Jihad Watch has reported extensively on how dangerous Turkey is, and why it should have long ago been thrown out of NATO. The Ankara-DC deal is yet another example of utter naivety of the West, that will backfire in the long run. Islamic supremacists sniff out Western weakness and use it for Sharia expansionism.
“Ankara-DC Menacing Deal: Weapons for Jihad,” by Jose Lev Alvarez Gomez, The Times of Israel, September 24, 2025:
No one is talking about it, but Washington and Ankara are quietly getting cozy again—and they are doing it while Turkey openly embraces Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. For Israel, this is not just bad optics, it is dangerous.
After being kicked out of the F-35 program for buying Russia’s S-400 air defense system, Turkey was supposed to be punished. Instead, Washington is now fast-tracking F-16 Block-70 sales and upgrades to Ankara, while Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is already signaling his interest in adding the American Patriot system to the mix. This is not isolation; it is a reset.
Why the thaw? NATO arithmetic. Turkey finally ratified Sweden’s entry into the alliance, and the payoff was immediate. Washington wants Turkey inside the tent no matter how much Hamas cash flows through Istanbul.
But the bigger secret is this: Turkey hosts American nuclear weapons at Incirlik Air Base. For decades, those warheads have been the insurance policy that keeps Ankara untouchable. No one in Washington dares talk about it, but it is why Turkey is treated as indispensable, even when it plays footsie with Moscow and Hamas.
And make no mistake—Ankara is not hiding its loyalties. Erdoğan has rolled out the red carpet for Hamas leadership, posing for cameras while denouncing Israel. He blasts the Jewish State in every speech, then cashes in NATO chips with Washington the next day….

Turkey, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the 50+ Islamic Countries are Terrorist States of discrimination, violence, and terrorism against Israel, America, and all Non-Muslims as taught in Islam’s Quran(Quran 9:5, 29, 111; 98:6-7, etc.).
Allah’s cursed Islam, a CRIMINAL-TERRORIST ENTERPRISE and a MURDEROUS-DEMONIC CULT OF BELIEVERS, Terrorist Muslim Soldiers for Allah, continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, industrial-scale slavery, human trafficking, intimidation, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, criminality, genocide, victimhood, censorship, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran(Quran 5:14,35; 8:60; 9:41, 88, etc.). Demonic Allah in Quran 5:51 says, “O you who have believed[Muslims], DO NOT TAKE the Jews and the Nasara(Christians) as friends. They are friends to one another. And whoever among you takes them as friends, so surely he is of them. Surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.” See also Quran 2:63-65; 3:115; 4:144; 5:59-60, 82; 7:166; 48:29; 98:6-7.
Muslims are terrorists for Allah. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 says, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” Allah in Quran 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels(Non-Muslims) were your clear enemies.”

Turkeys President believes Jerusalem is his to take, and he is the next ruler of the new Ottoman Empire… Muslims hate Jews and we shouldn’t sell weapons to an enemy of the Israel. God will take away something from the USA

Stupid to do business with those who worship demons and believe it is their *right* to murder, rape and thieve for the demons they worship.
Tony says
President Trump is incompetent by failing to recognize and identify the specific threat that Islam and its Muslims are to Israel, America, and the West. Allah’s ideology in Qur’an 8:39 commands Muslims to fight Non-Muslims until they surrender to Muslim rule and become Muslims when it says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…”
Karen Dowden says
I was about to comment the same thing and I say it all the time. President Trump and his entire administration do not understand Islam AT ALL!!!!! It may be great to want peace and not like war but he is so blind where this issue is concerned and it will come back to bite the US. Wish I knew him personally and could address this. There must be a way to get a hold of someone who will listen. I live in Trinidad so it cannot be me.

Erdogan is an enemy, he wants to establish a caliphate around the world, that means he wants to wipe out all non muslims. It is so stupid to give weapon to Erdogan.
Jack Reynolds says
Given ERDOGAN’S record only a FOOL would trust him.

What the heck is Trump doing? What a mixed bag! I like so much of what he does, then he pulls crap like this that spins your head around, and makes you wonder whose side he is on!!
Karen Dowden says
Refer my reply to Tony’s comment. Trump does not understand Islam and it is very sad. They smile in his face and he feels he has the upper hand. Sad and unless there is an awakening soon, this does not auger well
GE says
Yep.
OLD GUY says
