Erdogan said that "at the border there are no syrian rebels, so if russia bombs the border, they bomb turkmen"
Following that statement, can only be turkmen
officially, not sure yet. Both have been claimed

I really feel bad for civilians whose lives mean nothing in these dirty games that are being played.
THe horror of assad has put erdogan in the shadow at the moment, but he has a huge responsibility in the casualties in syria, iraq, and wherever IS is murdering and raping.
I wonder if turks realise this. Cause Russia will take vengence, and it will cause civilian casualties.
Just cause Erdogan wanted to try break up Russia and VS so IS could continue to murder kurds so they could annexate territories in the future for his new ottoman empire.

Yeah, the Turkish government looks totally deluded. They don't understand that there is a huge anti islamist fervor in the West and by showing that they support a radical group they are losing support vs Russia. Turkey will be more and more isolated and there are voices to cut them from NATO. This is a huge own goal for Turkey and I won't be surprised if they lose a lot in the end.
Nobody is saying the deaths of civilians aren't important. How does it follow that because Russia may have killed civilians (and incidentally, Google revealed that the page you linked is the only source for this story), Turkey, which has killed thousands upon thousands of its own civilians and enables terrorists to kill a lot more Syrians than Russian planes ever will, is justified in shooting down a plane that posed no threat to it? That they were flying over Turkmen is just the usual imperialist rhetoric from Erdogan, who sees the whole region as Greater Turkey. Very interesting that the media accepts that justification but continues to criticize Russia's intervention in Crimea.

Not going to happen, unfortunately. The US knew immediately that the 9/11 attackers were almost all Saudis and that al Qaeda got most of its funding from Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, but they can't risk losing those allies. So they went after Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran, which have had nothing to do with terrorist attacks against the US.
That, and after the war in Iraq I don't think Americans would support another long, possibly indefinite occupation.

My mistake, it was in Afghanistan. Here's an interesting piece on the alleged Russian hospital bombing:

I feel like I'm constantly defending Russia which isn't my intention, but I just get a little tired of the rhetoric from our media. They won't take Erdogan to task over his record in Syria, but they'll publish any negative innuendo about Russia. Erdogan funds terrorists, bombs his own people and shoots down a Russian plane and then runs and hides behind Uncle Sam. Putin could very likely be the greater evil in the end, but I find Wormtail infinitely more detestable than Voldemort.
