Seems like an odd way of looking at it, if Russia had responded by nuking Ankara this would have given NATO the excuse they wanted to escalate to WW3. Russia were civilized in their response, not resorting to primitive tit for tat retaliation.

Whereas when dealing with the US, if a neighboring country of yours happens to get blamed for knocking down a couple of their buildings, the US might well decide to invade you for over 10 years, to 'save your people', even though it wasn't you or your neighbor country who really did it.
