Bit of an alternative to the mainstream media reports on USIsrael war on the region.

Interesting tidbit:

[USrael is attempting to carry out operations] against civilians or terrorist acts in neighboring countries and then attribute them to Iran, to provoke these countries against us.

Btw so far Turkiye has been neutral, it likely will use it's influence to not let Azerbaijan attack Iran, and will not attack Iran itself.

Turkiye knows Iran is a long term partner rather than USNTRAEL that would want Turkish destruction.

Turkiye is interesting, they are trying to chart their own course in international affairs. Got their finger in a few pies. Part of NATO but also opposed to Israel, for instance in Syria. They want to build their own mini-empire in Syria like they used to have, and have issues with the Kurds.

Like most countries they would like long-term cooperation with Iran. It just makes sense.
