It Wasn't Us - Pentagon Shrugs At "Exaggerating, Sloppy, Uncaring" Russian Jet Shootdown

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The Pentagon's army colonel Steve Warren has made it clear how Washington feels about the unraveling situation in Syria. In not so many words, Warren explained 'not our problem', pointing out the Russian jet shootdown is "a Russia-Turkey issue," and that US was not ionvolved. He then quickly moved on to the propaganda section of the briefing, explaining how "sloppy, uncaring" Russia was "exaggerating" its achievements in Syria.

  • *WARREN SAYS RUSSIAN JET SHOOTDOWN A TURKEY-RUSSIA ISSUE
  • *WARREN SAYS SHOOTDOWN NOT ISSUE INVOLVING U.S.-BACKED COALITION

The Pentagon explains, it wasn't us...

“Our Turkish Allies informed us that their military aircraft shot down a Russian military aircraft near the Syrian border after it violated Turkish airspace on Tuesday. At this time, we can confirm that US forces were not involved in this incident,” the official said.

 

 

And Bloomberg headlines explain how Washington really feels...

  • *WARREN SAYS RUSSIA EXAGGERATED SAYING IT DESTROYED 500 TRUCKS
  • *WARREN SAYS NO U.S. PERSONNEL IN AREA WHERE RUSSIA JET DOWNED
  • *WARREN SAYS RUSSIAN PLANE DIDN'T RESPOND TO TURKISH WARNINGS
  • *WARREN SAYS RUSSIAN MILITARY STRIKES ARE `SLOPPY,' UNCARING
  • *WARREN CITES REPORTS OF HIGH CIVILIAN CASUALTIES FROM RUSSIA

Finally, 

Warren says it can confirm that the Turks warned the Russian plane 10 times before shooting down the jet.

 

He said they were working to establish exactly where the plane was when it was shot down.

They've finally learned about making claims as to what the actual facts are when they don't actually know or know that they're false.

If the past is any indicator, Russia was pulling their usual provocative tricks thinking nobody would step up to them.  They were wrong and someone armed with a US made weapon knew he had teh upper hand over cheap Russian crap.  This is Putins fault and nobody else's.

This is a turkey-russia problem?  Oh, just like we told Saddam that it was an Iraqi-Kuwaiti problem 25 years ago?

 

"WARREN SAYS RUSSIA EXAGGERATED SAYING IT DESTROYED 500 TRUCKS"

At least they supplied video, instead of after 3-4 years there the Pentagon the same week announced it had destroyed 100 trucks.

WARREN SAYS RUSSIAN JET SHOOTDOWN A TURKEY-RUSSIA ISSUE

My interpretation of this statement is that Turkey, due to its own stupidity and duel complicity, is on its own and any retaliation by Russia will not be covered under NATO Article 5. Article 5 states that " an attack on one Ally shall be considered an attack on all Allies." 

Vlad just received the implicit go-ahead (as if he needed permission) to implement a rebuttal in the form of a "Turkey shoot" on those responsible.

So when Vlad creates a no fly zone over all of Syria excluding Israeli, French and US aircraft, is that just a Syria-Russia issue?

Commence no-fly zone on the border region between Syria-Turkey in Latakia. Putin will deny Turkey it's own airspace in that region where they are operating. Russia's pilots & SAM operators will have orders to shoot first and ask questions later when it comes to Turkey's air assets. Russia may even take out Turkey's SAM sites too.

I'm sure Vlad's aware of that rule and will be cautious of whatever the fuck the Pentagram or U.S. Gov-scum say that might invite Putin to attack Turkey.

They may be saying they won't involved now just to fake Vlad into attacking.  After that they'll get all kinds of involved and continue to blame Russia for this whole mess.

I'm sure Vlad, as usual, is more than just a few steps ahead of these guys on the chess board right now.

I agree with you both. On one hand, we have no say in who runs the government any more. It's now government of the people, by the puppets, for the banksters.

On the other hand, if a majority of our populace wasn't dumbed down, numbed out and utterly self-absorbed, we'd have gotten the pitchforks and torches out by now.

Years ago there was a video of a State Dept. representative (I think her name was Katherine Brown), where Saddam asked what the consequences would be if he escalated his situation with Kuwait, he was told that "we have little interest in the region", or something like that.  The video hasn't been able to be found for quite a few years now.

Why would any developed country with a modern air force and navy need to exaggerate about how well it has been targeting people with no air force, and almost no SAM capability?

Pure propaganda. I'm not suggesting that Russia is more effective than the U.S., but this is literally target practice.

Since when do "Americans" fit into the equation any more? The liberals stopped caring about war once 0bama was selected, and your average conservative is so worn down by 0bama's lies and bullshit and complete foreign policy failure that they don't know what to think about anything anymore.

Anyways. If you bother to think about it, the odds that 0bama puts 50,000 troops in Syria is about a million to one against. 0bama is a pro-Muslim and pro-ISIS, and ISIS is a CIA golem run amok, which everyone seems to recognize except the CIA itself. Furthermore, the CIA is headed up by John Brennan, a crypto-Muslim who converted during his time in Saudi Arabia, so it's clear that no one that matters is going to do anything that threatens militant Islamic organizations like ISIS. Kagan can be safely ignored, most likely he is just throwing up a straw man that 0bama can "bravely oppose".

