Turkish troops illegally occupy Iraq, but shooting down a Russian jets is ok?

Pure hypocrisy! A few weeks ago Turkey shot down a Russian jet for being too closed to its border, yet now the Turkish army can enter Iraq without permission and set up a base. Not to mention the many years of uninvited Turkish air raids against the Kurds inside sovereign Iraqi territory.

Just what is Turkey playing at?

The hypocrisy is indeed astounding, but at the same time predictable. This is a clear violation of Iraq's sovereignty and a violation of international law, yet Turkey are allowed, by the West and NATO, to get away with it.

Iraq have every right to attack the Turkish troops and force them out of the country, but this would cause a major incident, so it's right that they're trying to pressure NATO and the UN into doing something. Russia is allegedly in Turkish airspace for 17 seconds and their jets are attacked, while Turkey have now been violating Iraqi sovereignty for days.

And this is, of course, the same Turkey which may have been involved in direct dealings with ISIS.

As has Assad.

I suspect Assad has been dealing with ISIS too, yes, though I haven't looked into it fully.

"I suspect"

"haven't looked into it fully"

Your own biases are in play. Assad has had more dealings with ISIS than Turkey has. He supplies them with cash and electricity in exchange for oil.
