Would Turn Aside help save an illusion that has been targeted? because dont Counterspells act as if the spell was never cast therefore nothing was ever truly targeted?...also sorry i know this probably should have gone in Q&A but i dont know how to post there, and i couldnt find it since i didnt want to rifle through a crap load of pages hoping to find something remotely like my question.

No. Once an illusion becomes targeted, its sacrifice ability triggers and goes onto the stack. At that point, countering the spell or ability that targeted the illusion will do nothing to stop the sacrifice. The sac ability itself must be countered.
In the Q&A, there's a large red link in the upper right that says "ask a question." Use that if you don't see your question asked in the first 1-3 pages (that's a reasonable amount of time for a question to be reasked after).
