Discussion on Turkey and Israel Relations

The other thing I'd like to say, because we're on the verge of the president's

going to Turkey, look, Turkey is a great country, but it's governed by a man who calls openly

for the annihilation of Israel.

He occupies half of Cyprus, a NATO country.

He's threatening Greece, another NATO country.

And he talks openly about conquering Jerusalem.

His foreign minister, his number two, said that the Jewish state has a place among humanity,

and basically it has to be wiped out.

His interior minister, he said he looks forward to be the governor of Jerusalem.

Well, for a regime infected by the Muslim Brotherhood, an extreme movement that hates

America and chants death to America from that side of the spectrum, I don't think they

should be given F-35s or the engines for their fighter jets, because that'll upset the

power balance in the Middle East, which is ultimately guaranteed by Israeli air superiority

and also by, I think, by America's posture in the Middle East.
