident was the descent below the minimum descent altitude at an excessive rate of descent in weather conditions which prevented visual contact with the ground, as well as a delayed execution of the go-around procedure. Those circumstances led to an impact on a terrain obstacle resulting in separation of a part of the left wing with aileron and consequently to the loss of aircraft control and eventual ground impact”[81]
Circumstances contributing to the accident:[81]
1. Failure to monitor altitude by means of a pressure altimeter during a non-precision approach;
2. failure by the crew to respond to the PULL UP warning generated by the TAWS;
3. attempt to execute the go-around maneuver under the control of ABSU (automatic go-around);
4. Approach Control confirming to the crew the correct position of the airplane in relation to the RWY threshold, glide slope, and course which might have affirmed the crew’s belief that the approach was proceeding correctly although the airplane was actually outside the permissible deviation margin;
5. failure by LZC to inform the crew about descending below the glide slope and delayed issuance of the level-out command;
6. incorrect training of the Tu-154M flight crews in the 36 Regiment.
Conducive circumstances:[81]
1. incorrect coordination of the crew’s work, which placed an excessive burden on the aircraft commander in the final phase of the flight;
2. insufficient flight preparation of the crew;
3. the crew’s insufficient knowledge of the airplane’s systems and their limitations;
4. inadequate cross-monitoring among the crew members and failure to respond to the mistakes committed;
5. crew composition inadequate for the task;
6. ineffective immediate supervision of the 36 Regiment’s flight training process by the Air Force Command;
7. failure by the 36 Regiment to develop procedures governing the crew’s actions in the event of:
o failure to meet the established approach criteria;
o using radio altimeter for establishing alarm altitude values for various types of approach;
o distribution of duties in a multi-crew flight.
8. sporadic performance of flight support duties by LZC over the last 12 months, in particular under difficult WC, and lack of practical experience as LZC at the SMOLENSK NORTH airfield.

Even your own silly article says:
“Earlier this week—on April 8, 2014—Polskie Radio reported that the Polish District Military Prosecutor in Warsaw, Colonel Ireneusz Szelag, presented 1,300 pages of documentation, in advance of the four-year anniversary, ruling out “any possibility that an explosion occurred aboard the Polish presidential plane that crashed in Smolensk on 10 April 2010.†The prosecutor stated, “After analysing 700 samples, experts found no traces that an explosion had taken place aboard the Tu-154 plane… The experts had unimpeded access to the site of the catastrophe, and to the place where the wreck of the plane is being stored.†The prosecutor stated that the investigation would be closed next year, even if the aircraft’s wreckage is not returned to Poland.â€

Nonsense. Turkey runs a huge trade deficit with Russia importing much more than it exports. And Russia is basically broke. The Putin worship here is extraordinary.
Crazy stuff. Equating Reagan and Putin? The zombies have taken over FR. Good grief.
You get the drift since I have posted it before - and you NEVER respond on the merits.
I really get a kick out of this love affair with Putin. Putin, who had apparently been warned time and again not to invade Turkish air space, stupidly miscalculated that Turkey would never take action. Then, when because of Putin's incompetence, one of his jets gets blown out of the air, there are people who want to compare him to Reagan.
Putin should be embarrassed by this screwup, but I know what he's doing. He's locked away in some room, brooding and planning how he can poison President Erdogan, kidnap his children or something equally stupid.
When’s the last time the U.S. did this?
I do recall giving a ton of dough to iran, however.
It’s extremely sad when Americans wish their leader was more like Putin.
Putin to Turkey “It’s not you, it’s me. This relationship is over”
