Why? Turkey is actually historically a decent ally to the United States and Israel for that matter. Why would you want them in a long war?

Historically, yes. Recently, no. Their government is Islamist and getting worse; they have severed military cooperation with Israel;they are trying to align with Iran, and Erdogen has expressed a clear interest in an expansionist foreign policy. The Turkey of Attaturk is dead.
