Turkey should have been kicked out of NATO when they refused us flyover rights in our little tussle with Iraq a few years back.
They left us on our own to deal with it.
This is their bear; I say let them wrestle with it alone too.

If they want a war, Obama’s kids should be the first to go.
Not mine.

Agree they should have been dumped from NATO. Moreover, I think now more than ever there is a serious question about whether you can form alliances with Muslim nations when it’s likely you’ll have to fight other Muslims.

Amen. Isn't is convenient for the Turks to suddenly "remember" they are member of NATO when it suits their own selfish interests.

Some "ally."

High ranking Turkish politicos are involved with ISIS oil smuggling. This shootdown was revenge for the bombing of 1000 oil tankers the other day. Plenty of legit sources are saying this.

Well, France did the same thing when Reagan retaliated against Libya back in the ‘80s.
