THIS IS MY SHOCKED FACE:
and our dear leader supports turkey-
Coinkidink? I think not
America apparently supports ISIS too.
Dear God, let me out of this lunatic asylum ;/
“Russian President Vladimir Putin has finally told the world what the Kurds have been saying for over a year. That the Turkish state, it’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and AKP government are facilitating, supporting and benefiting from the terror waged by ISIS (Daesh).”
Would be nice if someone looked at the map of the middle east and understand what is happening. If Syria falls, with Turkey the next in line and already an ISIS supporter, it is a short hop across the Black Sea to Russia. And what is the biggest port on that side of the pond? Ukraine.
Puts Russia’s gameplan for protecting the motherland in perspective.
Whoops! And the conflict grows again.
I don’t recall ever sitting back and watching the rest of the world wage war. It’s not as bad as I thought. I might be enjoying it at our nation’s own future peril.
It’s been said, but, just like the last World War, it started and the USA will again be late to the party. Everytime (this will be the 3rd time) the USA decides to go isolationist, this is what happens. We always end up having to get involved. What will be the cause this time that gets us engaged in this one and when will it happen? Will it be a major attack in the US that steers us? The next President?
FReepers, hold your kids tight and love them all you can. Some of us may be sending them off to war in the coming years. Thank you Mr. President.
As I recall, the Kurds have been warning us about Turkey for four decades.
“Lots of oil and oil products from ISIS controlled areas flow to Turkey”
No wonder we couldn’t find those tank trucks for a year and a half.
THIS IS MY SHOCKED FACE:
The Kurds and Turks are long-time enemies, so the tenor of this article is not at all surprising. Still, from everything I’ve read thus far about this incident it seems apparent Turkey screwed up, and its allies that killed some of the Russian air crew after they had ejected from their damaged aircraft definitely f***ed up. Shooting at aircrews in parachutes is one of the biggest no-no’s there is. It is nothing short of murder.
Turkey supports ISIS
Saudi Arabia Supports ISIS
Saudi Arabia is our friend and Turkey is our NATO ally.
....head exploding.
The Russians should arm the Kurds to the teeth and let them carve Kurdistan out of Turkey and Iraq.
The US is no longer in control of it's military. I would be for a coup right about now, but it won't happen. Obama cleared the military of officers with loyalties to the constitution and the people years ago.
Obama wants Americans to stand against Russia on behalf of ISIS and all Sunni Headchoppers and their are idiots here on Free Republic eating it up!
Obama is now Persona Non Grata with the Russians and the Kurds.
Obama had a window of a month or so to go against ISIS , but he will not do so in actuality, because ISIS is funded by the Saudis.
Now Israel will have to align with Russia. Thank you Oblama, What an arse!
Is there just one honest politician in the world, who is satisfied with his salary and will do his best by his country and fellow humans? Even just one?
Kick their asses out of NATO today!
