Once upon a time, not too long ago, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu was the prime proponent of a foreign policy dubbed “zero problems with our neighbors” – derided by many in the West as “new-Ottomanism”.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) meets this Tuesday in Brussels not only to craft its response to a Turkish F-4 Phantom jet shot being down by Syria’s anti-aircraft artillery but to seal what sort of “new Ottomanism” is emerging from what actually turned into a “big problem with one of our neighbors” policy.
Davutoglu insists the F-4 was shot in international air space – although conceding it had briefly entered Syrian air space. Contradicting Syria’s official explanation, he said the jet was clearly marked as Turkish; was on a “training flight” to test Turkey’s “national radar system”; and most of all had “no covert mission related to Syria”.
Previously, Syrian Foreign Ministry spokesman Jihad Makdissi had stressed this was an “accident, not an attack”. According to Makdissi, “an unidentified object entered our air space and unfortunately as a result it was brought down. It was understood only later that it was a Turkish plane.”
Davutoglu, in a Turkish media blitzkrieg, as reported by Today’s Zaman, reiterated this was a “solo flight”; the jet was “unarmed”; there was no warning before it was shot down; and as for Syria trying to connect the “not ill-intentioned violation” of its airspace to the shooting of the F-4, that was “irrelevant”.
Violation of another country’s air space, trying to avoid its defenses by flying at low altitude, is as normal to Davutoglu as a sheesh kebab for lunch; “There were many violations of Syrian air space by other countries before. But Syria shot down our unarmed plane.”

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that the, “shooting down of a Turkish fighter jet was brazen and unacceptable “, and completely different to when we politely and delicately kill like 21 innocent women and children in Pakistan with a drone attack because, well ….we …uhh …you know different….whats the word ? Superior ? She also said, “It is yet another reflection of the Syrian authorities’ callous disregard for international norms, human life, and peace and security,”…because as you know we our selves in the US are experts at respecting international law, peace and security when we send drones across international borders, like in Iran, Yemen, Sudan etc…because as you know in those cases we are only ……just like checking the best tourist spots, the traffic, …..but just for fun meantime we will let fly one or two missiles to let the Al Qaida boys know will are still there, and if we kill like 20 civilians in the process its ….well OK, cos like….nobody at the UN gives a shit, and our buddies at the UN……which we have conveniently blackmailed….well they dont even blink….see…….we do it with permission.
She also went on to say..“We will maintain close contact with Turkish officials as they continue to investigate the incident and determine Turkey’s response, including in the Security Council,” but in fact if you really listen to here she said…” We will pressure Turkey to make this an International Act of War so we can convince our allies to bomb the crap out of Syria and bring about the fall of another regime which is an enemy to our best buddy in that region…Israel ”
And finally…“This work is urgent, and we will be consulting in New York with the Security Council, in Brussels with NATO and the EU, and in Geneva with special envoy Kofi Annan on next steps.”…… Hillary corrected here self then….Did I say that ? Sorry…..blushing….”What I really meant to say was, we will be bribing and pressuring the Security Council, in Brussels with NATO and the EU, and in Geneva and manipulating Kofi Annan, as we have always done and telling him what to say, do, and make the next prepatory steps towards our next filthy war and the march towards the NWO.”
There now. Isn’t that nice ?
