Not a smooth move on Turkey’s part. Russia needs a “for sure” warm water port.

Yes, Putin’s done more than the worthless dork we have.

What’s funny is that when Putin says there will be consequences, you know he’s not BSing. Obama saying the same thing? Yawn.

Sad state of affairs. What an embarrassment.

A few weeks ago, there were reports that China was about to enter the theatre with several fighter jets.

==

It is difficult to determine who is on whose side in this mess. Some reports say ISIS/ISIL is being secretly supported by Iran, as Iran is letting them do the dirty work. Yet, Iran is a supposed good ally of Russia. Syrian rebels supposedly oppose Assad, another Russian ally, but are being armed by the US and its allies, yet some report that weaponry going to the rebels ends up with ISIS/ISIL. The Kurds have been begging for armaments to fight ISIS/ISIL but no one seems to want to help them. France has chastised its allies for not jumping in to help them, especially after the recent Paris attacks. And the Saudis are building up their military and air power.

==

As many have concluded: World War III has been going on for a while. Things will likely get worse.

The big question: Can this be contained to the current theatre — Syria and surrounding — or will it spill over to other areas not currently being touched by it?

The Turks support ISIS. They should be thrown out of NATO and the EU.

The what do you do about Obama?

Makes me think of Benghazi and who Stevens met with just before he was ambushed. Not that I know how any of the dots connect.

Putin has done more to eradicate Isis or the Daesh in two weeks than Obama has done in 7 years.


And that is why he is hated.

The Russia hating crowd out there wants a fight with Putin more than they want to fight ISIS.

And this comes ahead of Hollande’s planned meeting with Putin on Thursday.


Shooting down a Russian jet ahead of the French meeting with Putin is no accident. This was pre-planned by the Turks at the behest of maybe by the CIA or the Saudis.

Turkey supports terrorists. Always has. Always will. They aren’t our allies. They’re our enemies.

So hundreds of thousands of Turks violate European borders everyday not counting the Syrian Refugees, yet one Russian Jet attacking moslum fighters and Turkey goes to war!

Nuke em Putem.

What I hold against Putin and Russia is their assistance to the Ayatollahs in Iran in developing their nuclear capabilities.

And Barack Obama and Senator Bob Corker (Republican-Tennessee) with his Corker Bill have no problem with helping Iran with their nuclear capabilities, either.

I suspect Israel and the Israel Lobby in their hearts have no problem since their lobby group, AIPAC, will support members of Congress for re-election who voted for the Iran nuclear deal.

There is nothing in the Corker bill about the U.S. supplying enriched uranium to Iran.
Putin’s new deal with Iran will supply them with uranium and Russia will also be buying enriched uranium from Iran.
