“Why were the Russian turds flying in Turkey’s air-space?”
Are we sure about that? Both the Russians and Turks have reasons to lie about the incident ie, the exact flight path and any reasons for possible deviation into Turkish airspace.
The Turks want to get Assad out so they can annex part of northern Syria and have a sphere of influence in Syria. The Russians are squarely behind Assad who opposes Turkish encroachment. It would seem that The Turks would want to undermine Putin’s logistical and political position. I don’t see any advantage for Putin to have his planes intentionally violate Turkish airspace.
Who knows what NATO is up to these days.

I’m no NATO expert but I don’t believe their charter allowed for such actions.
I still believe the US/NATO was on the WRONG side of that conflict even if their charter DID allow for such.
