BREAKING: Turkey Forces Down another Syrian-Bound Plane. Red-Cross Can't Cope with Syria

Turkey raised publicly for the first time on Wednesday the idea of stationing Patriot missile batteries along its southern border with Syria. The move would effectively create a no-fly zone that could help safeguard refugees and give rebel fighters a portion of Syrian territory without fear of crippling airstrikes by Syrian forces.

"The humanitarian situation is getting worse despite the scope of the operation increasing," said Peter Maurer, president of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

Meanwhile, President Assad has told Russian TV that he will not leave Syria as suggested by the UK prime minister.

Thanks for another pin!

look for things to get hot quickly now that the election is over.

also, a lot of action on the syria-israel border. more shells hit today. israel wont sit by for long.

imo, isaiah 17 WILL happen before the end of the year.

whether its a fsa false flag attack using wmd's or assad himself launches chemical weapons on israel as nato intervenes in syria....it's coming. and damascus and assad's mountain command center will be no more.

Assad to RT: 'I'm not Western puppet - I have to live and die in Syria'
[link to rt.com]

its good to see that turkey has the guts to do this.
i mean turkey does risk a lot and i hope that NATO will not turn its back to them.

has anyone ever thougt about what was going to happen if assad was NOT toppled?
if NATO had to give it up?

turkey would have a neighbor or mabe even two(regaridng iran) which is/are really pissed at it then.

i hope for turkey that NATO wont let em down if that happens.
there has to be concrete plans to involve/include turkey into our system if things go wrong.

however i doubt that NATO has such plans.
even if turkey is a moderate but still an islamic tending nation the problem will be that with 100 million muslims for example joining the EU(which would me the most realistic solution to me)
there will be a religious shift of tremendous propoortion.
not everyone wants this even if its not spoken out loud.

i foresee a disaster if NATO does not manage to get rid of assad and russia btw will not be spared then.
regarding syria, putin is a fool!
he does not see the long term consequences.

Syrian rebels could be armed by the UK in a fresh push to oust President Bashar Assad and end the bloodshed after David Cameron ordered officials to re-examine all options.

A Downing Street official said the Prime Minister wanted to put previously rejected measures "back on the table" amid frustration at the failure to halt the 20-month conflict.

Mr Cameron had vowed to redouble his efforts after visiting a refugee camp in Jordan and hearing "horrendous" stories of some of those who have fled the violence.

If Assad was not toppled, that would be a huge relief for the region, are you saying that it would be a good thing if he does get overthrown? You are the one, who is obviously oblivious to the actual consequences that would come from such an event.

The only disaster i see, is the one currently set before our very eyes, with outside players supporting, logistically and financially, a large number of groups, with different agendas, including foreign Jihadists and death squads designated specifically by NATO to destabilize and subvert.

Let me guess, you're a Der Spiegel reader, aren't you...

Well, I think we can all agree the foretold hatred against Israel has certainly come full circle. Waiting for the rest.

Hell Red-Cross can't even cope with Sandy, how do you think they're faring in a real war-zone.

i can not tell you if its a good thing or a bad thing if he is overhrown.
no one knows because we can not yet predict or see the future.
my post was pointed at turkey.
what i meant is that turkey currently makes an enemy to assad and he will not forget this.
if he stays turkey will pay and NATO has responsibility.

Good read: “Syrian army soldiers...desperate for money are selling their machine guns for 85,000 Syrian pounds”

It's funny because Turkey is NATO's and the US's best ally, and we spit on them all the time. And for the most part, Turkey doesn't see itself aligned with the middle east, they never have.

Iraqi Minister: Riyadh Sends Arms to al-Qaeda Forces in Syria through Turkey
[link to english.farsnews.com]


"The Saudis are sending arms to al-Qaeda elements in Syria through Turkey," al-Ameri said.

His remarks came while media reports disclosed in September that a huge arms cargo has been shipped to Turkey to be delivered to terrorists and armed groups in Syria.

"A Libyan ship carrying the largest consignment of weapons for Syria…has docked in Turkey," said The Times in an article published mid September. Quoting a member of the 'Free Syrian Army' (FSA), who called himself Abu Mohammad, the article said the over-400-ton cargo included "SAM-7 surface-to-air anti-aircraft missiles and rocket-propelled grenades."

Abu Mohammad, who told The Times that he "helped to move the shipment from warehouses to the border", said "this is the largest single delivery of assistance" the gunmen have so far received.
