take that snake out of action? The Turks themselves seem to be too sluggish for it!I I only hope that our government will be for once showing spine!

Erdogan says 'Israel End Gazas Seige to normalise ties with Turkey?' Anyone spot the deliberate mistake? Any rational thinking person would say 'Erdogan - End Hamas Missile Attacks for good and abolish the Hamas Charter that calls for Israels Destruction to end the Gaza 'Seige' and normalise relations with Turkey' And how is it that every one of so many that I know and meet from Turkey...can see the problem and the solution except....Erdogan Indeed its crazy to think that when its crucial for good Israel Turkey Relations and Rapprochment for stability in an otherwise unstable Middle East for the two Countries after all this time to still not have come to an amicable Agreement? Especially when this doesn't reflect the reality of historic good relations between Jews and the peoples of Israel and Turkey

Now thats what I call chutzpah !!! esp as the Turks will soon run out of nat gas and will turn to Israel for supply !!

The current government of Israel is making a great mistake by negotiating with Erdogan. Handing him his only victory in foreign politics while Erdogan himself is only thinking how he can use this this as a propaganda tool for the forthcoming elections. Political relations between the two countries will not be the same as long as Erdogan is there..

Let's hope that our government will be reasonable and not accept all Turkish humiliating conditions (probably some of them not yet expressed) in order to "normalize" relations with that country at any price.

It's a never ending story. You should never even start with all this crap discussion with Turkeys. They sent terrorists, what is there to talk about?

Not yet, but setting land speed records getting there. On the bright side, the European Union can breathe a deep sigh of relief that at least there is one nearly bankrupt country that they did not accept into their ranks. They've extended membership to all the bankrupt states of Europe, as well as those which are teetering on the verge of bankruptcy. With the serious economic issues facing the European Union, one wonders why they have so much time on their hands to devote to the State of Israel. Nice, too, to know that any boycott of Israel will probably result in the disintegration of the EU -- but no one will ever lose any money betting on the Europeans to do stupid things. Turkey's got about six months to a year before it goes belly up, economically. Faster if they keep on trying to prop up the lira.

mike, country doesnt have any natural gas reserves russia iran azerbaijan are 3 main suppliers of gas when and if israel offers competitive price turkey will be interested

Israel's policies are made in Jerusalem, not Ankara. Tell that excuse for a head of state to go play in the corner. We're not interested. In fact, a really strong message would be to tighten the blockade -- which is both fully legal and internationally recognized. That would be a richly-deserved very obvious slap in the face to that strutting bantam rooster.

this way!!!

Turkey is trying to find a way to come out on top of the political mess they created even before the Marmara incident so that they can get a pipeline from Israel to Europe with natural gas. This would give Turkey much needed cash and a leverage to get the EU off their back. It is also part of the reason that Greek and Turkish Cypru are talking - to get the natural gas.

for "a 100% thorough search and confiscation", which will totally disarm Gaza's Hamas and Gaza's other terrorists and 'irregulars' from within Gaza, as Part One? and Part Two: Erdogan will then apply same to disarm Hezbollah - the "state within a state" - in Lebanon ... ... thereby demonstrating his genuine concern for Israels' safety and security?

Not just by talking abut militaristicly as well. Erdogan should have responded by killing 10 Jews in Turkey for every Turk murdered on that ship. Not only that but Turkiye instead of abolishing Mossad ability to run through Turkiye, Erdogan should allow Mossad agents to enter and then quietly catch them one by one, torture them to death and repeat. All Jew in Turkiye should be marked with electronic tattoo to know where they move and who they talk to. They should be arrested and their propertys confiscated. With Jew, you have to be brutal twice as hard and not show any remorse against this judeo parasitic plague.

Israel should learn to live without Turks when they are tired of their false view they certainly will talk to Israel.

Israel can do without Turkey as can EU and NATO, etc. under Erdigan, Turkey is a lost cause. in time Sharia Law and repressive dictatorship will take hold. good bye Turkey! forgot civil war like in other Moslem States. pity!

