Israel to Russians: Your puny missile systems belong to us now Bitchez!! This is very humiliating for the Russians. This accusation makes them sound like a whining baby. Their technology, tactics and training (assuming the Syrian AD crew was competent) probably suck. The Israelis just took advantage of it. As the saying goes: All’s fair in luv and war.

The chihuahua can have lots of fun with the bear. Until the bear decides to bite.

The Israelis are playing a dangerous game. I can see Putin deciding to do something unpleasant to them, at a time and place of his choosing.

Well, it WAS a Syrian AD crew that shot down the plane. The extent to which the Israelis knowingly gamed their AD system is a big question mark (for now).

Speaking of which, I wonder what will happen to that crew? Will they be retrained, disciplined or “disappeared”? If the latter, I can’t imagine other AD crews being too eager to fire in the future.
