Is this just me, or would it be more logical to fly North to Turkey, avoiding Iraq and Syria, then fly over Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan?

Might still be more politics involved in that than I realize but it sounds more efficient.

Aircraft flying to Israel are forbidden Fly over a country that has no foreign relations If Israel Israel and Saudi Arabia have no relations But the Saudis only agreed to Air India Move over them

Makes sense then. I guess that’s why they stick to the water route.
