1. Isn't Erdo helping Assad
Rami ,   Helsinki   (12.22.16)
Tell the sultan to bomb SAA instead of Kurds and then talk business. Assad the Iranian puppet is the biggest danger to both countries.
2. AH! STOLEN OIL ISIS OIL IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE TURKS
IRANIAN JEW ,   LALA LAND   (12.22.16)
Now, they need more incomes like selling drones and Israel's gas. Not to mention the tourist money. I will give it a year until another idiotic move form the Turks takes place. Erdogan is probably thinking of a new one right about now
3. I am wondering if Ambassador Naeh is good in history?
e-nm   (12.22.16)
Turkish history?
Russian history?

And what is the conclusion?
4. Turkey was at times kind to Jews
C   (12.22.16)
those days are over.
the relationship between turkey and israel is at best pragmatic.
it is based on mutual interests.
it is no longer based on strategic interests.
erdogan is an islamist, unlike ataturk.
5. yazidis
marv   (12.22.16)
the yazidis are a good people who bother no one. they have been terribly mistreated, ensllaved, raped, and butchered. israel should take in some as citizens as they would be a good people of the book, and care would turn them into lions for israel.

turkey is a tightrope. however, the best freind issrael has in the middle east is not the egyptians, not the jordanians- it is the kurds. and kurdistan is way overdue and deserving of statehood. A unified kurdistan made up of kurdish homelands in northern iraq, parts of syria and elsewhere made up of 20 milion kurds would make peace in the area possible. obama was dead worng in trying to reconsistute iraq wihich will never work with 3 -4 ethnic religious groups. kurdistan recognition is key. and kurdistan behind and above syria, iraq and even iran would be a blocker from the east which would liberate israel.turkey is a tightrope but kurdistan is more important for israel in the long run.
6. Sorry but when I hear "Allahu Akbar"
BUILD BABY BUILD !!   (12.23.16)
all I can think of is terror and if the same voice is close, "am I packing?"
The Christian population in Iraq is now endangered..
Once 1.2 million reduced to less than 200,000.
Allah Akbar, God is great
Is god great who requires massacres of Muslims, Christians, and Jews?
( or even your wife, sister, aunt, mother via 'honor killings?' )
Not the best PR campaign now, is it?
