Is war coming to S.W. Asia???

Lately The Turkish Shot down a Russian fighter over it's airspace.
Syria is a middle eastern country in civil war.
Turkey is a Asian country that is a member of NATO .
Does this mean Russia might go to war with Turkey?
The Former Ottoman empire tried to invade Southern Russia & were beaten back by Czarist Russian troops.
Most the wars in the middle east are between 2 religious sects of Islam, Sunnis & Shiites.
This has been going on for a long time.

Does this mean Russia & turkey will goto war with Iran on their side?

I don't want the U.S. to be in the middle of this.

Who is the REAL evil in thing?

Well what do u think?

War is already in Southwest Asia. Turkey-Kurdistan; Armenia and Azerbaijan skirmishes over Nagorno-Karabakh; Iran-Kurdistan on and off conflicts. Georgia, somewhat quiet or just not in the news? Ottomans and Czars are ancient history, and irrelevant.

Wars in the Middle East are recently between Sunnis and Shi'as, yes, but also Christians, and Jews, and ethnic and tribal conflicts... all very complicated with deeply rooted histories.

Russia and Turkey will not go to war over an incident. Political and strategic stupidities aside, everyone knows who and where the real evil is.

Is it in Iran?
Iran one time tried to join the axis forces but was invaded by the Soviet Union & Britain in the early days of world war 2.
They used the Iranian Railroads to supply Russia.
It seems like the Nazis have returned to Iran.

Will Putin strike back?

Will the Russians shoot down a Turkish plane with missiles?

How long before Ollie North gives Stinger's to the rebels?

Rumor has it that the Governor of Virginia is a Irish gun runner getting guns from Libya to Syria, that is why he is in the middle east.
