Not a single country is a threat to Israel. Israel is threat to a lot of countries

Hitler didn't stop after Poland.

As far as I know, Hitler did not do his crimes because he tried to stay out of prison. Bibi is much more desparate that Adolf.
You are not wrong though.

Then why are you invading Lebanon, Israel?

Not sure about Syria, but my armchair general knowledge tells me that the Turks will definitely fight back. Hard.

Turkey is a NATO member and their armed forces are using NATO equipment. If Israel attacks Turkey that would trigger article 5 of NATO which would force all of the countries bound by it to declare war on Israel. If they refuse to do so then NATO wouldn't be worth the paper it's written on.

Turkey wouldn’t need any help from NATO to take care of the Zionist military. And if they’d get even the slightest help, then it’d be over even quicker.

Germany for one would be bound by its paraconstitutional Staatsräson to refuse, which would end NATO and give Putin his old empire back on a silver platter.

Nowhere does article 5 state you need to declare war, just to help in a way. Could just be sending money or helmets

Apparently the dumb cunts didn't learn from the two-front war of
their inspirationthe nazis and wanted to try and three- or four-front war.Wataba@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 64d

Syria was doing its own terrible tyranny until pretty recently so Israel previously felt like the country could do its own internal unmitigated violence, and now its trying to trend towards something at least slightly better and they believe an improving Syria is a potential future threat. Turkiye is further away than either Syria or Lebanon, so they need to produce a better "excuse" to start shit there, but attacking Iran with little retaliation has them thinking they can shoot their missile-shots there soon as part of their attempts at broadly-regional dominance.

Keep picking bigger and bigger fights, Cochise

Cochise? What does that mean?
Danarchy@lemmy.nz · 2 pts · 64d
Regional slang, not used a ton anymore, basically means “duder” or bro, most often in a dismissive way. A verbal eye-roll.

Aaah ok. Thanks for the explanation!

Yeah they're never going to stop until they colonize the entire fucking region and leave death and destruction everywhere.

NATO might collapse hopefully when they refuse to help defend Turkey.

They want to invade and genocide Syria in support of the Greater Israel project. And they are now on the outs with Turkey, despite Erdogan kissing their asses earlier in their term. They can't stand any medium-sized regional power within a thousand km of them.

Waiting for Israel to attack turkey and NATO to fall apart when they refuse to do anything against Israel. Do it destroy NATO for the good of the world.
