War, War, War See other War, War, War Articles Title: NATO Discussing Ways to Provoke Russia Further NATO Discussing Ways to Provoke Russia Further by Stephen Lendman On Tuesday and Wednesday, NATO foreign ministers are meeting in Brussels on the pretext of “work(ing) on further measures to assure Turkey’s security,” and related issues, based on a nonexistent Russian threat. It sounds like a bad joke, except issues at stake are deadly serious, Russia-bashing featured in all NATO meetings, Erdogan’s well-planned act of aggression complicit with Washington called self- defense, Secretary-General Stoltenberg saying: NATO has “standing defense plans for (member country) Turkey (including) augmented…air defenses, (part of its) long-term commitment to an ally” - despite no nation threatening its security. Washington “deployed aircraft to support Turkey’s air defenses” - Britain to follow suit along with Germany and Denmark. “(W)e have decided to address the need to support Turkey before the incident last week.” Were NATO officials briefed about plans to down a Russian aircraft before the incident? All the fuss about Turkey reflects the latest way of bashing Russia. US-dominated NATO countries partnered with Israel and rogue Arab states alone threaten world peace and stability. Russia is the world’s leading anti-war nation - committed with its non-Western allies against the scourge of terrorism, what America fosters globally to serve its imperial interests. False accusations of Russian aggression wore thin long ago, US state terrorism allied with its rogue allies entirely ignored. Are plans to defend Turkish airspace code language for more anti-Russian provocations? Put nothing past neocon US policymakers, risking the unthinkable to further their agenda, possible nuclear war with Russia. Turkey already has one of the world’s strongest militaries, waging terror war against regional Kurds, entering Syrian and Iraqi airspace lawlessly, killing its fighters battling ISIS, Erdogan lying about combating terrorism. Aiding its military with US and other NATO member countries’ firepower increases the chance of direct confrontation with Russia. Is this what Washington intends, Erdogan recklessly going along, possibly getting embroiled with something way over his head, gravely risking Turkey’s security by playing America’s dirty game? His heedless downing of Russia’s aircraft, compounded by Big Lies justifying the unjustifiable, forced Putin to deploy S-400s and air-to-air missiles to protect his nation’s aircraft and anti-terrorist operations throughout Syria. Stoltenberg called enhanced Russian eastern Mediterranean and Baltic Sea region military capability a matter of “concern” - ignoring NATO’s hostile buildup and provocative military exercises near its borders, Russia responding responsibly to a confrontational US-led threat. Stoltenberg claims NATO must focus on new ways of deterring a (nonexistent) Russian threat. Maybe he means by lawlessly downing more of its aircraft, a sure way to get Putin to react responsibly, a provocation risking humanity-threatening nuclear war. Stephen Lendman lives in Chicago.

Indeed. Turkey said they released the audio of their warnings. Where is it? I aint seen it online. Edogan said he would resign if their was proof against him supporting the alligation of his supporting isis..... then he jailed turkish journalists that proved just that. Still.... the us and germany are pulling out their air defense missile systems.... so i really believe that lots of game.changing is happening here....... i see things happening in a positive manner... putin did not declare war and eadogan is blaming the west for the syrain problem as his children stand accused of theft rape and murder. I really think he is on the fast track to resign. ______________________________________ Suspect all media / resist bad propaganda/Learn NLP everyday everyway ;) If you don't control your mind someone else will.
