He said the aircraft was inside Syrian airspace - 4km from the Turkish border - when it was hit, news agencies report.
 
Turks are over reactive and easy to read. WE know they will go into a rage and start acting silly so we can plan for it.

Its like playing with a cat with a laser pointer. We can make them do exactly what we want.

Now we close down Syria airspace and give the Kurds ample room to expand.

Easy.
Mate you repeating this non-sense argument over and over again to come back from the humiliation you just received.

Close Syrian airspace or close the airspace of Zimbabwe...what's it up to us ? Turkish planes are not operating in Syrian airspace.

If you try to close the Syrian airspace, you are going to have problem with US not Turkey.

I'm telling you for the hundred time, we are not using Syrian airspace, We didn't even trespassed it for a second since 2012.
 
Oil prices rise amid heightened tensions in Middle East

Oil prices have risen following news that Turkey shot down a Russian warplane near the Syria-Turkey border and a weaker US dollar provided incentive for investors to buy more oil.

"News of a military jet crashing in Syria is a reminder that there is still substantial risk in the Middle East," Bjarne Schieldrop, the Olso-based chief commodities analyst at SEB bank told Reuters news agency.
 
It is time to put an actual Russian red star just below our f-16 cockpit first time in NATO ! :D

Shooting down a ground attack jet with no proper air warfare capability from behind and during peace time is nothing to brag about, it would be something significant if you could have shot down a Su-30 in an air warfare or something like that. ;)

You can use a 10 year old kid in an F-16 to lock on a Su-24 and shoot, well done, mission accomplished.
 
Pakistan is not a super military power but still it can be useful to break countries just like in old days in case of USSR.

I think Pakistanis need to get over their misgivings, that they broke up any country much less the Soviet union.

It was the way Soviet handled their economics that broke their country.

It was CIA which funded and supplied the weapons, Afghan Jihadis who fought against Soviet forces. Pakistanis were just the middlemen used by American to transfer Israeli (captured by Israelis in their war against Arabs) and American weapons to Afghans.
 
Spanish MP Jose Manuel Garcia Margallo Breaking NEWS

" It is acceptable that Turkey downed Russian Jet after airspace violations and 10 warnings monitored from allied pilots in the area. Russia has to join anti ISIL alliance and not fight the anti ESAD alliance "!
 
RIP to the Russian martyrs. God is with you Russia in bombing the terrorists and their rebel buddies.
 
Such incidents will directly change the power projection of Turkish industry... The new targets should be;

-Nuclear Tech is a must for Turkey.
-Long range land attack cruise missiles ! (Already have an ongoing project with a range of 1000km range but The schedule should be accelerated)
-Ballistic Missiles !
-Domestic Low-Medium and Long range SAM missiles (Already have but The schedule should be accelerated )

Bro he thinks thats their revenge, even thought they are the ones violating our airspace despite warnings over months or even years.
Leave them their ''revenge'' its a feel good post of him like all the other Russia fanboys you see here, they thought none can touch Russia, its a big hurt for their their ego that no US or UK downed a Russian plane but ''just'' Turkey.

Thats the only reason why some here are acting like racist angry pubescent teenies.
 
Turkey of today reminds me of Pakistan of 80's:
-Conflicts in neighbouring countries-Check
-Directly or in directly supporting insurgents in that country-Check
-Russian intervention-Check
-Downing of Russian jets-Check
-Being frontline state in a US led coalition-Check
-Islamic radicalisation creeping into society-Check
-Millions of refugees flooding in-Check

Expecting a different fate then that of Pakistan will be like living in fools paradise.
