Erdogan: geen excuus, maar hij vindt het wel jammer, dat Turkije een Russische jager neerschoot………

Nadat de kalief van Ankara, de Turkse dictator Erdogan, een grote bek had over de Russen en de bombardementen die dit land uitvoert in Syrië, stelde deze ploert afgelopen zaterdag, dat het beter was geweest als Turkije de Russische straaljager niet had neergeschoten…….. Een ‘iets andere’ taal, dan zijn eerdere leugens, maar bepaald geen excuus….

Uiteraard heeft Erdogan op z’n sodemieter gehad van de VS, immers het vluchtplan van de twee Russische straaljagers was bekend bij de VS en haar (NAVO) partner Turkije, waarmee het hele leugenverhaal van Erdogan in het water viel. Het verhaal dat de Russische jager(s) zich 17 seconden in Turks luchtruim bevonden….. Eerst was het 5 minuten en Turkije sprak van één straaljager, terwijl dat er toch echt twee waren….. In die tijd zou Turkije de piloten minstens 10 keer hebben gewaarschuwd (ha! ha! ha! probeert u dat maar eens in 17 seconden)…….. Erdogan deed afgelopen donderdag nog een poging het verhaal te draaien, door te stellen, dat de Turken niet wisten, dat het om een Russische jager ging, maar om een Syrisch toestel, gezien de voorkennis bij de Turken, aangeleverd door de VS, was dat alweer je reinste flauwekul……..

Het kan nog gekker mensen: om het gebied te bereiken, waar de Russische straaljager werd neergehaald, moesten twee F16’s van Turkije maar liefst rond de 46 minuten vliegen vanaf hun luchtmachtbasis nabij Diyarbakir en nogmaals uiteraard was het vluchtplan van de Russen bekend zowel op die basis als in Ankara. De F16’s van Turkije vlogen trouwens in Syrisch luchtruim……… Met andere woorden: die F16’s werden doelbewust op de Russische jagers afgestuurd, al ver voor de Turkse radar ze in Syrisch luchtruim kon zien…….

Het is overigens niet uitgesloten, dat de Turkse F16’s een poging ondernamen, de Russische straaljagers naar Turks grondgebied te lokken……

Hier een verslag van de gebeurtenissen, zoals die werd gepubliceerd op Information Clearing House (onderaan dat artikel, een link naar een Nederlandse vertaling, al duurt het laden wel een paar minuten):

Turkish F-16 Attacked Russian Su-24 Within Syria Airspace – commander

By RT

November 28, 2015 “Information Clearing House” – “RT” – A Turkish fighter jet launched a missile at a Russian bomber on Tuesday well ahead of the Su-24 approaching the Turkish border, the chief of Russia’s Air Force said. The bomber remained on Turkish radars for 34 minutes and never received any warnings.

The attack on the Russian Su-24 bomber was intentional and had been planned in advance, Viktor Bondarev, the chief of Russia’s Air Force, announced Friday, calling the incident an“unprecedented backstab.”
The commander shared with the media previously unknown details of what happened on Tuesday.


On November 24, a pair of Russian Sukhoi Su-24 tactical bombers took off from Khmeimim airbase in Latakia at 06:15 GMT, with an assignment to carry out airstrikes in the vicinity of the settlements of Kepir, Mortlu and Zahia, all in the north of Syria. Each bomber was carrying four OFAB-250 high-explosive fragmentation bombs.


Ten minutes later, the bombers entered the range of Turkish radars and took positions in the target area, patrolling airspace at predetermined heights of 5,800 meters and 5,650 meters respectively.


Both aircraft remained in the area for 34 minutes. During this time there was no contact between the crews of the Russian bombers and the Turkish military authorities or warplanes.


Some 20 minutes after arriving at the designated area, the crews received the coordinates of groups of terrorists in the region. After making a first run, the bombers performed a maneuver and then delivered a second strike.


Immediately after that, the bomber crewed by Lieutenant-Colonel Oleg Peshkov and Captain Konstantin Murakhtin was attacked by a Turkish F-16 fighter jet operating from the Diyarbakır airfield in Turkey.


To attack the Russian bomber with a close-range air-to-air missile, the Turkish fighter jet had to enter Syrian airspace, where it remained for about 40 seconds. Having launched its missile from a distance of 5-7 kilometers, the F-16 immediately turned towards the Turkish border, simultaneously dropping its altitude sharply, thus disappearing from the range of Russian radars at the Khmeimim airbase.


The Turkish fighter moved two kilometers into Syrian airspace while the Russian bomber at no stage violated Turkish airspace, Bondarev stressed.


The crew of the second Su-24M had a clear view of the moment the missile was fired from the Turkish F-16, and reported this to base.


Commander Bondarev noted that a pair of Turkish F-16Cs had been in the area close to the attack zone for more than an hour prior to the attack, which explains their presence in the area. The time needed to get the aircraft ready at the Diyarbakır airfield and travel to the attack zone is an estimated 46 minutes.


One of Turkish F-16Cs stopped its maneuvers and began to approach the Su-24M bomber about 100 seconds before the Russian aircraft came closest to the Turkish border, which also confirms the attack was pre-planned, Commander Bondarev stressed.


The chief of Russia’s Air Force also called attention to the readiness of the Turkish media, which released a professionally-made video of the incident recorded from an area controlled by extremists a mere 1.5 hours after the Su-24 was downed.


Commander Bondarev also mentioned the memorandum of understanding regarding the campaign in Syria, signed by Moscow and Washington on October 26. In accordance with this agreement, the Russian side informed its American counterparts about the mission of the two bombers in the north of Syria on November 24, including the zones and heights of operation.


Taking this into account, the Turkish authorities’ statement on not knowing which aircraft were operating in the area raises eyebrows, Bondarev said.


The Turkish military not only violated all international laws on protecting national borders, but never delivered an apology for the incident or offered any help in the search and rescue operation for the Su-24 crew.


The Su-24’s pilot, Lieutenant-Colonel Oleg Peshkov, was shot dead by militants while parachuting to the ground, having ejected from the stricken aircraft. His partner, navigator Captain Konstantin Murakhtin, survived being shot at while parachuting and managed to stay alive on the ground in an area full of terrorists.


The rescue operation took several hours and eventually recovered Murakhtin, although one Russian Marine in the team was killed when the rescue helicopter was destroyed by a US-made tank missile launched by the extremists – an incident they filmed and published online.


Commander Bondarev specifically stressed that the Russian pilot who survived the attack was actively looked for not only by the jihadists, but also by a number of unidentified and technically well-equipped groups.


After Captain Murakhtin was rescued, the Russian Air Force delivered “more than massive, devastating” airstrikes against the militants in the region where the operation had been taking place, Bondarev reported.

U zult begrijpen, dat we in het westen, door de reguliere media totaal worden voorgelogen over deze zaak, zoals gistermorgen op Radio1 (OVT) en in Buitenhof, in beide gevallen door de anti-Rusland propagandist Hubert Smeets, die daar ook nog eens de kans kreeg z’n nieuwste anti-Russische schrijfsel te promoten…….. Later meer over het optreden van Smeets.

Zoals hier eerder gesteld: het is maar goed, dat het niet Syrië was, die een VS straaljager neerhaalde, de VS had heel wat agressiever gereageerd (en dat is nog voorzichtig uitgedrukt), dan die ‘onbetrouwbare Russen….’
