The Neo-Ottoman Muslim Brotherhood Regime in Turkey is threatening retaliation against the Baathist Regime in Syria. Yesterday the Syrians downed a Turkish F-4 near their coast. Today, Turkish President and Erdogan lackey, Abdullah Gul, said Turkey can’t be silent over this incident. The Turks have been looking for ways to help their Muslim Brotherhood allies in Syria and this could be the pretext.
ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey will take retaliatory steps against Syria for the downing of one of its military jets, President Abdullah Gul said Saturday, even as he suggested that the aircraft may have violated Syrian airspace.
It was not clear if Gul was suggesting military retaliation, increased sanctions against Syria or other possible steps, including demands for an apology, and his aide would not comment on his words. But Faruk Celik, Turkey’s Labor and Social Security Minister, said Turkey would retaliate “either in the diplomatic field or give other types of response.”
“Even if we assume that there was a violation of Syria’s airspace — though the situation is still not clear — the Syrian response cannot be to bring down the plane,” Celik told reporters.
“The incident is unacceptable,” he said. “Turkey cannot endure it in silence.”

The incident further escalated tensions between Syria and NATO-member Turkey. The two neighbors used to be allies before the Syrian revolt began in March 2011, but Turkey has become one of the strongest critics of the Syrian regime’s brutal response to the country’s uprising and is playing host to civilian and military Syrian opposition groups.
There is nothing better than having 2 Islamic regimes be at each others throat. I hope they go to blows and both get bloody. Our enemies are now at each others throats. We should stay out of their way and let them destroy each other.
