the syrian government. shot down a turkish reconnaissance plane at the time they requested talk you requested that nato ask for help from the nato. at the time they requested that nato provide some sort of assistance in a response but no response was ever given collectively by nato to that so overall turkish officials have made it clear that they want to avoid any direct military involvement in syria all right and he's fully point was coa line from istanbul paulie thank you very much. and let's now get more perspective from james corbett has set of the colbert report janus and nice to see as always so if israel did indeed team up with. to conduct a strike on syria what's in it for. well again we do have to stress that these are preliminary reports so they do need to be confirmed but if this in fact did take place then this is obviously a pretty big move from just the recent apology over the mavi marmara incident to full fledged military joint military operations and that that would be quite striking to a lo

the syrian national coalition. well i think we'll see significant international divisions primarily because the united states and the united kingdom france other western nations have really made clear that they will only accept the fall of the side and despite the fact that they continually try to say that they're for peace negotiations it seems at every turn whether it's sending arms to the rebels whether it's in them quote unquote non-lethal aid money in general supporting the gulf countries that are also supporting them that really all of the talk about peace is disingenuous and unlike russia and other countries they seem very. determined to push forward the syrian rebels as the new leadership of the country regardless of the situation on the ground and talk of peace is pretty unlikely isn't it until those issues of chemical weapons and terrorist activities put to rest because still a lot of discussion over those aspects of what's happening there in syria i think that's one hundred percent correct i mean when th

and tacky was when the syrian government shutdown. plane last year and at the time take you requested that nato that its nato allies come up with a collective response but that never happened so publicly at least officials have maintained that they do not want to be in any direct military involvement in syria . from all the turkish military officials there and government officials as well. in istanbul thank you. well if indeed a strike the latest israeli strike on a earlier this month if indeed it does prove to be an act of the i.d.f. it could become the country's fourth attack against syria in six months and have a quick look here at some of the previous air raids a military compound just outside damascus bomb from the air on january thirty first a second similar operation reportedly happening though on may third in this vicinity here that's when a rocket struck a warehouse at the damascus international airport allegedly containing surface to surface missiles there also two days later massive blast described as earthquake like they s
