A committee established by the Israeli government said the country must prepare for a potential war with Turkey, warning the latter's apparent ambitions to restore their Ottoman-era influence will ignite tensions in the region.

The Nagel Committee issued a report on Monday detailing the defence budget and security strategy, where they raised concerns over Turkey’s aspirations and possible future tensions with Israel, according to Israeli media.

The committee said these tensions could escalate into conflict and highlighted the risk of Syrian factions aligning with Turkey and creating further threats to Israel's "security".

"The threat from Syria could evolve into something even more dangerous than the Iranian threat" the report said, adding that Turkish-backed forces could act as proxies.

The report, along with recommendations, was passed on to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defence Minister Israel Katz and far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Monday.

This is theater. The used car salesmen piece of shit erdogan is the zios best friend. I even think a significant chunk of the Turkish public is full of shit. This is not being racist, collaboration with the zios/ NATO helps them like it did the bourgeois of Vichy France collaborating with the nazis.

He literally gave isntrael a second chance and is still making anti-zio speeches like people are stupid and didn't see what he did. There is still hope that the remaining AoR can be victorious but this was definitely a setback.

So the USA is the Fourth Reich and Israel is neoJapan?

And Turkey is fascist Italy, the clownshow of the fascist trio.

Not sure, if I were Israel, that I'd be warning people about making inappropriate appeals to historic borders.
