    Welcome,

    Just give the Turks money to attack the Byzantines and you're are sorted, you should be able to afford it because the Holy Lands are a rich area and you say you are good allie with the Turks

    Or just leave a succesion of 1 unit armies in Byzantine territory and let your relations drop to abysmal, this might make them attack you
    See the storm set in your eyes
    See the thorn twist in your side
    I'll wait for you

    Sleight of hand and twist of fate
    On a bed of nails she makes me wait
    And I'll wait

    With or without you

    There's always a risk of them attacking you instead of the byzantines, every faction will backstab you eventually.
    When you give them money, you do add the 'attack faction' demand, do you?

    They usually do wait until the demand is nearly expired, they first use all the money you give them. And at about the 14th turn (an attack faction demand usually expires after 15 turns) they either attack you, or betray you and laugh as you gave them some free florins, in which case you should rip their lower jaws of and burn the cities

    Are you playing vanilla? I always hated that about AI, the constant breaking of alliances. Whenever they'd get bored they would up and decide to backstab you. Its the main reason I tried SS; stronger alliances.
