        So a Syrian missile shoots down a Russian plane, and Russia blames Israel for that?!? Then people turn around and say it was a plot by the US?!? You guys can’t be that dumb! All countries are corrupt that doesn’t negate the fact that this story doesn’t make sense.

        Israeli F-16 pilots were using the Russian plane as a shield while carrying out missile strikes against targets in Syria’s Latakia province and put it in the line of fire from Syrian anti-aircraft batteries.

        A story coming out of Russia!! Let’s remember that Syria is working with Russia and Russia have Syria its radar technology! So if a Russian plane was in the sky why would you shoot ar it even if Israel’s f-16 were there? There story doesn’t make sense! End of story!

        ??? Umm, they weren’t shooting at the Russian plane obviously. They had a legitimate target that took cover behind the plane. However you spin it, Israel is responsible for the outcome of their illegal aggression.

        Nothing "illegal" about defending yourself against totalitarians like Iran or Russia

        Actually yes, it’s illegal to launch an attack on the sovereign territory of another nation. Also, when you’re a rogue apartheid genocidal state, you’re the one people are defending themselves against.

        Oh just like what Russia is doing in Crimea? Do you remember that commercial airline that the “Russian separatist” shot down. Or China in the South China Sea? My argument isn’t whats legal it’s against a bs story to blame Israel for its own mistake. The people they support did it

        The second you compared the decision of Crimeans to repatriate to Russia to an illegal Israeli aggression against a sovereign nation, is the second you demonstrated that your poor comprehension and inept political analysis precludes you from serious discussion. So I'm out. Bye.

        Isreal does have the most sophisticated defensive dome. Russia will have to fight hard and long to get through.

        Paper rockets have made it into the dome... what are you talking about? Israel doesn’t get hit bc the region has a lot of self control not bc of its iron dome.

        Let’s also not forget this same Syrian government used chemical weapons on its own people so, it wouldn’t surprise me if they shot down a Russian plane then blamed Israel to cover up its own mishaps or to try and start a war with them.

        1)Israel and France used the Russian plane as a cover. 2)Maybe you don't know the purpose of anti-missile systems. It's the first party that launched an attack on Syria.
