Erdogan Downed Su-24 To Revenge Son's Disrupted Oil Business by Nobody: 9:53am On Nov 29, 2015
Turkey shot down Russia's bomber as revenge for the destruction of oil smuggling business that belongs to Recep Tayyip Erdogan's son, a Syrian minister stated.
DAMASCUS (Sputnik) – Turkey downed the Russian Su-24 Fencer bomber over Syria in response to the destruction of hundreds of semi-truck oil tankers sent to Turkey from Syria by the Islamic State, Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi said.
The information minister said that oil smuggled into Turkey was bought by the Turkish president’s son, who owns an oil company.
“All of the oil was delivered to a company that belongs to the son of Recep [Tayyip] Erdogan. This is why Turkey became anxious when Russia began delivering airstrikes against the IS infrastructure and destroyed more than 500 trucks with oil already. This really got on Erdogan and his company’s nerves. They’re importing not only oil, but wheat and historic artefacts as well,” al-Zoubi told RIA Novosti in an interview.
“The fact of the attack on the [Russian] plane in Syrian airspace without any warning, as the surviving Russian [co-]pilot reported, confirms once again that Turkey is lying,” the information minister said.
On Tuesday, a Turkish Air Force F-16 downed the Russian bomber 4 kilometers from the Turkish border. Both the Russian General Staff and the Syrian Air Defense Command confirmed that the Su-24 never crossed into Turkish airspace and was shot down over Syrian territory, citing precise objective control data.Russian President Vladimir Putin described the incident as a "stab in the back, carried out against us by accomplices of terrorists."
One of the two Su-24 pilots was killed by fire from the ground after ejecting from the plane. The second pilot was rescued in a 12-hour-long operation.
Russia has been carrying out an aerial campaign against the Islamic State jihadist group in Syria since late September at the request of Damascus. Moscow has repeatedly called on the UN Security Council to take extra steps to determine who was buying oil from the militants.
Syria has repeatedly accused Turkey, as well as several Gulf states, of funding ISIL.

[size=18pt]Saudi Arabia to sue Twitter for comparing them to Islamic State after execution of apostates [/size]

The country's justice ministry announced that it will take legal action against the unnamed Tweeter, who was railing against the death sentence handed down to a poet for the medieval crime of "apostasy". 

Saudi Arabia - which has been repeatedly accused of covertly supporting the jihadi hate group - has a highly controversial justice system which operates a regime of Sharia Law. The Arab nation carries out more executions than almost any other country on earth, with the favoured method of death being beheading. 

The most recent victim of its barbaric regime is Palestinian poet Ashraf Fayadh, who was sentenced to death last week for allegedly renouncing his Muslim faith. 
Apostasy is considered a serious crime in the oppressive nation, which has executed at least 175 people this year. 

His case has attracted international condemnation with key figures in the art world including British poet laureate Carol Ann Duffy and TV historian Simon Schama penning a letter to the Saudi authorities calling for his release. 

But officials in the Middle Eastern nation appear unrepentant and have lashed out at those who have compared their oppressive regime to that of ISIS. government source said: "The justice ministry will sue the person who described the sentencing of a man to death for apostasy as being 'ISIS-like'.

"Questioning the fairness of the courts is to question the justice of the Kingdom and its judicial system based on Islamic law, which guarantees rights and ensures human dignity."

He added that Saudi Arabia would not hesitate to take legal action against "any media that slandered the religious judiciary of the Kingdom", according to a report in the Al-Riyadh newspaper. 

The source did not identify the Twitter user or the possible penalty should they be found guilty.
