Turkey considers airspace well into 20 klicks into Syria as an unofficial no fly No Fly Zone,
which means it can continue safely plastering the Kurds. Meanwhile Russia has been plastering Turkmen (an ethnic minority,whom Turkey supports)who are taking on Assad forces in this region.
This is more about Turkey controlling whats happening just over its border,than about its airspace being violated

Seriously? You want to survive a nuclear holocaust? I would prefer to be vaporized.
The human race is counting on those of us who aren't going to give in nor give up..lol. I'm sure there are thousands of dudes already in camo way better prepared than above..sit back in the lazyboy and wait for the vapour?...or go out fighting?

Good luck fighting a thermonuclear detonation. And the fallout that will render everything radioactive. I enjoy fresh vegetables and a decent steak too much to live for years on canned goods. Not to mention hanging around with the camouflaged rednecks.

Well might as well do a dry run... Grab yourself a Costco chicken and enjoy!

If ever there be a nuclear holocaust, I think the survivors will soon enough wish they had died in the holocaust.

I have already seen too many people suffer and agonize over the final years of their lives.

In the end, we are going to die anyway. For me, quality of life is a more important priority than length of life.

Those Turkmen pretty much wrote their own obituary by circulating a video of them killing Russian airmen hanging from parachutes. I think the Russians are gonna now focus on helping the Syrians reestablish control of their border with Turkey. The Russians have a far greater ability to establish a no fly zone in that corridor. It will be a great marketing tool for S400.

Immoral and unethical behavior and a war crime.


Further you may have read how Luftwaffe fighter pilots reacted when some Nazi idiot wanted them to strafe Allied pilots in their parachutes - almost to a man they refused saying that besides being immoral, what did they expect would next happen to shot down Luftwaffe pilots.

Pretty disgusting and incredibly foolish. I think they are gonna live to regret that. I think all the strikes in that area are now gonna be with a pretty powerful Russian CAP. I bet Russian fighter reinforcements are already on the way.

I don't get it....

All along Turkey has been crying for help fighting Isis.

Nonstop if I recall.

Now here comes Russia wanting to fight Isis, which is what Turkey wants, and blam, Turkey shoots down the Russians.

What am I missing here?

Rule #1: Everybody has an agenda in the Middle East.

Turkey wants to get rid of Assad, Russia wants Assad to stay.
