On November 24, 2015 a Russian Su-24 fighter was shot down by Turkish forces for allegedly violating Turkish airspace, near the Syrian border. The aircraft crashed on Syrian land. The two pilots ejected and were shot at in the air while using their parachutes by the Syrian Turkmen Brigades, whose commander Alpaslan Celik told Reuters "Both of the pilots were retrieved dead. Our comrades opened fire into the air and they died in the air."

no honor at all.

Attacking persons parachuting from an aircraft in distress is a war crime under Protocol I in addition to the 1949 Geneva Conventions.

Thank you, also.

I wonder what repercussions, if any, they will suffer.

Foreign-policy-wise Obama is the biggest loser ever. Can he do anything right? Defending the downing of the Russian plane (and therefore the murder of the pilot) and saying Turkey has to defend its airspace... How fkn stupid is that?!

Short answer, no. He is painfully embarrassing as our "commander and chief"

Pardon the pun, but it was like shooting a gnat with a bazooka. One damn plane is NOT a threat. It's not like he sent in a whole attack squadron. Then, to execute the soldiers as they were parachuting down was a disgrace. Those dumb ass towel headed goatfuckers

Stupid is as stupid does.

Sheik Hussein Obama bin Whitehouse is not making any mistakes.

It's just that his agenda is other than the well being of the US in particular and The West in general.

They are so outrageously wasteful with the ammo, you can tell that someone else is paying for it.

And they never seem to have any shortage of arms or ammunition.

Which brings up a question...

Saudi Arabia is a rich nation.

Question answered.

Turkey flies over Greek borders all the time. Ironic that they would get pissed over it enough to shoot it down. It's a Russian plane too... they done goofed now.
