Turkey’s shooting down of a Russian jet fighter is a “critical moment†for the U.S. and its allies to stand up to Moscow, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said Tuesday.
Hours after the Kremlin condemned Turkey’s decision to shoot down the warplane for entering its airspace, Rubio warned against letting Russia get the upper hand.
“It's important for us to be very clear that we will respond and defend Turkey if they come under assault from the Russians. Otherwise the entire NATO alliance comes into question,†Rubio, who is running for president, said on Fox News.

Skip that shiite.
Let Putin have his way wit dohz bitches...
Utterly ridiculous. Defend against what? Seventeen seconds of airspace use? Turkey is the aggressor in this conflict.
Chicken hawk.
Suit up Rubio and go fight, you little snivelling twit.
Exactly.
McCain Jr Neocon warmonger wanna-be someone important Rubio...STFU
Yeah, let’s go to war with Russia to defend the Islamic (under Edrogen) nation Turkey.

FUMR
Agreed. Utterly ridiculous. He’s a McCain boy.
Rubio should grab a gun and show us the way. Kind of hard to sound patriotic when he wants to give what Americans fought for to third world socialists and intruders who thumb their noses at our laws.
So Rubio wants World War III, to defend Turkey’s “right” to shoot down Russian planes?
With Rubio, at the behest of his donors, you’ll get more gay persecution of Christians, and World War on the side of the Caliphate.
How about throw the muslim country out of NATO micro-b1tch?
Weak
Wow. That’s an ender. Goodbye Rubio.
Turkey has no business being in NATO. NATO is a defense pact, not an aggression pact. NATO has no obligation to come to the aid of a country that engages in an overt act of War against Russia. To allow Turkey to push Putin’s buttons and then rely on NATO to come to its defense makes NATO a suicide pact.
They should be removed from NATO immediately.
Wow, so much for Rubio’s judgment.
Sorry, RINOubio. Still on Putin’s side.
And since Turky is revealing its natural muslim side, no one gives a smelly Obamathing about what Putin does to it.
NATO is a joke.
Has been for years.
Want WW III over Turkey? Are you Barking Mad! Putin will plot another way to make Turkey pay besides war. Would NATO really risk Nuke War over a border skirmish? Would Paris, Berlin, London fight Russia over Ankara? Just one of a change of events that might start a war.
at the behest of his donors
True that.
Agreed.
