“Turkish journalist İbrahim Karagül, who is close to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, has published columns since the start of the Iran War envisioning the destruction of Israel at the hands of Turkey. In a March 13, 2026 column titled "If it makes that 'fatal mistake,' Turkey will invade Israel! It will burn and destroy Tel Aviv and liberate Jerusalem. You have not understood the turn of history! Our silence is dangerous! They cannot invade Iran. There will no longer be Arab-Persian wars or a sectarian war either. The 'Middle Eastern order' has collapsed. Israel is a one-day state."

I don’t trust Erdogan and his vision of a Neo-Ottoman empire: “And we have revenge to take for the dismantling of the Ottoman Empire... No power can draw a map in this region without Turkey's knowledge. It has been this way for a thousand years. We merely took a hundred-year break, and that time is over.….” Wouldn’t surprise me if he was “helping” the Iranian regime and they want Israel out of Lebanon regardless of Hezbollah terrorists.

Figures

Turkey is House of Togarmah

Prophesied to join Iran (Persia)
and Libya (Put or Phut) in the
Ezekiel 38 alliance / invasion
against Israel 🇮🇱 in the
Latter Days and Latter Years (KJV)

[Karliner]

Sounds a bit biblical. Prophetic?

[Jim Noble]

I have been a big fan of restoration of the Ottoman Empire and the Sultanate.

Very little trouble came out of Arabia and the Levant when Johnny Turk was in charge. Since Sykes Picot and related developments we have had nothing but trouble.

[Signalman]

Does Israel have nukes? Their official policy is ambiguity Maybe they have, maybe they don’t. I think I know what my guess would be.

[VanShuyten]

I prefer the Hagia Sophia be restored as a Christian cathedral.

[Antoninus]

Gee, suddenly Turkey is powerful. Wonder how that happened? Maybe because while Europe was busy contracepting, aborting, sodomizing and trans-ing itself into oblivion, the Turks (and Egyptians, and Iranians) were doing what comes naturally.

At some point over the next decade, Israel, with a population of 10 million, will be surrounded by +300 million mad Muslims. You can guess what the outcome will be.

“Ezekiel 38 alliance / invasion

It does sound that way……I don’t think it’s a good idea to have any of our nukes in Turkey.

[SaveFerris]

I hope that those weapons
require full Presidental Authorization

I’m sure that they do...

OTOH I believe that

transferred some latest model
B61 Mod 13s to Europe maybe
Turkey a couple of years ago

[SaveFerris]

Maybe they were B61 Mod 12

Mod 13s

AI Overview:

The latest version of the B-61 nuclear bomb is the B61-13, a high-yield strategic gravity bomb first produced in May 2025.

I went to Turkey before this awful Islamist Erdogan came into power. Turks were delightyed to see American women, were generous to a fault about prices they charged, quality of goods they sold.

My fave vacation. But Turkey is circling the drain, too dangerous for any woman to travel to and possibly any man.

Turkey is a NATO state today and should be kicked out.

The Islamic Brotherhood is the ruin of the world including Turkey.

Erdogan has millions of enemies and in the Turkish Delight area, millions of enemas. He needs to be bumped off and let the Army and Attaturk’s rule.

Erdogan musty go/

Israel will have a whole lot of trouble if they have to fight the Turks. The Turks are tough and won’t cut and run like the Arab armies did when they had a few setbacks.

[MinorityRepublican]

You can say the same about the UK.

Which means that we should withdraw from NATO.

[Mozzafiato]

This reads to me like Israeli propaganda. Israel has been itching to rope the USA into a conflict with Turkey, in order to remove their biggest threat in the Middle East.

[Netz]

Please correct me if I am wrong but the Brits have an opportunity and have the guts to fight Islam until it is pushed into the sea or sewer. The Turks are at the mercy of Erdogan.

The Brits can vote out the Socialists, the Turks can’t vote out the Islamic Brotherhood.

“This reads to me like Israeli propaganda.”
It was written by a Turk, Ibrahim Karagül, who is close to Erdogan.

[roving]

It reads like Bible prophecy to me. It’s going to happen regardless.

As I have often posted for several yaers, Israel's strategic situation is bad and getting worse, for the reasons you have laid out.
