"The BBC has reported that NATO has issued a warning to Russia calling for an end to its air strikes which are targeted at the US trained forces that have been trying to overthrow the Syrian government. Quite frankly, the US policy is seriously risking international war for this campaign to get rid of Assad because he is supported by Russia is absurd since there is no stable government to replace him even if they succeeded.
Russian jets did cross over into Turkey and Turkish F-16 fighter jets were scrambled in response. US Secretary of State John Kerry amazingly commented that Turkey would have been within its rights to shoot the jets down. This is really getting insane."
Dub,
Martin Armstrong made some good points, but the quote above is the most important. It's not just John Kerry but there's a whole bunch of people in the US calling for some sort of military confrontation. Suggestions to establish a no-fly zone are also asking for confrontation, IMO. It's unbelievable, just to get rid of Assad.
"Several Republican presidential candidates have recently supported a no-fly zone, including ex-Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina, Ohio Governor John Kasich and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie."

Brezinski has also weighed in:
"The United States should threaten to retaliate if Russia does not stop attacking U.S. assets in Syria, former national security adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote in a Financial Times op-ed published Sunday, urging "strategic boldness," with American credibility in the Middle East and the region itself at stake."

Of course, the US assets are CIA trained rebels created for the sole purpose of destroying the Syrian government. They don't even try to conceal it now!
There's many others asking for trouble, including Hillary, but I would have to look for the links. It's getting late.
