Partial Embargo on Weapons Sales to Turkey
2010-04-22
(IsraelNN.com) Israel has decided to reexamine the basis of its military cooperation with Turkey. The reason is the constant anti-Israel rhetoric of Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan.

The Israeli organization of defense exports SIBAT will now consider each Turkish request individually and a decision will be made based on an assessment of a whole range of issues related to the sale of a particular type of technology or weapons to a Muslim country out of concern they may be used against the Jewish State. Israel recently completed a large tank refurbishing deal with Turkey.
Or Israel could just put trackers and engine killers, or programming back doors as appropriate, in everything they sell to the Turks, directly or indirectly. I'm under the impression they did something like that to Syria, which is why the radar, etc. that Syria got from Russia never saw Israel's jets screaming overhead to bomb the nuclear facility North Korea built.
