Nov 24, 2015 Typical Russia. First they provoke everyone for no reason and when somebody responses they play the victim and pretend they didn't do anything wrong. Turkey is stupid as well. They couldn't find better time to heat up already bad relations between NATO and Russia. smh
Nov 24, 2015 It was right on the border even radars can't properly tell that s---. Turkey shoulda chilled
Nov 24, 2015 Regardless if it was in Turkish airspace the jets obviously opposed no threat to Turkey considering they were on the very border as they landed in Syria. Turkey should have escorted them out not shot them down even with warnings (if they really did warn them).
Nov 24, 2015 Turkey has released evidence that they actually did warn them several times. It was stupid for Turkey to s---t the jet down at a time like this but countries are also sick of Russia/Putin thinking they can do whatever they want. This was meant to send a message tbh.
Nov 24, 2015 Ahh didn't know that. And yeah I agree it was stupid, there are other ways to send a message without killing two pilots
Nov 24, 2015 True... At the same time, the jet was warned several times to leave lol. Russia does this a lot with the U.S. as well around Alaska or even off our west coast but that usually results in some jets escorting the Russian plane out. I'm sure the pilots didn't think they'd get shot down, they probably thought they'd get escorted out but clearly Turkey wasn't having it. If you play with fire, don't be surprised if you get burnt.
Nov 25, 2015 Erdogan is f----- up now, with his so called "Brothers Turkmen", the bad thing is the "modorate Rebells - Turkmens" killed one russian Pilot in the air as he was parachuting down. This is against the charta of Geneva Convention. The solution of this is 1. Russia is closing the Syria-Airspace with his anti-aircraft weapon system S-400 Triumph. 2. The Russians will bomb the Turkmens and Erdogan can just watch and do nothing because of the S-400 and they dont have a UN-Resolution to act in Syria. 3. Turkey will be closed for Russian tourism, the same thing like in Egypt, and other Sanctions will follow.
Nov 25, 2015 Russia isnt strong enough to start a war like that and NATO isnt able to defend themselves against Russia. No one would profit. So no WWII.
Nov 26, 2015 NATO isn't able to defend themselves against Russia??? Look guys, I understand Russia is a super power and all with a large military but NATO consists of nearly 30 countries, 4 of them being world super powers (U.S., France, Germany, U.K.). Russia entering a military conflict with NATO would isolate them. Not even their biggest ally in China would back them or want to get involved in anyway.
