What a washout that would be. As soon as Turkish warships enter Israeli waters, Israel has every right under International law to dispel them from their territory. Turkish warship life expectancy against Israeli F-16s about 1min 45s (flying time).
Turkey would be the aggressor here, NATO common defence pact wouldn't come into play.
This is Turkey just trying to play Billy big balls in the middle east now they know they've no chance of joining the EU"I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win.

Turkey is also a NATO member, Israel is not. The waters off of Gaza are not Israeli.Originally posted by Incognito View Post"A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

The Oslo accords ceded full authority for defence against external threats to Israel, that is what gave Israel authority to exert their control over Palestinian airspace and waters. That is why their Naval blockade has not been ruled illegal by the UN (it has been criticised though).Originally posted by Paddy View Post
NATO's collective defence policy calls on member states to assist when a member is attacked. In this case Turkey would be seen as the aggressor. At least that is what the US would say.
However, they would be the ones flying into most probably one of the top five air defence systems in the world.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostTurkey has 232 F-16s of their own and 116 F35As too.

So that would be Turkey and possibly NATO minus USA vs Israel + USA.Originally posted by Paddy View Post
Germany would also never take part in attack against Israel and in all probability try to defend it instead.
It's more likely the Army in Turkey would remove the PM.Comment
