History Won’t Forgive ‘Spoiled Child’ Israel, Turkey Says

[Purveyor]

Turkey’s prime minister berated Israel Sunday over its alleged air strike on Syria and likened the government in Jerusalem to a “spoiled child.”

In his first response to last Wednesday’s apparent attack on Syrian targets, which was widely attributed to Israel, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the raid was illegal according to international law.

“Anything could happen in the region,” he told members of the press at Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport. “Those who treated the Israeli government like a spoiled child should know that history will not forgive Israel’s state structure.”

The attack “is unacceptable to us… It is against every international law,” added Erdogan, whose country has been a staunch opponent of the Assad regime throughout a civil war that in two years has claimed the lives of some 60,000 Syrians.

1. Since when is sucking up "staunch opposition"?

Turkey is scared to death this fight will spill over the borders, force the refugees further inland, and give the Kurds delicious opportunities.

So mollifying Assad with a little Israel name calling is a sensible political move.

But it ain't "staunch opposition."

Turkey was in charge in a good portion of the world including then Palestien beginning with the fall of Constantinople in 1453 until a British protectorate was established after WWI.

The Mamluk Sultanate was indirectly created in Egypt as a result of the Seventh Crusade. The Mongol Empire reached Palestine for the first time in 1260, beginning with the Mongol raids into Palestine under Nestorian Christian general Kitbuqa, and reaching an apex at the pivotal Battle of Ain Jalut. In 1486, hostilities broke out between the Mamluks and the Ottoman Turks in a battle for control over western Asia, and the Ottomans captured Palestine in 1516.

In 1830, on the eve of Muhammad Ali's invasion, the Ottoman Porte transferred control of the sanjaks of Jerusalem and Nablus to Abdullah Pasha, the governor of Acre. According to Silverburg, in regional and cultural terms this move was important for creating an Arab Palestine detached from Syria (bilad al-Shams). According to Pappe, it was an attempt to reinforce the Syrian front in face of Muhammad Ali's invasion.[41][42] Two years later, in 1832, Palestine was conquered by Muhammad Ali's Egypt, but in 1840, Britain intervened and returned control of the Levant to the Ottomans in return for further capitulations. The end of the 19th century saw the beginning of Zionist immigration and the Revival of the Hebrew language. The movement was publicly supported by Great Britain during World War I with the Balfour Declaration of 1917.

The British secured Jerusalem in December 1917. The British moved into the Jordan valley in 1918 and a campaign by the Entente into northern Palestine led to victory at Megiddo in September.

The Turkish government is staunchly Islamic and has its own ambitions. Just saying I don't put much stock in the opinion of the Turkish government.
