* LOOKS LIKE THE RUSSIANS WERE TELLING THE TRUTH... THOUGH APPARENTLY THERE WAS A 17 SECOND INCURSION...

According to a U.S. official, the [Russian] jet was hit inside Syrian airspace after briefly entering Turkish airspace.

The unnamed official told the Reuters news agency that the assessment was based on detection of the heat signature of the jet.

* F--KIN' STUPID, IRRESPONSIBLE TURKS...

One of the pilots of the Russian jet that was shot down by Turkey was rescued and is back at his base, Russia's defense minister has said.

Sergei Shoigu said the flight engineer was extracted after a 12 hour mission by special forces on the ground in Syria.

* THANK GOD FOR THAT!

The Russian ambassador to France claimed the other airman - presumed to be the pilot - was wounded as he parachuted down and killed on the ground by "jihadists in the area".

* EXECUTED? BY OUR "ALLIES?"

NATO said the incursion into Turkish airspace lasted 17 seconds, but Moscow denies the plane ever entered Turkey, providing data of its own as proof.

* IN ANY CASE... SHOOTING DOWN THE RUSSIAN JET WAS AN ACT OF LUNACY.

Russia's president Vladimir Putin on Wednesday accused Turkey's leadership of deliberately supporting Islamification in its country and said Russia was sending its S-400 missile system to Syria to defend its airbase.

* FOLKS... TURKEY HAS BEEN UNDERGOING "ISLAMIFICATION." THE MILITARY HAS BEEN PURGED. THE SECULAR PRO-U.S. TURKEY THAT FIRST JOINED NATO IN 1951 NO LONGER EXISTS!

But, while speaking to reporters, the Russian ambassador to France added that Russia would be prepared to 'create a joint staff' to fight the Islamic State in which Moscow would work with France, the United States and even Turkey.

* FOLKS... AGAIN... THE RUSSIANS ARE MORE "THE GOOD GUYS" THAN ARE OBAMA AND HIS ADMINISTRATION! GET THAT REALITY - AS UNPALATABLE AS IT IS - THROUGH YOUR HEADS!

A large group of juveniles robbed a clothing store in Georgetown on Tuesday evening and stole $13,000 worth of items, according to D.C. police.

* HMM... ANY PARTICULAR "TYPE" OF "JUVENILES?"

* ARE WE TALKING "MULTI-ETHNIC" OR ARE WE TALKING WHITE... OR BROWN... OR BLACK... (NOTICE IT DOESN'T EVEN OCCUR TO ME TO ADD "YELLOW.")

(*SMIRK*)

The incident happened just before 6 p.m. at the Diesel store in the 3000 block of M Street NW. More than 20 people went into the store and grabbed several items off the racks, police said. They stole four leather jackets, costing about $800, and an additional $12,000 worth of merchandise.

* WOW... I GUESS THERE WERE NOT CAMERAS... NO VIDEO SURVEILLANCE...???

(*ANOTHER SMIRK*)

One person who worked at the store was said to have been pushed from behind by someone in the crowd. The employee was not injured, according to police. Police described the suspects only as juveniles.

* YEAH... I BET.

(*YET ANOTHER SMIRK*)

A spokesperson for Diesel did not respond to requests for comment.

A group of merchants earlier this year in Georgetown ended its use of a private messaging service that many retailers, residents and police officers had used to talk about people they thought were suspicious. There were concerns that the service was being used to racially profile people.

(*JUST ROLLING MY EYES*)

Georgetown is one of the nation’s poshest shopping districts.

* BUT APPARENTLY NOT MOST FORTHCOMING...

* THIS BUSINESS DESERVES WHAT IT GOT! THEY DON'T WANNA IDENTIFY THE PERPS? FINE. THEN SCREW 'EM.
