    US intelligence agencies have tried to kill the Ambassador of Russia in Turkey. It happened because, Russia, Iran and Turkey must talk about Aleppo on December 20. The US is trying to derail the talks.

    The Russian Foreign Ministry disproves the message on the death of the ambassador. They say that is in critical condition in hospital.

    There is a video of this sad incident. I've watched it. Though I am not going to post it here, quite sensitive pictures. One thing is clear to me, (from his speaking, his way of using the gun etc.) the killer was an agent, but I am not sure whose agent he was. (Might not be CIA, but I don't know.) The international news are going to say the killer was an Islamist militant, but I am pretty sure from that video that he was not.

    The Russian won't let this slide. It was probably a CIA hit because the gunman shouted Allahu Akbar!

    The CIA is all over the world, and it kills all over the world. Nothing like false flag attacks to create friction. It's the CIA's calling card.

    Anyway Turkey's a dangerous place for anyone right now.

    The CIA? They weren't Right with the Ukraine, Didn't know whats up with the Crimea. Got it wrong with Syria. Didn't have a clue with Libya and you think they made this move.


    Nah, this is something coming from Erdogan. Especially after the Russians didn't fall for the ceasefire with the Sunni Rebels in Syria.

    All are busy with arrests. After recent terrorist attack the police has arrested more nearly 1000 people. In total after the unfortunate rebellion, I believe, the number of arrested already goes on many tens of thousands of people.

    Erodogan is now the last person who needs the conflict with Russia. He has only just managed to begin to restore the relations after the incident with the shot-down Su-24. Turkey has taken a gap with Russia very hard. And now also with Europe has destroyed the relations. I don't think that Erodogan is involved in it. More likely, it was done by those who against Erdogan.

    4 others were laying on the floor too.



    The Russian ambassador to Ankara was shot in an attack at an art gallery in the Turkish capital on Monday and the Russian RIA news agency said he had died of his wounds.

    The Anadolu news agency said the gunman had been "neutralized" soon after the attack, which appeared to mark one of the most serious spillovers of the Syria conflict in Turkey. Relations between Moscow and Ankara have long been fraught over the conflict, the two supporting opposing sides.

    A Reuters witness said that while gunfire rang out for some time after the attack, it had now stopped. A Hurriyet newspaper reporter said the attacker chanted Islamist slogans.

    Tensions have escalated in recent weeks as Russian-backed Syrian forces have fought for control of the eastern part of the city of Aleppo, triggering a stream of refugees.

    A photograph posted on twitter showed a man in a black suit holding a pistol, standing close to a podium in the gallery, its walls hung with pictures. Four people including what appeared to be the ambassador lay on the floor.....snip~

    Nato scums have been found in E. Aleppo helping the terrorists destroy Syria. And then Samantha Powers acts like Mother Theresa at the UN blaming Assad for the deaths since he didn't bow to Washington's wishes and given Syria over to a Wahabbi extremist government.

    I pray for Trump. He's the only hope we have.

    Tensions had escalated.....Erdogan wanted NATO to come and protect him. If Russia retaliates.....he will call on NATO immediately.

    We should have kicked him out.

    Do ambassadors normally have security guards because to be honest, considering what's going on in Turkey, no official is really safe.
