    What was the point of shooting the pilots? It is just escalating a provocative act! Turkey could have paraded them around and said, "Look what we found! I told you so!" Killing them just p$#@es the Russians off.

    Well, obviously I think they should not have killed them. But isn't this just... kinda what military forces do?

    I've been reading that it was one of the Syrian rebel groups. What is your source?

    Isn't Turkey part of NATO? Aren't there some rules against that kind of stuff?
    Oh, I forgot........we're talking about people who don't give a crap about rules.
    I need to read up more about this. I thought Turkey was working with the other countries in bombing ISIS.
