Turkey’s president has threatened to invade Israel over its continued bombardment of Lebanon.
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan accused Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, of being “blinded by blood and hate” and said there was “no reason” not to attack.
The speech came after Turkish prosecutors filed indictments against 35 top Israeli officials, including Mr Netanyahu, seeking a total of more than 4,500 years in prison.

Israel will ckean his clock
Hezbollah bombs Israel night and day for years, and Israel isn’t justified in trying to stay alive? My God, the entire Islamic world is just Nazi 2.0, aren’t they?
Apparently half the posters here are Nazi antisemites. This is shocking.
No kidding. That was my first thought, too. Israel put up with their nonstop attacks since their FOUNDING in 1948, nearly EIGHTY YEARS AGO.
Second thought was that’s the end of Turkey in NATO.
Third thought was “Where are our nukes that are supposed to be in Turkey?”
Erdogan has issued many threats of that nature to appease his public but has never followed through with any of them.
Thank goodness for the u.n. eh? 😳😅👍

Apparently half the posters here are Israel firsters. This is shocking.
Don’t underestimate the Turks, they are a tough breed.
per Grok:
The NATO nuclear weapons in Turkey consist of U.S.-owned B61 tactical gravity bombs (nuclear gravity bombs) stored as part of NATO's nuclear-sharing arrangements. These weapons remain under strict U.S. custody and control at all times, with permissive action link (PAL) codes held by the United States. Turkey does not have independent authority over them.
They are stored exclusively at İncirlik Air Base (also spelled Incirlik), near Adana in southern Turkey. This is a Turkish Air Force base that hosts U.S. and other NATO personnel (primarily the U.S. 39th Air Base Wing). The bombs are kept in underground WS3 storage vaults inside hardened aircraft shelters within a secured "NATO area" of the base. No other locations in Turkey host U.S./NATO nuclear weapons.
Turkey does not permanently host U.S. nuclear-capable fighter aircraft at the base for delivery. In a crisis, U.S. aircraft would need to fly in to load the bombs, or the weapons could be evacuated/shipped elsewhere. Turkish F-16s have historically participated in related NATO exercises, but operational details are limited.
All talk. When’s the last time they did anything except pick on the much weaker Kurds?
That is what I hear. Someone talked about Muslim violence, and the fact that other Muslims never say that they oppose it.
Will the Turks stage at the plains of Megiddo ?
The EU allowed Erdogan to remain in power. The TGS offered early on to remove him. The EU couldn’t be party to that.
Well, another islamic terrorist nation steps up to the plate.
Turkey has a navy. Israel should tell them to park them all at their home ports next week or they will be blown out of the water. See if Erdogan calls their bluff. A good challenge to NATO, right? A better challenge to Erdogan’s rule.
As the Syrian tyrant Assad was exiting Syria, Israel took steps to protest itself, and southern Syrians. First, they flew many missions to destroy much of Assad/Syrian weapons. They knew whatever replaced Assad would eventually attack Israel.
They also moved into Southern Syria to establish a buffer zone, preventing terrorists amassing at the Israeli border. They have also run missions to protect the Druze community in Southern Syria.
The current “leader” in Damascus is Ahmad al-Sharaa. He has been a leader in several jihadist outfits. He would not be there without Turkey’s approval.
Meh, doubtful. Turkey is big and tough.
