Turkey Promises to Capture Israel's Capital: Jerusalem Post

In recent weeks, Turkey has sought to leverage its connections with foreign media to promote its stance on how it wishes to reshape relations with Israel, despite its own media propagating extremist anti-Israel statements. According to Armenpress, this was reported by the Jerusalem Post.

A commentator from a Turkish media outlet claimed that Turkey could "enter Tel Aviv within 48 hours." He asserted that "the Turks are not like the Arabs," which is a clear reminder of the inability of Arab armies to defeat Israel in 1948 and 1967. Such commentary on Turkish television is not an uncommon phenomenon. Hatred towards Israel, promises to destroy Israel, threats to enter Jerusalem, promises to "liberate Al Aqsa," and the spread of nationalist, anti-Zionist, and anti-Semitic statements are normal occurrences in Turkey, the publication notes.
