Israel can’t commit everything either. Lots of hyenas and jackals waiting for just the right time to attack them.

But, you’re probably right.

With low loiter time, the Turkish navy would have a serious air cover issue when the Israeli Strike Eagles came out to play. And I bet the Israelis have a bunch of stand-off munitions with longer ranges than the Turkish Navy’s SAMs. Which means that once the Israeli escorts tie up the Turkish CAP, the Strike Eagles will essentially be going in unopposed...

If this were just Israel and Turkey squaring off, then yeah I’d say you’d be right. But it’s not. Egypt, Lybia, Syria, Sudan and Iran will be involved in this as well as Turkey. Israel will survive, but this won’t be a cakewalk like some on here believe, it’s going to get incredibly bloody.
