Turkey now basically encouraging Syria to strike Israel
“Why didn’t (Bashar) Assad even throw a pebble when Israeli jets were flying over his palace and playing with the dignity of his country?” Davutoglu told reporters Saturday on his way to an international conference on Syria in Munich, which Defense Minister Ehud Barak is also expected to attend.
“Why didn’t the Syrian Army, which has been attacking its own innocent people for 22 months now from the air with jets and by land with tanks and artillery fire, respond to Israel’s operation? Why can’t Assad, who gave order to fire SCUD missiles at Aleppo, do anything against Israel?” Davutoglu added.

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk cries in his grave.
The stupid Recep Tayyip Erdoğan married a muzzie freak and ruined a good land.

Obama’s first trip as Pres in 08 was to Turkey. I’d say this was all in the making years ago. But I’m sure that was just a coincidence. Everything he does is part of a bigger plan. He just knows the importance of a slow and distracted roll out is what makes everything he does so successful.

Send them 200 tanks, quick smart! Or the crazy Islamists will take over and we’ll lose leverage over the slightly less crazy Islamists.

Why can’t Turkey, turkey?

Because Assad isn’t looking forward to dealing with the business end of an F-16?

Why is Turkey still a NATO member? Oh yeah, most of our NATO “allies” are full of anti-semites too….

Ergodan can’t wait to see an Islamist government ruling in Syria. Then all of them can go after the “Crusaders”.
It is all just boring now. Turkey won’t attack Israel yet. They have to wait until Egypt has been consolidated first.

“Please strike the country brazenly defending itself rather than us, who are only trying to overthrow you.”
