LOL, I heard Russia is complaining about this that they took down a plane for inspection.

I bet Turkey would not make such a move without knowing it has illegal cargo on the deck. It is illegal to transport arms in civilian plane above Turkish airspace. But they love to turn it around. When you corner a ***** that is how it will act.
