Russia would do the same thing. In fact, Putin’s friends recently shot down a commercial airliner with Putin’s weapons and then looted the crash site. I believe that Putin refused to believe that Turkey would ever stick up for itself and that Russia could just ignore Turkish borders. Putin screwed up again and miscalculated.

Russia would not do the same. KL-007 was a huge f-up and everyone knows it on both sides. We and the Russians have been playing cat and mouse games at each other's boarders since before the end of WWII with fighters, with bombers, with ships, with submarines and with spies. 99.99% of the time you chase the other side off, and it never goes hot. Checking each other out is what you do - but no sane person wants to start WWIII over it.
