The N-word in the Woodpile

Reader comment on item: Why Erdoğan Decided to Shoot down a Russian Plane

Submitted by Andrew T. Halmay (Canada), Dec 12, 2015 at 09:49

I have another theory. Erdogan, like Obama, is a coward and sneak. He might sit up all night trying to figure out some sort of scam but he doesn't have the balls for confrontation. When Israel boarded his blockade running ship and killed a few of his henchmen he didn't really respond. It was his buddy, Obama, who bullied idiot Netanyahu to issue an apology (which Netanyahu should never had done - I would have said to Obama, "You, Barry, are the great apologist, you apologize on my behalf.)

Now no one in the world may be as upset by Putin's sudden appearance in the ME and bombing the very rebels Obama has been arming. This is why my gut tells me that it was Obama who encouraged Erdogan to shoot down the plane and immediaely go running to NATO in the hope of initiating some conflict between NATO and Russia. Whenever something nasty takes place in the world, it is sound to first examine it from the standpoint of some possible Obama trickery.
