Israel-Turkey Reconciliation Is Good for America
(New York Post) Benny Avni - Having America's two most powerful regional allies work together, rather than fight each other, is good for everyone. Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf countries are challenged by Shiite Iran and by the Islamic State. Turkey is now joining that alliance. "The Turks reject Iran's aspirations for regional hegemony," Dore Gold, the director general of Israel's Foreign Ministry, told Israel Radio. "It doesn't take a Henry Kissinger" to understand that the agreement "adds to our security and facilitates cooperation in other fields."
