"Would you explain that to the dead crew of the Turkish jet who only flew by?"
The inaction on the part of the world regarding the slaughter in Syria appears to have convinced Assad, not without reason, that he can do anything he wishes with no fear of repriasal - all the Annan initiative as they stand at present wouls achieve is a return to the status quo in Syria.
Nato has seen fit to act on the situation - it has had an emergency meeting to prevent Turkey from responding to the atrocity - would that they had shown the same concern over the massacres.
From this morning's Times:

"NATO SEEKS TO EASE TURKISH FURY OVER DOWNED JET
Roger Boyes Diplomatic Editor
Nato has called an emergency session of its governing body as tensions continue to rise after Syria shot down a Turkish F4 Phantom jet fighter.
The first goal of tomorrow's meeting will be to restrain Ankara's anger over what it calls "a hostile act" and to seek to prevent any independent military re¬taliation against Syria.
But Nato sources say that the incident could start to mobilise support within the Alliance for a no-fly zone over the Turkish-Syrian border. Washington called the incident "brazen and unacceptable".
Britain was quick to express its soli¬darity with Turkey. William Hague, the Foreign Secretary, declared: "The United Kingdom stands ready to pursue robust action at the United Nations Security Council."
He was speaking as dozens more people were killed in Syrian fighting — as many as 72 over the weekend, according to activists — and after a frustrating round of talks on how to advance the ailing peace plan of Kofi Annan.
The emergency meeting has been requested by Turkey under Article Four of Nato's founding Washington Treaty. This allows a member state to call for Alliance solidarity when its "territorial integrity, political independence or security is threatened".
It also inches the Alliance towards the sterner Article Five, which views an attack against a single member as an attack against all. That could activate the already drafted contingency plans for a no-fly zone to protect safe havens along the Turkish border.
Syria claims that the low-flying jet was unidentified and that when it real¬ised what had happened it began a search for the crew. "There was no hostile act against Turkey," Jihad Makdissi, from the Syrian Foreign Ministry, said. "It was just an act of defence."
Turkey says that the plane was merely testing Turkish radar defences, hence the low altitude, and was clearly marked. The remains of the jet have now been located."

The violence in Syria is intensifying and while nothing is done so stop it, it will continue to do so.

"This is my day off, I'm going to have fun all day!! "
Not a game Bozo - you obviously have the same level of concern for the Syrian people as our paper patriot here has!
