( Bulent Kilic/AFP/Getty Images / December 3, 2012 ) Turks protest in Istanbul, accusing Russian President Vladimir Putin of protecting Syrian President Bashar Assad during the 21-month-old rebellion. Turkey has been flooded with refugees from the civil war in neighboring Syria, and stray rocket fire into border areas prompted NATO to approve deployment of Patriot missiles to defend Turkey. |
