Note that Turkey's PM is from an Islamist party so thus must make these sort of noises for domestic political purposes, but when the domestic runs into the hard wall of bullets, that's pushing a bridge too far.<br /><br />One question is whether Turkey's military would follow an order that basically would put them into direct conflict with Israel. Barry might have feared a coup, but coups actually do happen in Turkey. Ataturk set up the military as the final line of defense of Turkish democracy, and given the danger to Turkish democracy if the Islamists push Turkey into a shooting war with Israel, they might decide that enough is enough.<br /><br />- Badtux the Wincing PenguinBadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.com
