prime minister the administration of the turkish president to the turkish foreign ministry and they haven't come out with a single word in response to the matter we haven't had any comment not even a no comment from any of these turkish government bodies turkey's prime minister has been quite a vocal supporter of the syrian rebels and he's called for president bashar assad to step down on a number of occasions repeatedly in fact but behind the scenes it's been reported that turkey is one of the main corn jewett for rebel weaponry flowing into syria turkey is an open door policy toward syria which means that from two thousand and eleven there's been some four hundred thousand refugees flooding over the turkish syrian border into southern turkey and it's not just refugees actually we've got opposition figures rebels. getting medical treatment in southern turkey planning operations from turkey even fund raising in turkey so that part of turkey is somewhat of a safe haven a so-called buffer zone for the syrian opposition now we know that the syrian turkish border as a result of that has

turkish population i think there's a big divide between what the turkish people think about this and what the early one government is doing absolutely and actually i would i want to toss k. what would be repercussions of texas possible involvement how for example with the kurdish population here this. well absolutely not only the kurdish population i think the turkish population generally if this were to be confirmed would be quite upset about this and of course we've already seen some massive protests taking place in turkey so i think that the erdogan government is especially on a on a knife edge at this point and and can't really handle much in terms of a political scandal so i think that if it were to be revealed that they were complicit with israel in attacking another muslim nation that would be the type of thing that we might see might actually topple the or one government to overall so i think this is a really precarious situation for turkey at the far right to james corbett and so the colbert report james thank you very much indeed thank you israel's attack on latakia would b

to new first as i think the turkish people are. not in the least they look for people rights their country road to independence and this this means that. you have become puppets of. some states and. therefore this is even enough to be in there so that's where the turkish foreign minister has been quick to dismiss the reports saying that they have no basis in reality critics disagree and say the government may need to get ready for some damage control turkey in israel work together a lot and it's entirely plausible that they would work together turkey didn't even retaliate after nine civilians were killed by israeli commandos and if you look at her the ones track record with the usa it's even more believable he's a puppet of the usa but this is a scandal for the turkish people so of course the government is denying everything . turkey's worries are still rule from two thousand and ten when an aid flotilla heading for gaza was stormed by israeli commandos they boarded a humanitarian aid ship and killed mind turkish civilians and with
