Turkish Shootdown of Russian Jet: What You Need to Know
A U.S. official told Reuters that the Russian jet was inside of Syria when it was shot down:
The United States believes that the Russian jet shot down by Turkey on Tuesday was hit inside Syrian airspace after a brief incursion into Turkish airspace, a U.S. official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Russia denies that the Russian fighter jet – which was bombing ISIS – ever entered Turkish air space, and has put out its own map purporting to prove that claim.
The Russian jet pilots who parachutted free of their burning plane were then purportedly killed by Turkish rebels inside Syria. If true, this is a war crime.
Then – when a Russian helicopter tried to save the pilots – it was shot down by American-backed Syrian rebels – using weapons provided to them by the United States – and a Russian marine was killed.
Russia is deploying a warship off the Syrian coast to “destroy any threats to Russian planes”. Many believe this is the start of World War III.
While the U.S. and NATO tried to blame Russia, German Vice-Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel slammed Turkey:
“This incident shows for the first time that we are to dealing with an actor who is unpredictable according to statements from various parts of the region – that is not Russia, that is Turkey,” Gabriel said, as cited by DPA news agency. He added that Turkey was playing “a complicated role” in the Syrian conflict.
Indeed, NATO-member Turkey is MASSIVELY supporting ISIS, provided chemical weapons used in the jihadi’s massacre of civilians, and has been bombing ISIS’ main on-the-ground enemy – Kurdish soldiers – using its air force. And some of the Turkish people are also unsympathetic to the victims of ISIS terrorism.
Turkey was also instrumental in the creation of ISIS. An internal Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) document produced recently shows, the U.S. knew that the actions of “the West, Gulf countries and Turkey” in Syria might create a terrorist group like ISIS and an Islamic CALIPHATE.
As the former DIA head explained:
It was a willful decision [by Turkey, the West and the Gulf states] to … support an insurgency that had salafists, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood ….

Hopefully you are not alone. There are far too many "my country, right or wrong" types in the world (not just the USA).
That's putting it mildly. I look at it that the USSA supports Turkey who supports ISIS SO
The US killed many of those in Paris. And killed those pilots so John McCain should not have been captured decades ago but rather executed on site as all US soldiers should have been executed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now that is twisting it. My god, what have I said.
I am loyal only to independence of people everywher from those who would violate our most basic rights. Certainly the mass murdering psychopaths who call themselves US government are guilty, and have been since soon after displacing England in this role.
Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness... To SECURE these rights (not grant or limit them in any way), governments are instituted AMONG men (not over them). The instant that a government goes any further than to "secure these rights", it immediately violates them. It becomes an evil parasite, which, as history has always shown, will then want to grow until it consumes its host society. Government at the most local level, if even that, is all that's needed to "secure these rights" and is all that can exist without ultimately violating "these rights".
Yup, but I don't think Paul Revere would get to far these days.
Too bad that at the local level the forced usurpation of rights goes on. I will shortly be giving a brief lecture to my local Board of Selectman as to what their sworn duty is to the people. I don't give a shit what the Massachusetts Atty. General approves for a local bylaw. If the local regs. violate the Constitution, they can shove it up their ass.
My town has made hitch hicking against the law! Excuse me, but where does it allow govenment to outlaw people from asking help from their fellow man if they are exercising their right to liberty and speech?
This video shows that the chopper was a sitting duck on the ground while the TOW missile got set up and blasted it. That's why just one Marine was killed.
