What is Israel’s “surprise war”? Is that statement directed at Türkiye?

What is Israel’s “surprise war”? Is that statement directed at Türkiye?
What is Israel’s “surprise war”? Is that statement directed at Türkiye?

Israeli Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir says: “We are preparing for a surprise war. We must be on alert on all fronts.” After the genocide in Gaza, it is not hard to guess what kinds of madness they may turn to next. Do not think of Israel as a “state”; think of it as an ideological, racist “organization.” Then try to imagine what such a structure—run by deviant gangs and hostile to humanity—might do, and what it could drag the world into.

SYRIA OR TÜRKİYE? OR BOTH AT THE SAME TIME?

So who will this “surprise war” be against? Syria? Iraq or Iran? The occupation of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula? Or striking certain locations inside Türkiye to drag the entire region into war?

All are possible. Israel is preparing conspiracies to force the US and Europe into a major war. It has done so before.

Like September 11, like the invasion of Iraq, like the invasion of Afghanistan. But this time, it may carry out an attack that triggers outrage and suddenly pulls many countries into war.

ISRAEL’S DISMEMBERMENT OF SYRIA MEANS ISRAEL’S PRESENCE ON OUR SOUTHERN BORDER.

The first anniversary of the fall of the Baath regime in Syria is being marked. The Syrian people reached today by paying an extremely heavy price. But Israel is trying every possible way to achieve a “fragmented Syria.” It is not even trying to hide this plan.

It is carving off parts of the country through the Druze. It is seizing some regions through direct occupation. It is trying to prevent internal stabilization by indirectly manipulating remnants of the old Baath structure.

Most importantly, it is keeping one-third of the country under occupation through the YPG. Acting in direct coordination with Israel, the YPG is the greatest threat to Syria’s territorial integrity.

It is refusing to honor the deadline given until the end of 2025, dragging its feet under Israeli prompting, and in reality preparing to start a new war.

So what will Türkiye say to Israel’s dismemberment of Syria? Will it be left alone with the YPG? Will it accept Israel right on its border?

THIS WOULD BE SUICIDE FOR TÜRKİYE! FOR ISRAEL, THE PRIMARY FEAR IS TÜRKİYE!

Everyone knows this would be suicide for Türkiye. And such a thing can never be allowed.

A new Syrian war triggered by Israel through the YPG would not only destabilize Syria, it would mark the beginning of a new confrontation with Türkiye. Efforts toward a “terror-free Türkiye” would be sabotaged, leading to the eruption of a major crisis encompassing both Türkiye and Syria.

What we are talking about is, in fact, a Turkish–Israeli war. Israel’s entire priority is built on weakening Türkiye’s hand in Syria and the region. Because from this point on, for them, the primary fear is Türkiye—and they say this openly themselves.

THE YPG’S POWER IS EXAGGERATED. THE DEADLINE IS ENDING. EVERYONE IS STRENGTHENING THEIR FRONT.

Meanwhile, exaggerated figures are being used regarding the YPG’s strength. Claims such as a “100,000-strong army,” along with US support and Israeli partnership, are being marketed as fear-inducing narratives. Yet everyone knows such power does not exist.

As the deadline given to the YPG is about to expire, the entire region has suddenly become active. Türkiye continues its reinforcements in Syria. The Damascus administration is massing forces in the area. The YPG, under Israeli prompting, is setting aside “peace” and making preparations for war.

At the moment, everyone is preparing for an extraordinary situation. Judging by all these preparations, it seems the Syrian administration and Türkiye are moving further away from resolving the YPG issue through peace and reconciliation. Because the Israel-centered mobilization points in that direction.

THE ERDOĞAN–ABDI MEETING LIE! TÜRKİYE WILL NOT SWALLOW THIS SCENARIO. STATE-TO-STATE CONTACT DECEPTION…

A narrative is being manufactured in which YPG- and Israel-aligned circles in Türkiye are spreading the lie that President Erdoğan will meet Mazlum Abdi—at precisely this moment.

Allegedly such a meeting is supposed to happen, and Ahmad al-Sharaa is trying to prevent it. Those making this claim are pushing an absurd scenario in which Türkiye turns its back on Syria and enters into a partnership with the YPG.

Through a scenario designed to suddenly elevate the YPG to the status of a state and Mazlum Abdi to that of a head of state, an image of “state-to-state representation” is being projected in order to instantly turn the YPG into an “international actor.”

Of course, there is a very active circle inside Türkiye trying to sell this. But it is impossible for a tradition that has shaped history in this geography for a thousand years to digest this or fail to see through this game.

ISRAEL AND THE YPG WILL ATTACK SYRIA SIMULTANEOUSLY…THIS IS HOW A TURKISH–ISRAELI WAR WILL BEGIN.

