NATO delivering tanks to Syrian Opposition

Appears this is to have taken place at the Bab el Hawa Border crossing. Obviously impossibly to verify for certain, but it doesn't appear to be military soldiers walking around them.

Are these Russian made Turkish tanks, maybe? They don't look American.

Caught on Tape, NATO tank delivery to terrorist in Syria at the Turkish side of Bab el Hawa crossing between Turkey and Syria. Clear evidence of NATO weapon delivery to terrorists inside Syria.

I really cant see Russia joining the war on Bashar, so I dont think they are Russian tanks unless they have a reliable supplier for parts & service. Why the West is backing these revolutions is beyond me

They look like T-62's to me, possibly a mix of upgraded T-54/55's as well.

Turkey has used US tanks until recently, but they are now starting to build their own.

T-54/55, T-62 and even T-72 varients are fairly cheap and plentiful these days. They are the AK47 of the tank world.

they certainly dont look like the modern tanks that you see the spetznaz using on youtube videos but im no expert. I couldn't see any proof of who or where they came from though, or did I miss something?

so essentially NATO has just given tanks to Gaza.

And I will be the first in line to say "I told you so" to anyone who doubts this, mainly because I'm a prideful bastard

How in the world did you come to the conclusion that these tanks are for Gaza? How are they going to even get there? It's not like you can just drive them across country, unnoticed, whilst the Israelis are not looking!

It won't be directly, of course. They are going to the Syrian rebels, a large many of whom that have already showed difference towards Israel. And you're right about not being able to drive a tank to Gaza, that's why they will show up there piece by piece and assembled in some of the same factories used to build their rockets at.
