Drudge now up with a video of shooting. Gunman goes on an almost minute long rant after shooting.

We’d have to look at the decedent’s jaw.

“”Killing an ambassador is an act of War””

Well, maybe in a bygone era but certainly not in 2012..

WWI started similarly but for far less.

For far more, according to the numerous histories I've read.

I'm sure it was just an oversight but the WSJ (formerly a great newspaper) left out the Allahu Akbar! part.

The analyses I've read on the Franz Ferdinand assassination were that he was a minor official and parties on both sides were itching for the match to light the fuse. Had Ferdinand been killed in some other circumstances it would have been a footnote in history.

But, I could be wrong.

August 1914 all over again? Weird


Damn straight. Anyone who knows even a little history gets scared.

Russia might not blame a you tube video and cross their arms and say “whatever” when terrorists kill their ambassador.

Obama can tell Putin he will just have to let Russia be a “browner” nation.

He was the heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the Emperor, his uncle Franz-Joseph, was in his dotage. Franz Ferdinand was so close to being Emperor that he had already sat for his official coronation portrait. The coronation portrait had been completed, and they were just waiting for his uncle to expire, so that he could be crowned, and the portrait shown to the public.

(I was only pretending to get you on grammar. You said something like Obama “was going to” mess things up. Wrong verb form meaning he already has FUBAR.) ;)

We donot know who did it.

IMHO, it was one os the radical islamic sects, whom the Russians and Syrians are defeating now because both Russia and Syria, in that civil war, have now pretty nuch taken off all of the gloves and are bombing rebel held areas to rubble...civilians or no inhabiting those areas.

We did much the same in World War II to Germany and to Japan.

Turkey has been hard on the Kurds, but very light on the islamic extremeists in Syria (as has bama) and so those sects may be trying, of a flase glag may be trying to gear up a fight with Turkey.

My point was siple, Turkey is a NATO ally and any seiois war against them could easily drag us into the fray depedning on how it came down.

That makes it a potentially serious issue..
