No its gone reactionary to perceived wrongs. 9 dead in Berlin as well.

Anyone else idly wondering whether anyone makes it to 2017?

Fuck me, the world is a tinderbox right now.

Its only going to get worse, buckle up.

Barry could easily go postal and take Sotonians out

I don’t seek to make capital from a tragedy.

Didn’t the Turks knock one of their jets out of the sky last year. This will end well.

the Turks have already said this is someone trying to stir up shit between Russia and Turkey.

Let them get on with it, what can we do?

Doing a bloody good job of it as well

The BBC report:

Russia and Turkey agreed quickly the assassination was an act of “provocation”
In televised remarks, Russian President Vladimir Putin said the act was “undoubtedly… aimed at disrupting the normalisation” of bilateral ties and the “peace process in Syria”.

When i heard this news, i immediately thought CIA. Is Putin confirming that? What was the term used by Obama, when he threatened Russia over their supposed involvement in the US election?

Enjoy Christmas everyone, it might be our last.

Thought this was gonna be Christmas thread RIP

I think the BBC were saying that one Turkish paper said the shooter had links to Gulen, the chap who the failed “coup” was blamed on. He’s based in the U.S.

The whole world is just far too complicated, fucked up and depressing. I liked it when we just had to worry about the Cold War and MAD.
