Turkey being a nato country, would invoke article 5. Would love to see how the US would try to wiggle itself out of that one. Either they protect their ally, or nato completely falls apart.

    Does NATO fall apart? Or does everyone in NATO already understand that Israel’s special relationship gives them precedence?

        Actually, I guess it might collapse the Ukrainian front. Ukraine has been fooled into seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, where they push out Russia and are able to join NATO and become Western. If Turkey was expelled, the promise of NATO membership becomes worthless.

        The core members know that they’re part of the One Map and so have nothing to fear, but Ukraine isn’t part of that umbrella.
