That was the gulf of tonkin incident (the ship that came "under attack" was in the gulf of tonkin, likely was never really attacked but firing at "ghost" on the radar)

PS...the pilots are safe, probably just nerves on the part of Syrian air defense, if a war comes between Turkey and Syria, it should not be from this.

No. The greeks always go into our airspace and we go into theirs; we even get into dog fights. No plane was every shot down by both sides. Recently a Israel aircraft went into our air space and then two F-16 escorted it.

:offtopic: Lets stay on topic. This is far more important; if the allegation are true, this can lead to a war!

The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all.

But incident happened in Asia!!!!!!! So, all other NATO members have no binding to participate in case of Turkey-Syria confrontation?????? Any one enlight???............

Dude its about NATO membership dont make me angry now. You talk like if every EU country is a part of NATO.

Well about our F-4 incident Syrian Military should use Intercept protocol.Call for Intention before fire missiles.It's a well know fact.You cant just shoot a plane even it is your territory.Syrian Goverment is guilty for my point of view but we all know it is not about who is right or wrong, it is about who has a bigger balls

Why would any Syrian side shoot down Turkish plane??

My bet is that Syrian ADA is nervous and on high alert expecting a suprise raid or intervention, at the distance modern ADA works, you can't see a flag or roundel on a plane (you just know it isn't yours)

President Gul said that the incident was currently being investigated by the officials and once they come to a conclusion, they will release a statement.

And stop with this USS Liberty and whether it was sunk or not crap! I hate when I see people deviate from the topic. WTF man!
