For Turkey to include soldiers in an effort to break through a legal blockade is effectively an act of war. Thus Israel can and should interdict and disable these vessels at sea, with notification to a neutral power that these ships will require aid in their removal to a neutral port.

Possibly the easiest means to do this would be for Israel to make a small, acoustic torpedo, without explosives other than to propel perhaps 20 pounds of tough nylon cable into the ships propeller, rendering it inoperative and unable to be fixed at sea. Like sticking a ball of yarn into a blender.

But there are many, many ways to disable ships at sea from a distance. If nothing else, put a bunch of .50 caliber armor piercing rounds through their engine.

“with notification to a neutral power that these ships will require aid in their removal to a neutral port.”

And there just happens to be squadron of ships belonging to a “neutral” nation, just a few hours steaming distance away, in the Port of Tartus.

Given Bibi and Vlad’s “New” relationship, would that too far-fetched, especially given who is REALLY behind such a Turkish move?

What happens when Turkish aggressors are destroyed ?

Turkey invokes Chapter 7 of the NATO treaty?

IAF sinks Turkish fleet to show resolve for NATO to back off?

NATO responds by atacking IAF bases?

Israel puts some of 300 warheads to good use?

Since NATO is already poking the Russian bear Ruskies jump into the fray in ME on Israeli side, Chicoms and India simultaneously respond in the Indian Ocean and Pacific.

Golfer in Chief will figure it out when the sky darkens because of the fallout. He could only whine to the Neocons: give me back my fleets.

Gog and Magog time.
