At best NATO will ignore what Turkey is doing as long as it does not provoke a major incident.

losing a membership in NATO (along with all the perks it involves) might be used as a prodding stick to get Turkey to back off.

since when do NATO forces fight on Israeli behalf ?

For the moment, Turkey has the initiative, and there's not much Israel can do.

Turkey has ALWAYS had the initiative.
its the only one who's interested in prolonging this useless "conflict" then it already has.
saying it has the initiative is like saying that a man playing racket ball against the wall has the initiative.
its because he's the only one playing.
