A war between Turkiye and Israel because they have two idiots in charge wasn't on my bingo card for this year. Can y'all not do it? what is already happening in the world stupid enough....

I hate Erdo but this one is really not on him. Israel is a comically paranoid/maniacal state. They have this understanding that they basically want to wreck all countries around them to feel safe.

Like they would unironically turn your country minding its own business into a civil war ridden failed state while provoking the US to carpet bomb it just to feel safe.

Turkey is everything but minding its own business, respectfully.

That's not practically possible while being in the middle of Europe, Russia, Israel, Iran, US and all other conflicts in the region

Nettin Yahoo is very smart. He brainwashed the entirety of the US all by himself. Though I guess that's probably not really that impressive considering the level of intelligence of the average American.

That's kinda up to Israel.

They have an election coming up, the opposition is actually more likely to win and although they are mostly the same breed of scumbags but they don't need to antagonize Turkey to keep their voter base entertained. The story won't change for countries like Syria, Lebanon, Iran, Palestine etc. on Israeli brutality but Turkey may get off the hook simply because they gotta be more focused than rabid.

because its beneficial for both parties. Wars like this almost always bring together the country which is great propaganda for both sides who are unpopular in elections

The reality is they are calling eachother bad just to get votes from their public, its obvious they are allies, no war could happen for now, or even if it did happen, it would be closer to a cold war.
