| 2015-10-06 |
| [CBS] BRUSSELS - Turkey's military said Tuesday more of its jets patrolling the border with Syria were placed in a radar lock by Russian planes and surface-to-air missile systems, casting further doubt on Moscow's behavior and intentions in the Syria crisis. Eight Turkish F-16 jet patrolling the Turkish-Syrian border were harassed by a MIG-29 plane as well as surface-to-air missile systems based in Syria in two separate incidents on Monday. It was the second successive harassment of Turkish planes reported by Turkey. The MIG-29 locked radar on the planes for 4 minutes and 30 seconds, while the missile systems threatened the planes for 4 minutes and 15 seconds, the military said. Turkey reported Monday that two Turkish jets were harassed by a MIG-29 on Sunday. Vlad probes Mooslim NATO underbelly. |

| #20 If Russia wanted to give Turkey the jitters, from where could they supply arms to the Kurds, and could they do so without also giving Iran the jitters (or if they wanted to give Iran the jitters to keep them in-line from bringing Israel into the mix)? |

| #13 If the Turks were to shoot down a couple of RU fighters and Vlad were forced to turn Adana to cinders, with stronger message to follow, then what? The music stops, everyone huddles, no one does anything. Vlad smiles. |

| #12 Erdogon is the illegitimate metroturban of the boy-lover Mahmet I. And if everyone just took a time out for a minute to attack Turkey, only ISJV and Obama would come to their aid. Thing is Lil' Berdy is participating in an invasion of NATO. He has also been trying to drag NATO into this squared circle ever since sent his planes out to be shot down by Team Assad. |

| #5 Erdrogan is the cause of all this "migration" horseshit. He's actively on the Islamist side, folks. |

| #3 Boot Turkey out of NATO or disband NATO. It's just not worth the mental contortions trying to keep something so alien in an organisation. |

| #1 A couple HARMs back at the SAMs would be an appropriate response I think. |
