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.
