The Headline
Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered all his subordinates in politics and the defense establishment not to talk about Turkey anymore
The Turkish attempt to isolate Israel intensifies: the entire Turkish political elite in meetings against Israel
For the first time, Benjamin Netanyahu, and through him, apparently also the Israeli press "on behalf of", understands the political destruction brought about by the extension of the war, and in its wake the rise of the Turkish enemy state. On Friday, Turkish President Erdogan met with the President of Azerbaijan and the Prime Minister of Pakistan. Pakistan has military nuclear technology, and a nuclear bomb, as well as advanced technology for mounting nuclear warheads on ballistic missiles and cruise missiles. The Turkish military, security, and political elite, the Foreign Minister, the defense minister, and the Turkish Intelligence Chief, participated in both meetings on the Turkish side. This composition clarifies the areas of dialogue between the countries. Azerbaijan is an ally of Israel, and purchases substantial military equipment from it, which even helped it in its war with Armenia. It is possible that Turkey will try to replace Israel as a major arms supplier to Azerbaijan. Turkey is developing a 5th generation fighter jet, an advanced battle tank, and possesses advanced missile technology and UAVs. Last week, the Turkish foreign minister met with the Iraqi foreign minister to discuss paving the road that will connect the Gulf states to Turkey, and the two leaders also discussed the elections to be held in Iraq on Tuesday, November 11, elections in which Turkey has a great interest. Last month, we reported here on Turkey's attempt to renew the Hejaz Railway, which, together with the Gulf-Iraq-Istanbul Gulf Road, will serve as a logistical channel for Turkey's renewed imperial rule over the Middle East.
About six months ago, Turkey organized a conference of Islamic countries (the Organization of Islamic Cooperation) on behalf of Iran, and in our assessment, it is using Iran in return to deepen its grip and relations with extremist Shiite Islam in Lebanon, through which it exerts pressure on Israel and Cyprus (Turkish influence is evident in the renewed arrogant behavior of Hezbollah as well as Hamas). We have written here many times about the support that Turkey receives from European countries, and about the fact that the West has turned Europe's sick child into a logistical political channel for the West and the US in the Middle East, including about its neglect and even Israel's sacrifice for this purpose. Now, the head of the European Union's foreign policy, Kaja Kallas, is saying things that support this in the context of Greece, Cyprus, but also the Middle East: "We have a positive relationship with Turkey in areas of common interest. "Turkey remains a key partner for the European Union and a significant regional player." In this context, it should be mentioned that Turkey was marginalized for decades due to European disfavor, and its membership in the European Union, for example, has been repeatedly rejected since 1987; Turkey became a significant player for Europe only following the failed Israeli policy in the Iron Sword War, and mainly due to the danger that a third world war would break out, and Europe would have no logistical support in the Middle East. The head of Turkish military intelligence met about two months ago with the head of Egyptian intelligence in Cairo, where they planned the joint naval exercise that threatened Israel, and expressed their defense of the flotilla to Gaza. The Turks even caused Italy and Spain to send warships to the flotilla's area. Israel stopped the flotilla without any military escalation, apparently with American intervention. Turkey is now trying to send troops to Gaza, an event that, in our assessment, which was written about here before, will lead to a regional war. The Israeli government apparently does not find the forces to prevent the destructive move, after its actions transferred practical control over Israeli policy to US President Trump.
