This is a little over the top.
It is so far over top even the tinfoil hatters are Picard face palming.
No chance in Hades of WW III starting.
Obama is not going to stand by his NATO commitments any more than he stood by his red line.
We have a Pentagon full of social engineers and a Muslim (sympathizer, at least) in the White House.
Mr. 'phone and pen' wouldn't hesitate to entangle us in a war that pits us against one of the other major non-muslim powers, one the Chinese are likely to side with. If that gets really nasty, then there will only be a few non Muslim powers to contend with, and most of those are already invaded.
Sounds very hugh and most series!!
agreed..
I agree. It’s a discomforting escalation, but I don’t think the players involved want an expanded war.
The problem with Putin sticking his nose out, is that it then becomes a prime target.
Putin, keep your aircraft over Syria.
Turkey, don’t be too anxious to mix it up. This may not turn out as spiffy as you think.
Agreed. This is ridiculous.
Honestly, when I woke up to the news of the downed jet, and learned that Turkey had shot it down, I had a sinking feeling in my stomach.
Say, for instance, Russia decides to take out some SAM sites in Turkey...for their own ‘safety’.
The best case scenario that can result from this: a demonstration to the world once and for all that NATO is a joke, and membership is meaningless. That’s the BEST result. All Putin has to do is push the issue with Turkey.
“This is a little over the top.”
Agree. Obama will not ever pull the trigger for war. Never. If the United States is ever attacked, it will be his subordinates who will have to take over.
