The IDF may give him a Viking funeral.
Erdogan is obviously intending to bust it & go Muslim!
as he is floating towards the blockade... might i suggest putting a few hundred tanks on the northern border of Israel... and start pushing north, claiming the territory as you go.
after all, if they don’t recognize your blockade, why should you recognize their border?
while you’re at it... i’d push the borders of Egypt, Iraq, and Syria. time to increase the size of Israel. if they don’t like it... maybe they shouldn’t have messed with the blockade.
this is getting out of hand and our government should say so.
Where is our Sixth Fleet when we need it?
I just hope this is all bravado talk and nothing else. If not, as the main provider of NATO, the USA should insist that Turkey’s PM cease his provocation.
If the Turkish Navy gets involved in this, expect an international incident which COULD LEAD TO WAR.
When a foreign country tried to block your blockade by force, there is no alternative but war.
Send in the bulldozer paratroopers.
That may lead turkey to call on NATO to honor its obligations--in support of a fellow member--- and obama will be only too eager to please, I'm sure, him being the alien moslem teabagger that he is.
Where does the NATO treaty stand when a member is the actual aggressor?
Let’s hope if he tries this, the Turkish military will see it as an affront to Turkish secularism and take the opportunity to forcibly call new elections in which a certain party will not be allowed to participate.
It’s NOT your Father’s Turkey anymore.
That’s past tense.
He’s already done it.
The US should throw Turkey out of NATO.
Perhaps Israel could invite North Korea to conduct joint war games, then tell the goonies that a South Korean ship is approaching!
“..the USA should insist that Turkey’s PM cease his provocation.”
If the U.S. had an American as President, he’d do just what you suggest. But....
Isn’t this an act of War?
They’re fine with it: the U.S. bombed Yugoslavia and later Serbia without provocation on the plea that a country defending itself against Muslim aggression was creating a “humanitarian diaster”, so why shouldn’t Turkey be able to do the same?
The Alien president is probably covertly encouraging Turkey's behavior against Israel, hoping Israel has to defend itself against Turkey. The Alien president will then suggest that NATO help escort ships into Gaza. Can you imagine the 6th Fleet be tasked to protect and help Muslim terrorists break the sea blockade of Gaza?
