Prof. Moshe Cohen Elia, a panelist on the popular Israeli TV show "The Patriots", said last night (Sunday) that we may be seeing signs of a third World War about to break out given Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's statement threatening to invade Israel.
"Niall Ferguson, the renowned historian, said that the signs of World War III are a combination of alliances. We see it happening now, North Korea along with Russia, China and Iran - and Turkey is also getting closer to this group. Turkey intends to be part of this system and it is important to open an eye to this country as well," said Prof. Cohen Elia.
Diaspora Minister Amichai Shikli responded in a post he published on his X account in Turkish to Erdogan's threat: "I hear the threats of the pro-Hamas dictator: you are a clown and the Turkish people know it and will send you home faster than you think."
As mentioned, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened to invade Israel: "We will do the same to them, just as we did to Karabakh and Libya, there is no choice," Erdogan said. According to him, "the current administration is leading America to World War 3."
