Russia just adds a layer of trouble to the conflict. What happens when an American plane is shot down "by mistake" by a Russian missle??
A lot of aholes up there flying different colors. A mistake is bound to happen. I mean WOW:eek:
After a lifetime of seeing various civilian airliners get shot down by russia I am ambivalent about seeing a russian civilian airliner destroyed in flight. Karma.
As far as the F-16/Sukhoi encounter goes I'm not surprised. You have to remember, these guys got their asses kicked in Afghanistan, a country that took us all of 10 days to destroy.
The russians tend to blunder into things thinking the USA is weak only to find themselves being defeated by some proxy using US weaponry. Mr. Obama has allied himself with ISIS + Erdogan against the Assad regime + Russia.
Obama is going to leave a very fucked up world behind him when he leaves office. I'll bet a box of little chocolate donuts he ends up being UN secretary general. When he and Hollande chatted yesterday I wonder if Hollande confronted Obama about basically giving cover to the Paris terrorists.
