Hmmm, I'm not sure that the Turkish General Staff (TGS) are too happy about confronting Israel, with whom they have had a close working relationship. Although Erdogan frequently harvests senior TGS who are allegedly 'plotting against the Government', there are some 340 General Officers in total and historically, the TGS prevail, as it is their constitutional duty to uphold the (secular) legacy of Attaturk.
