    Here it comes....at some point Turkey and KSA who view themselves as the "defenders of the faith" and in the case of Turkey they still view the region from an Ottoman view.....as Russia has not stopped their killing and starving of Sunni's then at some point Turkey and KSA will step in...

    The interesting point is Putin has spoken a number of times about "engaging NATO"...is he attempting to provoke a NATO confrontation via Turkey as Obama has implied the US will not support Turkey under Article 5 if they engage into Syria....

    BREAKING: ‘Turkish Military authorizes all fighter pilots to fire without a warning’

    Remember he has three core geo political goals in his non linear war.....

    1. damage and discredit the EU
    2. damage and discredit NATO
    3. disconnect the US fully from Europe and the ME.....in this case Obama is providing great secondary support to Putin

    AND naturally the Russian well trained automatic response to any accusation......"it ain't us..."

    NOTE that the Russian MoD seems to have forgotten that NATO has AWACS and round radar watching every move the MoD makes.....
