#5 IIUC, Mama Russia's S-400 + follow-on repor has Surface-to-Surface [SSM] strike capabilities, not just Air, Aerospace, or BMD???

SYRIA = NORTH KOREA VEE CHINA [Iran] - I suspect the Hezzies Hizzies Huzzies Hassies Hibbies are doing what the PLA will do soon, i.e. helping to "motivate/inspire" Syria = NOKOR to stay loyal.

--------------

ION NOT-MISS-TURKEY ...

* WAFF > PUTIN HAS DIRECTLY THREATENED ERDOGAN?, i.e. allegations Putin has warned Erdogan that any Turkish attack or crossover into Syria will be deemed by Moscow as an attack agz Russia???

* SAME > TURKISH CIVIL WAR BREWING IN THE SOUTH, ALAWITES SEEN AS TRAITORS. Pro-Assad/Alawite Turks of Arab origin, versus incoming anti-Assad, pro-Rebel Sunni Syrian refugees.

* SAME > SE TURKEY UNDER PKK CONTROL | MILITARY DELIVERIES [Troops, Cargo-Equipment] ORDERED TO BE LAUNCHED BY AIR FOR SECURITY REASONS, by the Turkish General Staff due to pervasive Kurd attacks.

Every Man or MilThingy goes by Armed Helicopter or fixed-wing Cargo Plane, even iff just for short or very short distances.

* SAME > IRAQ STARTS TO PUNISH TURKEY FOR HER BAD BEHAVIOR | IRAQ BLOCKS 128 TURKISH BUSES HEADED FOR MECCA [Saudi Arabia = Haj].

* WAFF > TURKEY BECOMING EUROPE'S THIRD [largest] ECONOMY [ + World's 10th]: TURKISH FINMIN. Turkey's Finance Minister Mehmet Simsek.

Turkey's econmy performing better that the US or Europe/EUZ.

* TOPIX > EXPERT: LARGE-SCALE MILITARY ACTION AGZ SYRIA WILL TURN INTO SECOND VIETNAM, espec for Ankara = Turkey.

* SAME > WHERE TURKEY IS ALREADY AT WAR [Troops in combat, Syria bombardment], ARE KURDISH MILITANTS [PKK] DOING SYRIA'S BIDDING?
