What your seeing is basically a process of destabilisation and balkanisation. Every country in the middle east not named Isreal has and is being subjected to it.
In the case of Turkey. Cyprus, Armenia and Kurds have all been supported against Turkey. The greeks and all their unilateral transgressions are supported by the west and at times russia too. Actually quite a few arab nations also support it. The recent transgressions has been over Turkeys maritime rights. Attempting to lock Turkey along her coast line.
The Libya intervention in which Turkey succeeded in stopping a united French/Russian/Greek/Gulf state takeover of Libya. Was enacted to break this plot.
The attempted illegal annexation of Cyprus in 1974 after a decade of greek instigated troubles was also part of this plot. Annex the island, murder the Turks and turn the entire island into a military base for the west. This would have rendered the entire southern cost of Turkey vulnerable and would have given the west including isreal incredible influence in the region. Turks went to war despite being threatened with war by the soviet union, france and england. Turks won. Today you see how cyprus is used against palestine, imagine if they had control of the entire island and they were completely free to do as they please. Arabs in general supported the greeks back then, how stupid. No Turks on that island and its used to completely control the trade in the east med on behalf of isreal and the eu.
Lets move to the armenians, their genocide agenda was about using it as a ploy to demand land in eastern Turkey. Despite being allies with Russia and Iran the west would always support them against Turkey. The recent Karabagh war in which enemies all become friends again fortunately was defeated. Another war in which Turks defeat European Christians. Not that Turks saw it as religious wars, but both the greeks and armenians sure did.
When we come to the Kurds its no secret that extreme left wing marxist terrorist organisation has been used against Turkey by all players not just western including, Russia, Iran, Assad, the gulf states. This is why primarily the Turkish military has intervened into both syria and iraq.
Now i could go on and on. But every single country is facing many plots against her sovereignty in order to destabilise and balkanise her into smaller more easily manageable sections.
When you play the game stupid, you lose completely like saddams iraq, or you lose like ghaddafis libya. This game is going to play out for another 100 years and it will be won or lost at an incremental level. The Palestinians have incrementally been making mistakes, each mistake cost them more and more. Potentially another few mistakes and its gone, finished.
If Turkey is to win in the long run she has to succeed in many places and it will may take up to a 100 years to change the situation in the region. If she fails she may be balkanised in the long run. This is the reality.
When i look at what's happening today in the middle east, to me its just getting started. If the outsider succeeds in the long run, what's happening in Palestine is coming to every Muslim in the region.
