91. #77 what gratitude?
john ,   Jerusalem   (08.15.06)
israel rushed to help turkey during the earthquake not free out of freienship and humanity but the main reason was pure economic interest as israel was looking at turkey as a main customer for their weapons which anyway prooved to be a big fiasco in the lebanon aggression. further israel had real greed for turkey's water as there where plans to get water by dragging large iceberg like containers of water from turkey to israel
92. #61 Please boycott the EU
Laura ,   London   (08.15.06)
- we've no need for your kind of ignorance - stay out of the Union - we don't want you UNTIL YOU OWN UP TO THE GENOCIDE OF ARMENIANS http://www.armenian-genocide.org/genocide.html - and then you will have nothing to say about Israel
93. We should simply boycott Turkey
Rafi ,   Ra'anana   (08.15.06)
Israelis should boycott Turkey by substituting their vacations to other places. I spent many vacations in Turkey but from now on, I'll never set a foot there.
94. Jerks can be found Everywhere!
Stef ,   Germany   (08.15.06)
...thats a matter of fact. If in germany, turkey, egypt, israel..thats nothing special at all. Sad to see, that people, who want to make their income with the tourist- can't handle their miseducation and lack of information about the war against hisbullah. But- nobody really expected that, did anybody? I share the opion, that Turkish PK are not very reasonable.
95. #71 spend in northern israel
Bob   (08.15.06)
yeah ur right spend in northern israel and i will defenitly spend in south lebanon if not regarding the stupid Olmert Gvt instead of making a so costly war he could have given lebanon shebaa and all of the people will live in peace stupid tactis by ur defence minister and prime minister and our crying baby prime minister US should try to change their allies in Lebanon not this useless gvt so all people in lebanon and israel will have their rights and have PEACE not WAR and destruction for some of Bush's voting purposes let him go and fight iran and finish with it lets see his b*lls
96. This is not Turkey
Ahmet ,   İstanbul, Turkey   (08.15.06)
Do not forget that Turkey was always with Jews, even they were facing Massacre in Spain and during WWII, Turkey took thousands of Jews... Turks don't have (and never had) any problem with Jews but it's a truth that death children images effected Turks opinion on İsraili govt. politics (not Jews... don't miss the difference) This note is unacceptable and do not reflect general Turkish oppinion.
97. I liked the idea I'll put the same sign in front of my store
Ravi ,   Italy   (08.15.06)
98. Errogance does not pay
Elie   (08.15.06)
Israel is so good at making enemies. Yalla it is time to label the Turks as well " Anti Semitic". Your savage actions in LEB and Palestine will never ever bring you peace. Your errogance and military Power (Thanks to the US) will not lead you to Peace. Your hatred of Muslims will not lead you to peace. I am sure the majority of the Muslims do not hate Jews but they hate the barbaric Israeli actions. It is time for you to be humble and to make your neighbors accept you.
99. despicable ravi #97
and why not   (08.15.06)
the insect is from chandigarh india.he does not live in italy.he makes frequent anti semitic posts in haaretz.
100. why go to turkey?
herodotus   (08.15.06)
they are a nation of jew haters.i would never ever go to that country.
101. tugrut shoel --a jew who will not visit you
trevor-roper   (08.15.06)
thanks for your note to my israeli brethren.i would not dream of visiting your country
102. we have no need to exchange insults with turkey
a j p taylor   (08.15.06)
i simply will not forget their anti-semitism and will keep away from their country.when they insult israel they do not understand the immense impact that has on jews world-wide.
103. What is wrong with you people on this forum?
Matt ,   Istanbul   (08.15.06)
The store owner is just protesting the war and is exercising his right on freedom of speech. It is not right to send hatred messages against Turks just because of one or two incidents. You guys must come down to earth and see the pain & suffering Israeli goverment has caused rather than playing the victim.
104. Turkey EU Etc
ricardo   (08.15.06)
Can Manage just fine without Jew Money... Let the Jew Boycott whoever it wishes.
105. to the Italian No,97
Peter ,   USA   (08.15.06)
You do that - put that sign all over your shop...you one sided, ignorant, small minded shopkeeper!
