ISIS attacked Israell once & immediately APOLOGIZED according to their former Defense Minister Moshe Ya’Alon in April of 2017. Whilst they’ve repeatedly hit Türkiye. See publications; Newsweek, Independent, Haaretz, Middle East Eye, Tony Blair Institute for Global Change..,
Cornicus is a gutless criminal & FOX shouldn’t be giving platforms to Terrrorists spreading propaganda! Israell has done NOTHING for US but cause us problems!!!
The stealth coating on the f35 was invented by a Turk don't ever forget that. What did Israel accomplish? Stealing u.s tax payer funds 😂
If you want Turkey to threaten Greece with war and occupy the rest of Cyprus, then hand over the F-35.
Poor and desperate fox 🦊 needs ratings 😢
United States of Israel
Israel controls USA? No kidding. Fox is platform for Israel First
"israeli source" they are not even trying to hide it
If you sell it to Turkey you might as well sell it to China and Russia and even Iran because this is the countries that will get the tech of it eventually.
A Zionist bot horde inside the comments. 😂😂😂😂😂
The IDF probably assigned all of their agents under this thread. 😂😂😂😂
Let idiot ignoring 1400 islamic bloody years history until today.
History will repeat it self for idiots.
Fox likes to trot out this Conricus fella like it means something. He's just another Israeli stooge spouting the same old garbage, Changing the balance of power in the Middle East, with Israel having lost it's mind is probably a good thing. They need a check.
From the river to the sea, Israel will cease to be 😊
Don't give anything to Erdogan.
Only do what israel says they own us all
Turkey has been NATO's member who literally protects Nate nembers
Some guy is asking for a pie in the face? Give me names, I'll do it.
This will be the final straw. F-35’s to an Islamic Republic is pure suicide.
All such sales should first be approved by the Israeli government
Turkey is an ally—full stop.
Turkey pushes Islam just like Iran need to put all Muslim countries in the same boat no bueno 🇺🇸
Zionist Propaganda
What is this idf guy talking about? Platner for President, Hunter Biden for Vice President, Free Palestine!, Free Gaza!, give turkey nuclear weapon, Communism all over the world, smash and rap woman; what is wrong with that! He must be a "neocon"!
On this one, i am with Mister Conricous, very smart men. Of course it is in the interest of usa to sell stuff but i dont trust turkey either. When Trump is saying he is thankful that Erdogan did not attack Israel, i dont understand him either. USA is dictating the terms. He should be saying he is not amused that turkey did not join epic fury, because they should fight together with usa and israel , if they are a trustful ally
No to Israel…….. Trust nothing the Israelis say……. Lies upon lies
At this point, you might as well hand it directly to Russia and China for reverse engineering.
Why are they acting like Turkiye wasnt one of the founding partners in the F-35 development program until it bought the Russian S-400 system?
The amount of disrespect fox news have for american people is huge .turkey did not attack the uss liberty killing 34 american sailors. Israel did.
Who the F belive the lie of a zionist israeli *****!
Iran didn't killed a US president, Israel did (JFK)!
It's time the world got rid of this banking gang!
Since Israel cannot openly threaten America itself, it is making these threats through Mossad agents in Iran! It has been doing this against Türkiye for 50 years through Greece and Germany (and Europe)!
Turkey is literally a NATO country but Israel decides Turkey bad and all of a sudden Trump and Fox News decide Turkey is full of terrorists🙄 really shows who calls the shots.
Turkey must NEVER 🚫 be able to Purchase F-35'S Fighter Jets!!😳😤👎 VERY DANGEROUS BAD DECISION!!! CONGRESS MUST BLOCK THIS POSSIBILITY!!!
We will never forget Armenia 🇦🇲 Genocide
at this point the US need Rubio. Trump love of Money blinded him to the danger of taking money from Islam and especially Qatar.. he is actually putting the US is Danger.
Total bs…nonsense
Fox News sounds so desperate and pathetic
Time for Israel to develop their own fighter jets. As if they don't have the superior prototypes ready to go
Hopefully congress will stop this f35 insane sale to Trukey !
So the IDF is making Trump aware of the fact that they could take him out of the sky if they felt like it. Message received “greatest ally“.
it would be the same like the US arming Iran in the 1950s, look at the situation now.. its just a matter of time before this will blow up in everyones faces.
🖕🏼Turkey… you ain’t getting my F-35’s
The U. S. does not think and analysis anymore!
Israel always seems to know an awful lot about assassinations. Suuure buddy
Giving the F-35 to an Islamic state is just plane crazy. They should install a destruct ability before they get them. Who will they sell the technology too. Insane
