Turkey’s decision to shoot down the Russian warplane they claimed was flying in their airspace earlier this week is already reaping negative judgement from the international community. Many world leaders are lashing out against Turkey, calling their hasty decision foolish, and they’re somewhat right to think so.
Not only is there a lack of proof that the Russian warplane was flying in Turkish airspace, even if they were, there’s no reason to engage in conflict with an aircraft that has no hostile intentions towards you. Because of this avoidable incident, the world is now leaning on the brink of a global conflict.
In the wake of it all Iraqi Vice President Nuri al-Maliki accused Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan of potentially starting another world war. In his statement, he reminded Erdogan that Turkey’s own planes violate Iraqi and Syrian airspace every day. Of course the United States is standing with Turkey due to President Obama’s inability to leave Assad alone.

So now we are blaming Turkey for all this? I thought we were blaming climate change…
and then 20000 years of nuclear death clouds going across Europe and Asia..
Jive Turkey..
Uhh…yea…Not good.
Congress do your job..
Our nation is run by either a demon or a fool. We are on the brink of Worldwide Thermonuclear War….
Putin has formally and to be honest, politely told us by reporters to do something about out government which is out of control.
WE have turned to the wrong side. Internationally.
Russia is an enemy in the sense that they are communists but they have been allies in WORSE evils…. such as the$#%&!@*s.
They played us both sides for several years and not until$#%&!@*invaded Russia did they stick with being our Allies.
Not surprising
That’s why we should just let them alone. If we did they would all just kill each other. Problem Solved!
why are we the criminals?
