Russia has its role to play and it does well - next to Israel Russia is the only country I would fight for since Putinova has Jewish Intelligentia and advisers.
Nonetheless I suspect Russia and Turgay to attack Israel so my choice may be obvious.
I think Russia has better relations with Israel than Turkey.
At least Israel is delivering hundreds of millions worth of surveillance drones for Russian army as we speak - Israeli tech is well known.
Russian support for Iran, Syria, Palestine, Lebanon etc. is IMO mostly just because of trying to fight American influence in area.
Nowadays mostly
inherited position in my opinion;
Stalin supported "creation" of Israel back in the day but when it came clear Israel was partner of USA they had to start supporting the muslim countries there.
But what do I know. International politics is a complicated mess.
Although I'm sure Russia has no plans to attack Israel. If anyone it's the baltic states who are targeted in their missiles.
Biggest threat to Russia is coming from baltic states..... they are small and insignificant but crazy enough to try provoke something, like Georgia.