This is one scenario: The YPG, relying on US and Israeli support, will shut the door to a solution. Israel will mobilize both the Druze and the YPG at the same time. It will then directly attack Syria and Damascus.

The fuse will be lit for a major war that will set Syria ablaze. While Israeli air power bombs Syria, its ground forces will advance toward Damascus. The YPG’s ground force will move from the northeast.

Türkiye will suddenly find itself inside the war and will launch a major operation against the YPG. From that point on, no one will have the luxury of being distracted by “terror-free Türkiye” initiatives. This scenario will mark the starting date of a Turkish–Israeli war.

TÜRKİYE WILL TAKE DAMASCUS UNDER PROTECTION. SO WHY IS ISRAEL COMMITTING SUICIDE?

From that moment on, events will move very quickly—where Israel strikes inside Türkiye, how Türkiye sets Tel Aviv ablaze, how the Eastern Mediterranean turns into a ring of fire. An atmosphere will form where blows cannot be counted.

Let’s be clear: this is the scenario Israel has in mind. But why would it attempt such suicide? Not because it trusts its own strength, but because it plans to drag the US directly into the war, line it up against Türkiye, and pull Europe in behind it. This is Israel’s core planning regarding a Turkish–Israeli war.

It is clear Israel cannot withstand Türkiye. It does not possess such military power. Türkiye taking Damascus under protection and advancing to Israel’s borders via Syria becomes highly likely.

Note this: as Israel prepares to attack Syria and the YPG abandons peace to prepare for war, extremely harsh statements began coming from Greece. Greek Defense Minister Dendias’ outrageous remarks about arming the islands with missiles and closing the Aegean Sea to Türkiye came precisely at this moment.

SOFTEN TÜRKİYE, INTIMIDATE SYRIA. BUY TIME—IF NOT, TRIGGER WAR!

A stage has been set based on “softening Türkiye and intimidating Syria.” While the Israel-backed Druze uprising is being fed as a side element, the main scenario is being structured through the YPG.

If we think of the YPG only as an organization, we cannot fully grasp the prepared scenario. But when we consider the YPG as an element of Israel’s Syria priorities, the picture becomes clear.

It is impossible for Türkiye and Israel to reconcile on the Eastern Mediterranean and Syria. All efforts in that direction will fail. Even advising this is part of traditional tactics aimed at buying time and distracting Türkiye. The movement on the ground and the predictable balance of power indicate that both countries are resolutely preparing for war.

WILL TÜRKİYE DESCEND INTO THE GOLAN, OR WILL ISRAEL REACH THE BORDER? THIS IS WHAT THE YPG RIDDLE LOOKS LIKE!

As the Turkish Armed Forces continue deployments into Syria, the Syrian administration has also begun reinforcements in the Deir ez-Zor region. Israel, meanwhile, is pulling the YPG away from the table and pushing it into a war posture. The time Türkiye has given the YPG is running out.

It is claimed that Arab tribes in the region have reached an agreement with the Syrian administration.

Do these preparations—pointing to military intervention in YPG-held areas—give an exact timeline for a war that would also include Israel? We do not yet know. But Türkiye will sooner or later find Israel in front of it—not only in Damascus and the Golan, but in Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa, and along Türkiye’s borders.

GREECE AND THE GREEK CYPRIOT ADMINISTRATION HAVE BECOME ISRAEL’S YPGs!

Is it only in Syria? In the Greek Cypriot Administration, in the Eastern Mediterranean, and on the Aegean islands, a Turkish–Israeli front will also be formed.

In such a crisis, whatever role the YPG plays, whatever functions it assumes, Greece and the Greek Cypriot side will assume the same roles. Israel has effectively assigned “a terrorist organization role” to Greece and the Greek Cypriot side.

The YPG will become the victim of a large game. It is not possible for the US to openly stand against Türkiye. Israel will use its air power, but this will not be enough to protect the YPG. Buying time and leaning on Israel will result in the YPG’s destruction.

TÜRKİYE STANDS AT THE GATES OF JERUSALEM “WE SAID WE WOULD RETURN.”

There is only one way to save the entire geography from such a terrifying scenario: the US restraining Israel, and Israel accepting Türkiye’s power and kneeling. Otherwise, Türkiye will show Israel that its regional role—as a “20th-century garrison”—is over.

Then, while they dream of the YPG, of reaching Türkiye’s borders, of occupying Damascus, Türkiye may stand at the gates of Jerusalem. When we list the extraordinary turns history has offered us, this almost becomes ordinary.

They have a clear objective—and so do we. After all, we were already there 108 years ago. We will return. This is the destiny of this geography. Attempting to stop Türkiye with the YPG is a method only the unhinged would resort to. If they looked at the last thousand years, history would tell them everything.
