Why would someone with seeming ties to radical Sharia loving Islam want to cozy up with Israel when Turkey wants to go away from a secular society to one under an Islamic thumb?

Keep my friends close and my enemies closer?

Or maybe not.

I don’t trust Erdo....but I suppose Bibi knows what’s up.....considering Obama has given him the finger.

Ping!

Erdogan just now extending a friendly hand to Israel a couple of years after Israel apologized and compensated Turkey in an attempt to repair relations.

Why now? Maybe what you said: (Turkey as the hub for Russian and Israeli gas)

Logical.