What really bothers me is the plane shot down over the Sinai and how Egypt has pointed a finger at Turkey for supporting ISIS in the Sinai/Egypt region. Now we all know that Russia has good relations with Egypt but there are those would would love to see tension between them. This gets uglier by the hour.

WARREN CITES REPORTS OF HIGH CIVILIAN CASUALTIES FROM RUSSIA

300,000 killed in Syria and 3.5 million killed in Iraq by illegal US/NATO wars

About 3.5 million Iraqis have died since 1990 and over 300,000 Syrians have died since the US ramped up its efforts to unseat Assad as it had done Gaddafi.

More than 1,000,000 Syrians have been injured and more than 4.1 million refugees have been created in Syria.

The greatest terrorism is US illegal wars masquerading as nation building and bringing freedom and democracy.  The only freedom served by the US is freedom from life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

3. the rebels who shot the russian pilots - if you give weapons to someone(s), you have a responsibility IMO to be responsible for those people u are arming. how many fucking times do i have to listen to obama talk about wanting to take our guns away because the mother of a mentally sick kid takes the guns, shoots the mom, and then blasts-up a school. same rules apply here.

Why the U.S. is involved:

It was a U.S. anti-tank missile that downed the Rescue Helicopter , probably given to rebels by Obama just recently.

Why it matters:

Because the Russian Jet was probably outside of Turkish airspace more or less and the Turkish F-16 probably pursued farther than it should of.

And because the pilots were executed after they pulled the chutes.

As for Russia Exaggerating?

Obama gave an entire speech and said Isis was contained hours before they Rampaged through France , so who is exaggerating?

 

What I see:

Obama is arming terrorists, Russia is fighting terrorists, NATO is shooting down Russian jets, while Obama-Rebels are murdering pilots and Downing Rescue Helicopters with Obama-RPGs, while Obama-Muslims-"refugees" are flooding Europe and now America, but its all OK because "Islam is the religion of peace" and Obama is Islamic and is intolerant and racist against Christians (no conflict of interest there)

Seems pretty simple and strait forward to me.

PS: There has never been a more Anti-Christian president in U.S. history IMO. Christians are getting raped and murdered all over the middle east, and Obama is arming terrorists and bringing in muslim "refugees" , what about those pesky Christians? somehow none of those Christians seem to be making it across that border into Europe.... hmm a bit convenient.

Did I miss something?

Because this all just looks like a war against Christianity and the rise of some kind of Obama funded Neo-Ottoman empire to me.

You are correct except that I would mostly replace your use of Obama with US Deep State.

From Clinton to Bush to Obama we Orthodox Christians have seen the West aid and abet the jihadi head choppers and liver eaters that are raping and killing us.

The only country that has consistently tried to help us is Russia. The Syrian army of mostly young Muslim men is fighting and dying to liberate and protect Christian villages.

The America that in 1915 told the Turks that its 97 million Christians wanted the Armenian Genocide to stop is no more. America is post-Christian and has since the collapse of the USSR been supporting jihadis and fascists (and even outright Nazis in Ukraine).

The American Republic is no more. America is now Empire with all the evil that it implies.

As I said before,,, the ameriKan nazi's are involved. You know they always have their AWAC's airborne,,, wouldn't be surprised if they directed the Turk Fighters.

The SU 24 is an attack bomber that is not designed to defend itself against fighters. It was returning to base from a mission, probably had no weapons left to fight even if it wanted to. This is akin to shooting an unarmed person in the back, exactly in line with how the USA acts with a power that may be able to defend itself.

Even if the SU24 violated Turks airspace they were not at war,,, so the warning should have sufficed. Also the Turk aircraft had to get permission from "way up" to shoot down the Russian.

No this was a outright provocation and a declaration of war by Turkey, a proxy of the USA. I just hope President Putin thinks this out before any rash acts the USA and it's western puppets are hoping for.

I do not wish to die because of those traitorous morons in DC, the pentagram and Langley's actions.

The difficulty in understanding the Russian is that we do not take cognizance of the fact that he is not a European, but an Asiatic, and therefore thinks deviously. We can no more understand a Russian than a Chinaman or a Japanese, and from what I have seen of them, I have no particular desire to understand them, except to ascertain how much lead or iron it takes to kill them. In addition to his other Asiatic characteristics, the Russian have no regard for human life and is an all out son of bitch, barbarian, and chronic drunk.

ISIS and Al-Qaeda are part of USSA forces... just one of their several proxy terrorist wings.

Also, anyone able to add one plus one can add the following:

#1:  Every predators in NATO will come to the support of every other predator in NATO regardless of why that NATO member needs support.

#2:  Thus every NATO predator is free to break any and all international laws, any and all agreements, and do absolutely anything at all, no matter how egregious... yet be assured their fellow NATO predators will come back up their every illegal, immoral predatory action.

1 + 1 == predators-gone-wild.

1 + 1 == nuclear war.