106. Shop in Haifa! (End)
Eli ,   Haifa   (08.15.06)
107. To Matt, Istanbul
Mike ,   UK   (08.15.06)
I think the point here is not freedom of speech..it is the one sided approach that he (and you) take. Why is there never a mention of the Israeli victims killed by Hizbollah rockets (women, children, Arab, Jewish)????? It is just all too fashionable to accuse Israelis of being murderers....Do you know how many muslims (men, women and children) are murdered in Iraq everyday by their "freedom fighting" brethren?????? But I guess its ok for Muslim to kill Muslim....
108. # 98 - Elie
Lauren ,   Israel   (08.15.06)
I think the word you are looking for is "Arrogance", not "Errogance".
109. # 103 - Tell it to Nasrallah, dude!
Lauren ,   Israel   (08.15.06)
Stop whining, we have enough Palestinians doing that already. "The store owner is just protesting the war, blah blah blah....". You are pathetic, just totally pathetic.
110. Turkey sign
Simon Yaffe ,   Manchester, England   (08.15.06)
Let's get a few facts straight here. Firstly, to the ignorant Americans, Turkey is NOT an Arab country. Yes, they are Muslims, but it's a secular state and def not Arab. Secondly, the Turks have always been very friendly towards Israel and vice-versa. I imagine this is just the result of a few inbred peasants, who don't know any better.
111. Truth
Alxa77 ,   Ned   (08.15.06)
The sign tell the truth what de IDF are doing everday. Is not true what we are seeing on tv screens. Real jewish doesn't do that but Israel did it.
112. Foolish Israil
ez ,   Australia   (08.15.06)
Dont you Israeli's worry, Turkey doesnt need your crap, nor your tourist dollars. Stay home in your rocky plain and booring land. We were the only muslim nation allied to you and you fail to see our true value. What Israil is doing is wrong and it is without a doubt state terrorism. US tells Turkey to stay out of Iraq while our soldiers are getting killed by the kurdish terrorists and Israil is given every right to attack. Double standards in same region. I just thank god that we have an army that is even stronger than Israil, so if we ever were attacked, he who does will pay the ultimate price. And all those who accuse Turkey of genocide, try to see both sides of the story not just the Greek and Armenian view, as both countries still have fantasies to try and get land back of Turkey........ to them i say.....good luck, you will need it. Freedom for Palestine!!!!!!
113. To MATT from ISTANBUL
Suzanne   (08.15.06)
Freedom of speech ends where speech of hatred starts. Discriminating people solely because of their nationality is not done. By the way, what are the Turks doing to the Kurds,.. hmmm? What did they do to the Armenians? The Israelis didn't make 1,5 milion people disappear unlike the Turks. Should the Israelis withhold every Turk entering their store, because of what they do to the Kurds and did to the Armenians?
114. To EZ, Australia
Mike ,   UK   (08.15.06)
Hey....the Kurds are FREEDOM FIGHTERS...just like Hizbollah....trying to free their land :-)))
115. What's wrong?
armenian ,   Israeli Occupied USA   (08.15.06)
Butchers greeting butchers...
116. Muslims are pure evil! They are the real killers!
Daisy ,   USA   (08.15.06)
117. # 110 - Simon
Lauren ,   Israel   (08.15.06)
I don't know, Simon. The English spelling on the sign is pretty damn good for "inbred peasants". Hey, we Israelis are arrogant. Turkey is already a "no visit" place, as of this article. Yup, we used to bring those ingrates a lot of business. Used to...not any more. Bye bye you turkeys!
118. # 112 - ezzzzzzzzzzz
Lauren ,   Israel   (08.15.06)
Don't sweat it, mate. Oh by the way, the Palestinians are free! You can all go home now, ya' hear?
119. Normal reaction,everybody see dead children body since last
Alpay Kocmar ,   Istanbul,Turkey   (08.15.06)
1 month on TVs like CNN,BCC chanels.I think Israelis people must think again what are we wrong.This sign isn't good.It's not generaly Turkish people views.But I am sure that there are a lot of people everywhere in the world who thinks like that.
120. Hey Turkey, ur real enemy are the Greeks
John ,   NZ   (08.15.06)
Leave the Jews alone.
