Erdoan warns of war between Israel and Turkey
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoan warned of war between Israel and Turkey in his opening speech to parliament on Tuesday, saying: Israeli leaders, acting with delusion of the promised land and with purely religious fanaticism, will throw their sights on our homeland after Palestine and Lebanon.
Erdoan said the Zionist Greater Israel project includes Turkey and added: “The Netanyahu government harbors illusory ambition, including Anatolia, and pursues a utopia, and it repeatedly reveals these intentions. Since October 7, each development has increased the dimension of this threat a little more.
Underscoring the proximity of the borders between Turkey and Israel, Erdoan suggested that a war was imminent between the two critical allies of the United States in the Middle East: Look, from the Syrian border in the Hatays Yayladagi district, the border Lebanese is 170 kilometers away. by road, and Turkey is only two and a half hours from Lebanon by car… In other words, occupation, terror and aggression are right next to us.
Erdoan made a similar statement last May, saying: “Don't expect Israel to stop in Gaza. If not stopped, this ferocious terrorist state will eventually have designs on Anatolia with the illusion of the promised land.
Erdoan's latest statements come shortly after the Israeli regime launched a ground offensive in Lebanon after killing Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Supported by the United States and NATO, the Israeli government is trying to transform the genocide against Palestinians in Gaza into a regional war against Iran. After Iran fired hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel in retaliation Tuesday night, U.S. and Israeli officials publicly authorized a full-scale attack on Iran.
Combined with Erdoan's announcement last July that Turkey might intervene militarily against Israel, these developments underscore the risk that Israel's US-backed war of aggression could quickly escalate into a conflict that could engulf all the region.
The Turkish ruling class also fears that an Israeli war against neighboring Iran, supported by the United States, could harm its interests. Ankara and Tehran share the fear that an independent Kurdish state, supported by the United States and Israel, could be established in the region. Erdoan expressed these concerns in his speech as follows: We see very clearly how Israel wants to establish small satellite structures in northern Iraq and Syria, using the separatist organization. [PKK/YPG] like a pawn.
Erdoan and the Turkish political elite before him have been complicit in US imperialist aggression in the Middle East for over 30 years, contributing to the dynamics of disintegration in Iraq and Syria and the risk of outbreak of regional war. Erdoan, who supported the 2003 US invasion of Iraq, has sided with the US and Israel since 2011 in the war for regime change in Syria, which aims to topple President Bashar al-Assad, supported by Iran and Hezbollah.
Likewise, Erdoan's statement in his speech that remaining silent, insensitive and even neutral towards Israel amounts, to put it bluntly, to complicity in crime, is an example of utter hypocrisy. Turkey, a NATO member, was complicit in the Israeli genocide in Gaza and, for all its rhetorical criticism, contributed to the escalation of the war.
Although Erdoan has reduced trade with Israel and toughened his rhetoric, US and NATO bases in Türkiye continue to support Israel. Turkey continues to intercede for essential oil deliveries from Azerbaijan to the country. There are even serious suspicions that Turkey continues to trade with Israel through Palestine after the official end of trade with Tel Aviv.
On the one hand, Ankara continues to support Israel's genocidal war and constantly reaffirms its loyalty to the United States and NATO, while on the other it warns against war with Israel and criticizes allies of the United States and NATO for the consequences to which this policy contributes.
At the root of this contradiction is the bourgeoisie's deep-rooted attachment to imperialism. The main fear of the Turkish ruling class, which, far from being able to oppose imperialism, acts as its proxy in the Middle East, is that a revolutionary movement of the working class against imperialism and Zionism will not arise. developed.
Erdoan's speech and the atmosphere of unity that dominated the opening of Parliament reflected the concerns of the ruling elite as a whole. Erdoan thanked the Parliament and the political parties who acted in full unity to defend the Palestinian cause. Devlet Bahceli, Erdoan's fascist ally and leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), exchanged friendly speeches with the leader of the Republican People's Party (CHP) and leaders of the Kurdish Nationalist Party for People's Equality and democracy (DEM Party), that he advocates repression by force.
CHP leader Zgr Zel on Tuesday called for an urgent closed-door parliamentary session following Erdoans' comments on Israel. This is a call for Erdoan to make crucial decisions together, in secret and away from the public.
Explaining that he made the call because of the importance he attaches to the seriousness of the issue, zel said: When the president of the country declares that Israel will attack Turkey from the rostrum of parliament, there is an urgent need for a closed session… where the minutes cannot be published for 10 years. Our friends will work on this issue and make the necessary contacts.
The international community must take action against Israel, Zel said. It was a repetition of Erdoan's words: the international community can no longer remain silent in the face of this Israeli banditry which is setting the entire region on fire. These weak appeals to the imperialist powers of the United States and NATO behind Israeli aggression are another example of the bankruptcy of the bourgeois nationalist perspective.
The expanding war in the Middle East, one front of an expanding global war, is the result of the historical crisis and internal contradictions of the nation-state capitalist system.
War and genocide cannot be stopped by appealing to the Zionist state, the imperialist powers or the international institutions under their control. The way to stop the Israeli genocide in Gaza and its escalation into war in the Middle East is to unite the working class in an anti-war socialist movement to seize power in the Middle East and internationally against Israel. imperialism and its regional proxies.
