Turkey, once a key ally of Israel before Erdogan took office, is calling on Syria to attack Israel as retaliation for the Israeli pre-emptive bombing of chemical weapons depots in Syria.   ….. You know that neighborhood jackwagon who is always looking to instigate trouble,…. well, that’s Turkey now in Obama’s term(s)….

erdogan-obamaTURKEY – Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu slammed Israel’s alleged strike in Syria, urging Damascus to retaliate, the Hurriyet news agency reported.

“Why didn’t (Bashar) Assad even throw a pebble when Israeli jets were flying over his palace and playing with the dignity of his country?” Davutoglu told reporters Saturday on his way to an international conference on Syria in Munich, which Defense Minister Ehud Barak is also expected to attend.

“Why didn’t the Syrian Army, which has been attacking its own innocent people for 22 months now from the air with jets and by land with tanks and artillery fire, respond to Israel’s operation? Why can’t Assad, who gave order to fire SCUD missiles at Aleppo, do anything against Israel?” Davutoglu added.

The foreign minister suggested there might exist a collaborative conspiracy between Israel and Assad’s regime. “Is there a secret agreement between Assad and Israel? The Assad regime only abuses. Why don’t you use the same power that you use against defenseless women against Israel, which you have seen as an enemy since its foundation,” he said.

The Turkish Minister insisted that Turkey will not stand by as Israel attacks a Muslim country.  (link)
