WNU Editor,
He may not be the last Russian serviceman to die in Syria, but it won't be long until we see the first, second, third etc and so on Turkish servicemen going to meet their maker.
Regardless, Canada needs to leave the region right f'n now. The Turkish Ambassador needs to be expelled in the same amount of time.
It's also a bit of a "coincidence" to me that the Ukrops pulled that $@#! with the Crimean overhead transmision lines right before this happened. I also don't believe our so-called NATO allies didnt see any of this coming.
Regardless,
For those who are cheering the Sultan and friends, remember 1999 when Chechen Wahhibis were on the loose.. Putin said Russia would get them all, even if the "were hiding in the toilet". Every leader of that gang from Basaev, Dudaev, Hattab, Mashkhadov on down, is now dead. He got every single one.
So, as American rapper DMX said:
"Don't walk too fast and talk too much cuz it's y'all niggaz' ass and you know what's up."
