President Vladimir Putin has accused Turkey of funding ISIS, and using its military to protect the terrorist organisation, after a Russian fighter jet was shot down near the Syrian border on Tuesday morning. The two-pilot Sukhoi Su-24 jet was shot down by F-16 fighter planes just after 9am this morning, after it violated Turkish airspace and ignored nearly a dozen warnings by the military, Ankara officials said.

"Putin warns Turkey there will be "serious consequences" for "stabbing Russia in the back" by shooting down one of its jets… as video emerges of rebels chanting "Allahu Akbar" over the body of dead pilot"
> rebels chanting “Allahu Akbar” over the body of dead pilot”
That’s gotta look doubleplusbad for Turkey and the towelhead in the White Hut.
Putin won’t advertise when, where or who either.
Some of the more popular videos coming out of Youtube is Russians attacking the Daesh. I’ve never seen Hinds dropping bombs before, unless its some Stallone movie.
NATO should have been disbanded in 1992.
Now our “tripwire” includes such regimes as Turkey and Albania. Its security theater and a very dangerous arrangement.
Question is who is bankrolling. Putin was in Teheran the past two day, claiming part of that $150 billion in Iranian money, selling anti aircraft missles and uranium (of all things).
Oh please. Putin will file diplomatic grievances among other non military actions, but there is not a chance Putin/Russia uses armed forces against Turkey.
Russia got what was coming to it. There have already been complaints lodged by NATO/Turkey about Russia warplanes overflying Turkish airspace. Russia thought it could get away with continuing these actions, they thought wrong.
Just great.
Breaking War Escalation| Vladimir Putin Closed Turkish Embassy
An official Russian News stated after the warplane crash in Syrian border with Turkey, Vladimir Putin has convened Turkish ambassador Mr. Umit Yardim announcing that Turkish embassy should be closed as from now and they have 24h to leave Russia.
The Nazis showed more respect to dead enemies than these Muzzies do.
Russian may create a no-fly zone over the entirety of Syria.
Russia is the only force that has been asked in by the gov of Syria.
Look for more S-400 or better systems to be lifted in by Antonov-225 cargo planes. Some will be placed near the Turkish border.
Shades of WW1.... a web of dangerous alliances.
Turkey must have lost its collective mind.
Don’t f*** around with Putin. Unlike Obama, he actually means business.
BINGO! We have a WINNER!
Hmmm, doubt Turkey gave this order on their own..something stinks & it’s coming from the White Hut.
They got away Scott free after stabbing us in the back at the beginning of the Gulf War with the last minute denial of access for our troops.
I said at the time, and still maintain that, we should have obliterated Iraq, divided the country along ethnic lines, and rewarded Turkey’s treachery with an newly minted Kurdistan on its border.
Just thought of another effect that would have had... The ME is made up of countries where warring tribes were arbitrarily crammed together, anyone who allows the tribes to have self rule would be welcomed by any ethnic group who viewed them as a path to freedom.
Perhaps Putin will fracture Syria along ethnic lines?
Same here in regards to Iraq. Iraq even during the time of Papa Bush was pretty much on its way out, since it was an artifical created country. If it was you have posted been divided up, according to Kurdish, Christian, Sunni, and Shia, there would be no ISIS.
Especially after killing the pilot. I bet they’ll kill the surviving member most likely in a horrific manner.
Shooting down a Russian jet ,a little something Obama’s people and Turkey’s President cooked up at the G20 meeting to try to stop Putin bombing their friends
In Turkey it's illegal to admit there was an Armenian Genocide.
I don't believe a damn thing coming out of a country that makes it illegal to state a historical fact.
