Turkey Gov has no balls. It's not normal that a country can nuke another country without a decent response. It's ridiculous. Anyone remember the word of PM Erdogan on friday? Bla, bla, bla bla, and now it's monday, and another attack happened. RIDICULOUS. |

It's the sixth day of retaliation, as Syrian fighting continues to spill across the border. The round from Syria landed 150-200 meters within Turkey's border in the district of Hacipasa, according to a local official. The retaliatory fire comes just two days after Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu warned that the country would respond forcefully to every Syrian shell that lands on Turkish soil. Turkish soldiers were deployed along the border near Akcakale earlier on Monday. [link to rt.com] |

Quoting: Lime Flavoured Redux I don't think this will stop... There is no way Syria is doing this on accident. Eventually shit will hit the fan. Agreed, I doubt it will stop, but I don't think they'll be all out war unless there are more casulaties in Turkey. |
