Erdogan says Turkey might enter Israel to help Palestinians

ANKARA (Reuters) - President Tayyip Erdogan said on Sunday that Turkey might enter Israel as it had done in the past in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh, though he did not spell out what sort of intervention he was suggesting.

Erdogan, who has been a fierce critic of Israel's offensive in Gaza, started discussing that war during a speech praising his country's defence industry.

"We must be very strong so that Israel can't do these ridiculous things to Palestine. Just like we entered Karabakh, just like we entered Libya, we might do similar to them," Erdogan told a meeting of his ruling AK Party in his hometown of Rize.

"There is no reason why we cannot do this ... We must be strong so that we can take these steps," Erdogan added in the televised address.

AK Party representatives did not respond to calls asking for more detail on Erdogan's comments. Israel did not immediately make any comment.

The president appeared to be referring to past actions by Turkey.

Right now Bibi Netanyahu is Israel’s strength to survive. Kind of like their Donald J Trump.

In Ezekiel 39 : 9 – 15, we see that following this war, Israel waits 7 months ( v. 14 ) , then takes 7 months to bury the dead ( v. 12 ). Also, the war materials are burned for 7 years. Turkey does not have a chance against the One True God.

Reminds me of a Dirty Harry scene. Guess which one.

Should Israel take him out? It wouldn’t be us. Plausible deniability.

The Turkish Air Force is tough and well equipped. But if they enter Israel, they’ll get nuked and have no way to respond.

I always wanted to see Ankara glow day and night.

Hamas is crying out for help.

Would be funny to see Erdogan get curb stomped by Israel.

IMHO the Ezekiel 38 war is regional

Sheba and Dedan (Saudi Arabia) protests the Ezekiel 38 invasion - which perfectly fits Sunni Saudi Arabia fighting Shia Iran in Yemen (Iran-backed Houthis)

While Armageddon is ALL nations coming to battle at the Valley of Jezreel (Megiddo)

Ezekiel 38:13
King James Version

13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

LATTER YEARS / LATER DAYS

Ezekiel 38:8
King James Version

8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.

Ezekiel 38:16
King James Version

16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.

To: Psalm 73

These are interesting times.

Matthew 24:6–8

“You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.” An increase in false messiahs, an increase in warfare, and increases in famines, plagues, and natural disasters—these are signs of the end times. In this passage, though, we are given a warning: we are not to be deceived, because these events are only the beginning of birth pains; the end is still to come.

Zechariah 14:2
21st Century King James Version

2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished. And half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

If Turkey went to war with Israel, would that trigger NATO’s Article 5 and put the USA at war with Israel too?

If Turkey attacks Israel, Turkey is on their own. If a NATO member launches a war, all of NATO is not obligated to join them. That would put Estonia, Turkey, or the Dutch directly in charge of the US armed forces.

It is a little tricky. If Turkey were to attack Israel this would be outside of the NATO treaty obligations and Turkey would be on its own. If, however, Israel were to take preemptive action and attack Turkey inside of Turkey (not in Syria or Lebanon), this would trigger NATO’s Article of collective self-defense. This requires assistance but not military intervention. But if Israel were to attack Turkish troops in Syria or Lebanon, then this would again be outside of NATO’s obligations. If war started in Syria and then spread to Turkey, I do not know how NATO would address this.
