Russian president Vladimir Putin has accused the U.S. of being complicit in the destruction of its military jet two days ago - suggesting the Americans knew exactly when and where it was travelling.
In a press conference at the Kremlin tonight, Putin said the Russians had given prior information to the U.S. of the flight path of the plane - but the U.S. had 'leaked' the information to Turkey.
In other developments, Putin's dreaded S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems - mobilised in the wake of the jet's destruction - were photographed being unloaded from military transports in Syria.
He also vowed to join France in coordinating bombing campaigns against ISIS forces and agreed to share intelligence information.

Well I certainly hope our Congress wakes up before zero gets us into a shooting war defending Islam. Zero switched sides in the War on Terror, we are now siding with the terrorists. Ironic isn’t it that Mr Nobel Peace Prize is starting wars all over the place. Only proves that liberals the world over are idiots.
It was the insane neocons that started this entire mess. Neocons should be placed in jail and never again have any say in our foreign policy.
Interesting you want to put Americans in jail while you give a pass to Russia as it invades Georgia and Ukraine and illegally annexes Crimea.
Russia is about as messed up a country as you can find. No semblance of constitutional government as Putin is elected for life. Horrible economy which has two exports, oil and armaments sold to enemies of freedom, IslamoTheocracies, and used to destabilize places throughout the world.
Not to mention the missile technology and nuclear materials sold to Iran.
Putin’s a lying douche. That’s nothing new. Thanks Fred.
The Crimea belongs to Russia.
Neocons have been running our regime change/nation building foreign policy since the days of H.W. Bush. How is that working out for the us?
I think on this Thanksgiving day we should all be grateful for turkey... but not Turkey..
It's a one man's trash another man's treasure thing -- Erdogan regards the Kurds (not just one faction, because the factions have been much better at cooperating since the Shah fell, ironically) as terrorists; it's not dissimilar to the narcoterrorists killing their way in the southeastern US. Erdogan is one of perhaps two Islamofascist leaders in the Middle East that is better than whatever will follow (the other one being the twerp Hashemite king of Jordan). Furthermore, Turkey's in NATO, and NATO is the best option we've got to keep the bloodthirsty mass-murdering imperialist criminal regime in Moscow from overrunning the Earth.
That said, I support the creation of Kurdistan, but it'll have to start in Iraq and Syria, which are already failed states -- thanks to Iran.
Exactly. Your comments are spot on. Putin is looking after Russian interests and also doing the job that the US should be doing - taking out Islamic jihadists. It’s so sickening to live in a country whose administration is making enemies of those it should be allying itself with, and teaming up with and supporting those it should be destroying.
At least he’s actually fighting Islamic jihadis, rather than train them and give them weaponry, and hire them, and let them flood into the country, like obunghole is doing.
whine whine whine.
Well .. you may be correct in your assessment, but that doesn’t change the current facts on the ground.
Turkey is a member of NATO .. and we are a part of that current agreement.
Thanks for the link. I’ve been following anti radar strategy since I first heard of ‘Wild Weasel’ and HARM.
You know nothing if you think that is an accurate statement
Yes. Exactly. Obama led from behind and bullied NATO into toppling Muammar Gaddafi with its air strikes and installing a group of Muslim rebels into power. It had no business on that side of the Med in my opinion.
Yes, they are impressive. But my main focus in reviewing all the capabilities were what the stand-off ranges for each of the HARM, JSOW ....none of them even approached the 400 nm range. I guess in theory the MALD could be over 400 NM but it didn’t have a launch range that I saw.
“Russia is no worse than the fag loving communist scumbags (led by Obama)”
Not even close. Obama is term limited. Putin is self-imposed in election after election and decides when he steps down. And interestingly, the communist lover is the KGB agent who has annexed and invaded other countries.
“The Crimea belongs to Russia.”
Like Spain belongs to the Islamic hordes. Not really.
I see history is not your thing.
