Syrian Forces Shoot Down Turkish Jet - WSJ.com

Apparently the Turkish Jet was flying over Syrian waters...

So what's with all the complaints?

So what's with all the complaints?

Because :

Syrian Military should use Intercept protocol.Call for Intention before fire missiles.It's a well know fact.You cant just shoot a plane even it is your territory.

 

[Thomas]

Because all were accidents and I doubt you ever got your hands on SAS on a small boat in waters that is not defined clearly on which side of the border. They don't let women in SAS. RQ 170 accidentally flying into Iran not enough to cause a ruckus because we know it was an accident and not intentional by Iran to steal it.

Oh and what is this other plane you hit you are referring to?

The RQ-170 was most likely brought down by GPS spoofing. It was a known flaw that lockheed was warned about but did nothing to correct. I'm sure heads rolled and the problem is being corrected now. Obama did show how little backbone he has though when they could see the aircraft in large pieces yet didn't bomb it.

LMAOOO Turkey got f*****. The plane crashed in Syrian territory yet they claiming there was no border violation, what a joke. This is what you get for harbouring and supplying weapons to terrorists.



can't fight your own wars buddy? need us to save your *** after provoking a war?

whoa, idune Bhai, didn't expect to see this coming from you.

Actually mid-east now is going through creative chaos. Do you know internal situation in Syria? Alawi's are barely Muslim, Iranian Shia's have tried to bring them into twelver shia from their deviant "Nusayri" ways. They used to be serf's under Ottoman, essentially village farm labor. They got chance under the French and became top dawg's by monopolizing the military and security forces and then Hafez Assad got power in a coup. They have been oppressing the 80% Sunni majority for decades.

The Alawi dominated Assad regime will be ousted, its just a matter of time. I am surprised to see you are taking their side. Both Russia and China made a strategic blunder in my opinion.

Arab lands in Asia will get consolidated under US/West alliance while Turkey and KSA will be the main two powers managing this region, according to my projection.

Just my personal view.

We should not fall for shia sunni divide as westerns had been exploiting that for long. Political change need to happen in Syria but NATO, Turkey and house of Saud has hijacked native Syrian movement of change to "regime change" terror. Same way these western thugs have to Libya. One can not support such outright terrorism by NATO, Turkey and house of Saud.

Russia and and China has taken correct strategic steps but they are not backing up their stand with reenforced action. If both China and Russia act to hold on their stand, this will be decisive front for strategic tilt.

The plane was 1 km inside Syrian territory, and there were no warnings nor escorts from Syrian side. Alot of countries violates their neighbors territories but when they are warned they back up, it's unusual to shoot down a plane without a warning. That's an act of war.

Turkey should rain bombs on Assad's palace during this night as an answer to this.

Buddy, you don't do these kind of things when the country is at war. Syria is at war with the terrorist rebels inside its territory and it's being bullied by NATO and their dogs in the ME (GCC).

They're on their toes. Of course they're going to engage and shoot down anything that goes in their territory.

I'm shocked that you expect anything but.

If this were peace time it would be a different situation but Syria is engulfed in a foreign backed civil war and any antagonism either land, air, sea, should be met with force. The Turkish fighter jet was flying over Syrian waters that means within 12 nautical miles from shore. Turkish fighter jets should have never even been that close, they entered a war zone and now suffer the consequences. There is nothing innocent about this, the fighter jet was too close for comfort, and it triggered a Syrian response.

Syria is one Arab country that has a steel spine.

I wouldn't put it that way, but yes, I'm sure the gunners are very nervous. As it was AAA, they are probably shocked they hit it (there is always the chance of the golden BB). Anyways, despite the face the Syrians are putting on it, I'm sure they realise this did them no good. As I said, nervous gunners in a nervous country firing a weapon that seldom has effect) However, in the current climate it was darn stupid, and yes, gives the powers that want a quick resolution a convenient excuse (the regime is rotten to the core, any Army that massacres its own is sad, but I was hoping the Syrians would resolve it themselves). I promise you, if Turkey does have to answer this, they won't be alone though.

I checked the newspapers and all of them quoted "all necessary steps will be executed" which means nothing will happen. We will just demand an apology and compensation. That is it.

Although I do not like the methods of the Israeli government, sometimes I say I wish we could be like them when it is necessary.

If the pilots were killed in this incident it would have been worse.

You know what's rotten? Killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqis to remove Saddam after helping Saddam for decades kill his own people and IRanians. Now that's rotten. And it's just one example.

So save me the crocodile tears and kindly move out of the way. No time for your "america fuk ya" bs.

It's nobodies business but the Syrians. If the rebels cared about human life, they wouldn't fight the regime with bullets and have people die in the middle. The fact of the matter is that these arab countries are all tribal and secterian societies who live by the sword. Their societites are built in a way that such conflicts are simply a reality (Iraq, Libya, yemen, syria, Bahrain...). It's up to them to change their way of life. Supporting one side with weapons to kill the other is the most idiotic solution to any conflict, be it with words or with arms and intel. These societies need to learn to grow up and leave their tribalist and secterian ways of life in the sixth century.

When USA gets smacked in the face and they have no good response, they call it "stupid."

Just like Pakistan cutting off NATO supply routes to Afghanistan -- called "stupid"

Just like China crushing Philippines in South China Sea -- called "stupid"

 

[Hello_10]

Then NATO will face a crushing Russian attack just like Georgia did. Good thing the Bulava just entered service.

we have a news from Turkey as below. its now clear that the way they are calling for "response", if Syria may shoot down just one more Turkish jet, then they will get quiet . i think, the time Syria will have shot down just one more Turkish jet, then it will be only US's foreign ministry who will make statement

Syria said Friday it shot down a Turkish military plane that entered Syrian air space, and Turkey vowed to “determinedly take necessary steps” in response.

As I said, I hoped they would sort it out themselves. But please tell me, how is shooting down a Turkish aircraft going to help keep it internal? (and don't say it was NATO or rebels that shot it down, the Syrian Government admits as much)

A Syrian official reaction:



Syrian Arab news agency - SANA - Syria : Syria news ::

That does not make any sense. So according to them plane was coming at very low altitude from west (ie it was flying towards the shore), Syrians shot it down when it was 1 km away from land, but it crashed 10 km from shore.

They obviously missed physics lessons at school.

When Greeks as a NATO state that has much more powerfull army than current Syria, fired a missile and shot our aircraft down on Aegean, The times' government immediately introduced a counter-reaction and sent tens of aircrat towards Athens until Turkish aircrafts shot Greek fighter/fighters down in the deep of Aegean. It was same in Kardak issue.

Today, It is backward Syria shoting down our fighter but We are talking about compensations and apologises...

Sorry but Even If you have World biggest and most capable army/technology in your hands, Without a determined and courage management, It always sucks so bad. With this way, Such a determined and proud 70 million nation falled into so Loser and desperate position thanks to some idiots who likes barking without taking any action...
