As you all must have heard the statements from head of the states of both countries, Turkey has threatened Israel about challenging it's Gaza Blockade in International court of Justice. Turkey has also threatened Israel that it will send it's navy to the sea and if needed, it will be seen doing some action. Turkish official in an interview to it's national news paper stated that 'Turkish navy will strengthen presence in eastern Mediterranean Sea to stop Israeli 'bullying'.
Things went wrong when nine Turks were killed in an Israeli navy attack on unarmed civilians in a ship (Freedom Flotilla) heading towards Gaza-Palestine. Things were calm until another announcement came up from Turkish Official '' Turkey will send it's navy to escort aid ships to Palestinians in Gaza'
Where would things go if relationship between both the countries remain strained? Will it lead to a military operation or things will settle down like before when the rift between Israel and Turkey was solely a diplomatic one with hefty rhetoric but no real action taken on either side, or standing face to face against Israel might gives other countries of the region a chance to do same?
