World War One Wednesday (on a Thursday)

Wasn't able to post anything last night, but here is a bit of reflection on contemporary events.
Plus ça change...

Yesterday - A Russian jet downed by Turks

A propaganda poster from 100 years ago.

The conflict between Turk and Russian has a long ancestry. And neither country has a government run by men I would consider trust-worthy.The last time they fought was a disaster for both. Have they learned anything?
