Looks like Obama is going full retard for Israel now, threatening a NATO ally to change its position on non-NATO ally, Israel, and Iran, or we won't sell them weapons or consider them an ally in the future. Remember, we have no treaty of any sort with Israel...

Washington was deeply frustrated when Turkey voted against United Nations sanctions on Iran in June.

When the leaders met later that month at the G20 summit in Toronto, Mr Obama told Mr Erdogan that the Turks had failed to act as an ally in the UN vote. He also called on Ankara to cool its rhetoric about an Israeli raid that killed nine Turks on a flotilla bearing aid for Gaza.

While the two men have subsequently sought to co-operate over Iraq’s efforts to patch together a coalition government, the US makes clear its warning still stands.

“They need to show that they take seriously American national security interests,” said the administration official, adding that Washington was looking at Turkish conduct and would then assess if there were “sufficient efforts that we can go forward with their request”.

Is it new policy that you have to unwaveringly support Israel if you're going to be an ally of the US?

Turkish boat tried to send food to children and women in Gaza, so they earned this threat from Obama.
