The facts on the table
What kind of plane was this one, man? Has there been such an order in history where one plane was given and a country was taken?
I am talking about Russia. I'm talking about the recent conversations in Ankara.
Let us see the greater picture without being squeezed in crises.
Let us put the facts we have encountered in the past few months on the table, in chronological order:
- A Russian plane was shot down. In return, Russia took control of the airspace of a huge country such as Syria.
- This was not enough. It made the Syrian ports in the Mediterranean Sea its military bases.
- This was not enough either. It deployed long-range missiles. At normal times, if it placed these missiles in the Mediterranean, all hell would have broken loose.
- This was still not enough, so it came all the way to Syria's Qamishli on the Turkish border. It is building an airport there.
- This was again not enough. It is now supporting the Democratic Union Party (PYD) to form an autonomous Kurdish state loyal to itself to the south of Turkey.
- And, as this was not enough, it is pushing out the Turkmens in the region, acting together with the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
What kind of a plane was this one, man?
Where is NATO?
Russia is experimenting with all kinds of tricks to provoke Turkey. It came as close as Qamishli to carve out Turkey's southeast and it is openly supporting the PYD. It is supporting the outlawed Kurdistan Worker's Party (PKK) over the PYD, while the former is heinously staging attacks in the districts of Sur and in Cizre in Turkey's southeast.
Russia and Syria are carrying out "terrorist attacks" against Turkey, which is a NATO...