"But we do take the compensation your silly PM promised us for our right to send out 'protesters to kill your soldiers".

so far, Israel has taken out 9 illegal Iranian sponsored blockade busters. The tattoos you suggest have already been done by your barbaric nazi cousins. ( electronic or not same ) As Israel thrives, and is growing by leaps and bounds, Turkey's on the verge of bankruptcy due to massive corruption. The Arab Spring, the muslim on muslim wars are just beginning to take their toll as Islam is collapsing under the weight of her own repressive demands, corruption, poverty, lack of education, endless massacres of other muslims... and her insistence that the people do as they say or die and, with help from idiots as you, have a future dismal in comparison to other nations. ( notice how so many illegal aliens head straight for Israel bypassing every near by muslim nation? ) Turkey will drown in her own self made set of sorrows due to her hatred of G-ds Chosen, the Jews. Sad for your nation too bad your ignorance outweighs reason. ISRAEL'S BUSY BUILDING !!!

his over blown ego thinking he can force Israel into changing her legal blockade is nothing short of lunacy.Israel has shown herself more than reasonable but you can't reason with a mad man. KEEP BUILDING !!

Turkey has not been tested on the battlefield since Galipoli -- where they held the high ground. Unless you think that massacring defenseless Armenians and Kurds, or invading defenseless Cyprus, qualifies as being battle-tested, I very strongly urge you to stand down. Israel can destroy Turkey in a matter of minutes. Israel is a nuclear power, remember? And you'd best be really careful about threatening what few Jews remain in Turkey. If anything were to happen to them, Turkey will be in our gunsights. And NATO will not, repeat NOT, come to Turkey's assistance -- treaty or no treaty. You're barely a member of NATO anyway -- Turkey is NATO's bitch; useful only for providing space on which to put NATO bases. It's not exactly as if Turkey is a real member. And don't forget that bases in Azerbaijan and other places are just as useful, in which case, Turkey would instantly lose all the income derived from its NATO bases -- something which Turkey can ill afford, given its rapid decline. Mersin and Iskenderun were once bustling hubs of the shipping and drydocking industries -- both operating at about 10 percent capacity. If Turkey is really nice and well-behaved, Israel just might allow you to purchase natural gas at market rates. If you don't behave, there are plenty of customers lining up to buy natural gas from the Leviathan field, and Turkey can go purchase natural gas from Russia at overinflated rates. We don't care. Once the sick man of Europe, Turkey is now the dying man of Europe. And the Jews will line up to wave good-bye as Turkey passes into oblivion. 'bye. Save your trash talk for your audience of buffoons at the mosque on Friday.

Unfortunately for Turkey, both Russia and Azerbaijan provide natural gas to Turkey at above-market rates. Iran exports substandard natural gas, and gets away with it because no country wants to admit they got rooked by the Iranians. There are, of course, alternatives to below-market Israeli natural gas: can you spell "Akkuyu nuclear power plant?" LOL! (Sorry; couldn't help myself. Mea culpa.) Things aren't going so well, I hear. The new agreement with Russia is going to quadruple the cost and, quite frankly, Turkey doesn't have the foreign cash reserves, or the gold, to meet Russia's demands. No one else is going to help you build a power plant -- so you're stuck with going broke on the Russian plan, or making do with natural gas imports from other countries -- whose below-market rates may be withdrawn. Israel doesn't have to take on worthless charitable causes, you know. You people really need to replace Erdogan. His hubris is going to spell Turkey's demise. He doesn't care -- he's dead man walking. In view of the possibility that reasonable Turks do care -- you had better to something to reign him in. Turkey is in very bad shape -- and you know it.

On the contrary, Gaza has daily supplies of goods. Except goods for building bunkers for missile launchers and items suitable for weapons against Israel. Furthermore, Gaza receives water, electricity and fuel from Israel. Many needy for medical help come to Israel. Erdogan, you are wrong. I hope Turkey will never be a member of the EU! You as an Islamist, stay where you are. rememberamalek.blogspot

If that doesn't work, end Turkey. This will have to be done, sooner or later... All ethnic Turks must go back to Asia where they came from, and take your poopy with you.

We know that you are one of many who think and feel as you do. Your honestly spoken words teaches us exactly why there is an Israel, and why the Jews will fight to keep it forever as the Jewish national homeland. And take my suggestion my friend - ask for help in any psychiatric hospital. Tell them your brain urgently needs an overhaul.

turkey is not nazi germany, why would she treat diffrent to her jewish citizens they are human first i wouldnt generelazie jews if i were you, leads to hatred and bigotry

When turkey ends it's illegal occupation of Cyprus,admits the Armenian massacres in the Second World War and gives the Kurds their freedom Israel will end its siege of Gaza .

erdogan is a an absolute liar and stooge and can go to bloody hell. His corruption is legendary and he belongs in jail even more than morsi. Turks, rise up and throw this bloody traitor to ataturk in jail where he should hang.

who want's to "normalize" relations with erdogan's islamofascist government, while they can not normalize relations with their own people. only bb would pay 20 million dollars to erdogan to push the "like" button.
