steve from raleigh   (04.13.13)

Yavan ,   USA   (04.13.13)
It is only the start. They got their appetizer with the regret now they selling it to their Arab muslim brothers. It wont stop here. We will se more actions like that in the near future.
13. Reply #5 Actually they do...lol
On the Balcony ,   Akko/NY/Kyiv   (04.13.13)
Turkey has nothing to be jealous about. As a NATO member they have a security umbrella far greater than that of Israel which relies almost solely on the U.S.. They also have NATO nuclear weapons on their soil.
14. Nos 8, 10 & 11 - MR HAROLD
Son Of Cyrus ,   UK   (04.13.13)
Evidently Mr Harold does not think before he speaks!
15. #13 well said
(04.13.13)
True. As you see, Israel has to defend herself. When Assad threatened Erdogan, he cried to like a little boy, so Obama sent American troops to protect him.
16. I love Turkey.. Unlike israel, Turkery
American Vet   (04.13.13)

Alex ,   Fort Hood, Texas USA   (04.13.13)
You are a true definition of a clueless IDIOT who's knows nothing on the subject matter. It be best if you just leave the decision making to a new generation. Turkey has evolved in to another MUSLIM dictatorship. Speaking of handouts, the so called aid that's is being provided to Israel is spent with companies like Boing, general dynamics, lockheed martin and so on, its being injected right back in to US economy. But clearly you know nothing about that. That's what makes you a clueless IDIOT.
18. #16 Benefits scrounger
(04.13.13)
I guess you are not Armenian, Kurdish, Greek or Cypriot, are you?
19. Algeria has also objected!
Ismail ALjazaeri   (04.13.13)
Algeria is one of the most hostil parties to any inclusion of Israel in the meeting.
20. Nuclear
Ediuard ,   Canada   (04.14.13)
Why are we even bringing this subject Israel never said that they have nuclear weapon Israel does not have nuclear weapon and its very good like this a country like Iran is seeking to have this type of weapon and this is why they ar claiming that Israel is a nuclear power Sorry but base on what exactly????? A crazy guy like vanounou is not exactly a proof I He is a convert to some sect that had and have many spycologique problems He is not exactly a great source
21. enough is enough
Barney ,   USA   (04.14.13)
to hell with them all.
22. #16
Vasos ,   Limassol, Cyprus   (04.14.13)
I guess you are not Cypriot, Bulgarian, Armenian, Greek, Syrian, Israeli or Kurd. Maybe then you would have a different opinion.
23. #13 Nukes on their soil, but not their own
Easy Rider   (04.14.13)
The launch codes are not even in their hands...LOLLLL
24. To: No. 8
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.14.13)
Yep. Since the early 1960s. And we have never used them -- not in 1967, not even in 1973. We could have .... but we didn't. Please do keep that in mind. Jews INVENTED nuclear power. We're pretty good at physics, high temperature chemistry, engineering, math and all that really neat stuff. Judging from your three word post, you have yet to master the English language! Despite being an American. Shameful, really.
25. To: No. 19
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.14.13)
Algeria? Wow! I am so less than impressed. I guess they are just trying to protect themselves against the billions of dollars in claims of illegally expropriated property, businesses and homes that is about to land on their heads from all the Jews who were expelled from Algeria with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Algeria used to have a thriving economy. First, it expelled the Jews. Then, it expelled the French. Now, it is sinking back into the desert. Good riddance. Algeria doesn't matter, and there are a lot of people out there who remember -- with great disgust -- the massacre of twelve innocent French Capuchin monks who did nothing but bring badly-needed medical care to primitive Algeria. You want to watch your step. The next time Algeria gets hit with a huge earthquake, you may just find that help is slow to come.
26. Lesson learned?
Zimbi ,   NJUSA   (04.14.13)
27. NATO SERVES NO PURPOSE-DISMANTLE
Esther ,   Selkirk Canada   (04.14.13)
UNBELIEVEABLE... WHEN TURKS-ARABS CAN'T GET TOGETHER WITH ISRAEL FOR MUTUAL REGIONAL SECURITY ABSOLUTELY IMMATURE... RIDICULOUS YES... I SAID IMMATURE
28. To: No. 13
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.14.13)
Your lack of knowledge on display, yet again. Turkey is nominally a member of NATO in order to give NATO -- and the United States, its driving force -- a particular geographical access. They may have NATO nuclear weapons on their soil, but they have neither access nor control over the weapons. Turkey has been admitted to the top floor, but they haven't been given the keys to the washroom. That's something they'll never have. They're better than halfway to being booted out of NATO, anyway. No one in the West is particularly happy with Turkey's overtures to Iran. And there are plenty of places -- and willing countries in that region -- for NATO to simply boot Turkey. I suspect that if Turkey continues to seek closer ties to Iran, that is precisely what will happen. No shortage of former Soviet republics that are more than happy to pick up the slack. Moreover, I think you would be quite surprised at the content of Israel's arsenal. For every weapon or defense system whose existence Israel releases to the world, there are three or four that no one knows about -- least of all you on your mirpesset.
29. To: No. 16
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.14.13)
Really? Are you quite sure? Because in both Iraq wars, and against Afghanistan, Waziristan, Yemen and Libya, in which all NATO countries participated in combat roles, Turkey begged off, saying it would make them "uncomfortable" to battle fellow Moslems. They cooked and cleaned, and that is ALL they did, while Americans and soldiers from other NATO countries fought and died. Is that your idea of an ally? What are you, an American veterinarian? No, I take that back. You're way too stupid to have gone much beyond high school -- if that.
30. Why buy the cow, the Arab Peace Plan, when the milk is free?
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.14.13)
Arab cooperation with Israel, while Israel builds illegal settlements at a record pace, is counterproductive.
