Turkish President Throws Down the Gauntlet to Israel: "Any Attack on Iran and Lebanon Will Be Considered and Attack on Turkey"
FLASH TRAFFIC - URGENT: President Recypt Erdogan of Turkey has just publicly announced to Israel: "Any attack upon Lebanon or Iran will be considered an attack upon Turkey."
His exact, precise words were:
"If Israel doesn't stop playing with fire and creates hurdles for peace process in the region, we will make sure Israel learns a good lesson. Any attack on Lebanon and Iran now will be considered an attack on Turkey."
To put these remarks in context, Erdogan also said:
"On the day of ceasefire, Israel killed hundreds of innocent Lebanese people. Netanyahu is blinded by blood and hatred. If it was not for Pakistan mediating the war between US & Iran, we would have shown Israel it's place."
Turkey has the capability to reach Israel with ballistic missiles. Turkey possesses a large arsenal and is developing advanced, locally produced missiles like the Tayfun (750-1000+ km range) and the projected Cenk (2000 km range), which can directly strike Israeli territory.
Unlike Iran, Turkey also has the ability to launch an actual ground invasion of Israel.
The border of turkey is only 166 miles from border of Israel. MORE
