Rubio calls to 'defend Turkey' against Putin
The Hill ^ | Nov 24 2015 | The Hill

Posted on 11/24/2015 8:03:32 PM PST by WilliamIII

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.

“I couldn’t understand why anyone thought he was brilliant.”

Who’s “anyone”? Is he a freeper? And where did he get such a crazy idea?

FU Rubio.

Rubio is in the same circle jerk as Odinga, Hillary, McCain, and Graham. Russia is simply cleaning up the mess made by these cretins when they armed and funded the muslim terrorists who became ISIS.

The people of the USA are not at war with Russia, and don't want to be. The Democrats and RINOs in Washington, DC are the enemies of civilized people everywhere.

...NATO is a defense pact, not an aggression pact....

Nor, is it a suicide pact to protect against minor border incursions. Leave Turkey to the islamics.

Exactly.

Not only that:
- Turkey violated Greek airspace over 2000 times just last year alone - not a shot was fired.
- Turkey has repeatedly refused to let the US fly over Turkish territory in its tussle with Iraq and for other regional skirmishes

For these reasons alone they should have been kicked out of NATO long ago.

So RUBEio wants us to defend Turkey against Russia. The same Turkey that supports ISIS? I don’t care for Vlad Putin, but let he and the Russians have at it with those backstabbing, two-faced Turks.

Stupid little Cuban puke should shut his yap before somebody stuffs a fist into it. Napoleon complex all the way.

Yeah, Rubio, you used rump swab - that’s just the advice America needs! Let’s go to war with Russia! Another RINO crap-for-brains punkster wants to prove his manhood at the country’s expense. Let’s get into a shooting war with Putin - and do so just to protect a bunch of genocidal Muslims. That should work out really well for us, especially with the cocaine snorting sodomite clown we presently have leading from behind his golf bag in the Rainbow Hut!

Really bright move, sparky. Go back home to Havana, Marco. You’re too stupid to be president. I would not trust you to run a taco stand.

Globalist jingoism doesn’t sell.
Can anyone get excited about defending the interests of Saudi Arabia, central banks and multi-national corporations.

Rubio is now totally kookified. I have never seen such insanity but this is the narrative that the globalist want but shall not have.
R$Russia was invited by the sovereign government of Syria to help them against ISIS. The Globalists have used Turkey ( Nato) to provoke Russia with a wanton aggressive act. They not only shot down the Russian SU 24 for nothing, The turks killed the pilots ( a WAR CRIME!!) .
Russia should and WILL RETALIATE SEVERELY !! Then these sorry globalist scum will say to America “ NOW YOU MUST GO FIGHT RUSSIA UNDER “ARTICLE” 5 OF THE NATO RAG CHARTER”. ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! WE have no dog in that fight whatsoever. That suggestion must be met with a firestorm from the American people. We love Russia KILLING ISIS!! Assad never did a thing to our belove3d country!! We should be fighting WITH RUSSIA AND ASSAD!! THis is madness!!

Rubio will change his tune right quick if told he would be at the head of those going to defend Turkey. Rubio and those of his ilk have no qualms against shedding the blood of others. It is just their blood they can’t stand the sight of. And to think that I voted for the son of a bitch.

Of course Rubio calls for defending Turkey. Why wasn’t he one of those who asked the sane question, why not just escort them out? Besides, they “occupied” the space for seconds, not minutes.

I’m hardly a supporter of Putin (even though I cheer him on sometimes) but this take down by Turkey was a bad move.

I don’t trust Rubio. He’s my senator, I won’t get fooled again.
