I could see if NATO jumps in with Turkey that Russia joins Syria, Iran. This would be a very bad event in human history.
It's possible that within the next year that. I won't say it.

MOSCOW Escalating a confrontation with Russia, Turkeys prime minister said Thursday that Russian military equipment and munitions bound for Syrias Defense Ministry had been confiscated from a Syrian civilian jetliner on a Moscow-to-Damascus flight, which was forced to land in Ankara on suspicion of illicitly carrying war material.
The accusation by the prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, also inflamed Turkeys already difficult relationship with Syria, where a 19-month-old uprising against President Bashar al-Assad has expanded into a civil war that is threatening the stability of the Middle East.
Mr. Erdogans accusation, reported by Turkeys semiofficial Anatolian News Agency, came only hours after the Russian Foreign Ministry accused the Turks of illegally searching the plane and demanded an explanation. A leading Russian arms export company denied that military equipment from Russia could have been aboard.
