| Turkey warns Israel against violating its airspace | ||
| 2009-12-10 | ||
| [Iran Press TV Latest] Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned Israel of strong reaction should the regime violate his country's airspace in an attempt to spy on Iran. In an interview with Egyptian journalist Fahmi Huwaidi, Erdogan said Turkey's response to any Israeli violation would cause an "earthquake" in Israel, the Turkish media reported. His remarks were made after some reports claimed that Israel had violated Turkish airspace in order to spy on Iran. Endogen, however, rejected the reports. "Furthermore, the Israeli's cannot use the relationship they have with us as a card to wage aggression on a third party and expect us to stand neutral or with folded hands," the premier concluded.

| #2 Uuummmm, Mr. Erdogan - if the Juice flew over your country, what makes you think you would know? Unless, as in the case of Syria, they wanted you to know.... |

| #1 To add to Fred's comment - perhaps there's even more going on. Wouldn't the IDF be interested in all possible options - i.e. through Turkey, through Jordan/Iraq, elsewhere? Given that any air attack will eventually be known, what if Israel chooses all of the above? Rather than focus Iran's revenge on a single compliant neighbor, what if all it's neighbors airspace was used? (Bonus points if Afghan airspace is involved) |
