There were no expulsions. The Arabs ran away from Israel to make way for their Arab brothers to attack Israel. They hoped to return and be able to occupy all Jewish land. The attack failed and the Arabs would like to erase this reality. Each and every attack failed but as you see, even when they fail, Arabs still call it a win. But truth persists, Israel is a reality and time is passing the Palestinians by.

about the establishment of the gorgeous Jewish State of Israel, and how we defeated Arab murderers from our midst. It is not unusual that the Jewish people has been opposed by much of the world - it has happened before and we have prevailed stronger than before. So we really don't care. There are enough people of good will in the world - and we appreciate our mutually beneficial friendships with them. So go back to throwing rocks at the moon and wiping your asses with your hands, whichever backwater country your cave, your 4 barefooted wives, and 25 illiterate children are in. We'll be fine, thank you.

Your ignorant comments about cheap Jews are equivalent to the thinking of ALL arabs walking around with a bomb vest on them delighting in blowing up their own children to kill a few "cheap" Jews

You hoteliers should have thought of that when you hit the streets saying jews were dogs and welcoming erdogan and his palestinnian wife to the airport wildly. Erdogan with his islamic love for hamas, iran and syria is your typical islamic-he lies, is oversensitive and wants everything--he wants israeli knowhow but wants allah to destroy israel. Well, his ally olmert is toast and soon gone and he can go to hell with his wife emine, a liar of huge proportions. Go to iran nd syira an eat shwarma while the generals in Turkey plan to remove you, which they will. No one has ever spat at ataturk as you and gul have.

"Please pay no attention to the Moslem Jew haters who would like to kill you or just see you dead. Please pay no attention to the fact that the Turkish Govenment kisses their butts and hates Jews also, and is willing to do or say anything to get the Europeans to accept them." "Please just come and spend your money BEFORE they kill you. By the way, we hate you too, but we love your tourist dollars more." Well, Israelis are doing the right thing: Go somewhere you aren't hated (tough to find) and by doing so "Vote with your feet." The middle finger to Turkey is all they should see from Israelis.

First, as Arabs ALWAYS fulfill their promises, Turkey should really aware of 300 million coming to visit. Actually 1 million Arabs is enough to turn ANY country into chaos. Second, thank you for describing Jews as poor people. Please don't ask for humanitarian help, and supplies for Pallis anymore. And don't blame Jews that they controlling banks, media, etc. And the last request for WEALTHY ARABS. Start to solve Arabs refugee problem without US, EU, UN, Israel money. 60 YEARS Arab refugees leave in Arab countries?? Disgusting! You are the hypocrites by your nature. Salaam.

Turkey has shown its true colors. Erdogan has fanned the flames of anti-Semitism and Jews in Turkey are in great danger. We all saw the demonstrations against Jews in Ankara! I hope the annual 500,000 annual Israeli "pilgrims" to Antalya will choose a more Jew/Israel friendly place to spend their money!

I am well informed on what Israel's position is and what it is up against- we read, we hear...we are not total idiots in Europe.. you are wrong: the terrorists have been condemned- pleanty of times. People in Switzerland are not afraid to speak up against muslim extremists- and nobody is supporting them- you are dead wrong. People have been speaking up for the civilian deaths in Gaza- by your own admission they are civilians- not ALL of them were terrorists with guns- . the demonstrations were not AGAINST Israel but FOR PEACE- Israel proclaimes of wanting it too- so what is the problem? What did you expect Europe to do: join the war? You always complain about everybody interfering and pressuring Israel.... you cannot have it both ways.

It's because those pariah states & conflicts are not supported by U.S.A. It not their bullets and bombs killing children.----. Come on!

Your words have ZERO credibility in my eyes, Your "peaceful" demos never happened when Israel attacked. Your "peace-lovers" chanting "death to Jews" and burning Israeli flags. Your "pacifists" holding Hezbollah flags. Beside this, some obsessed Swiss as Lisa and others obsessively searching Zionist press in order to give another bite to Israel covering this with "for peace" slogans.

you should be ashamed for following a death cult name islam. islam a real menace to society.

Lisa, You mention Europe is aware of the thousands of rockets that rained on Israel before it was finally provoked into attacking. Please send us some kind of information showing where and when the demonstrations took place in any European city complaining about Hamas's rockets. Anything will do, news articles, websites, etc...Why is it that we never hear about anyone speaking out against these organizations? However, anytime Israel responds to any rocket attacks in anyway, there are mass demonstrations (including many individuals shouting "death to Jews" and carrying Hamas/Hezbollah flags). You do not think it is right for us Jews to assume there must be some antisemitism with this onesidedness??? Seriously? You do not think this situation is a little odd probably indicating some prejudice? - Concerned Jew

#21 from Switzerland We Jews were always isolated so big deal. By the way add Switzerland to the boycott list where synagogues (Geneva) and Yeshivas are still being burnt down and windows smashed. Micronesia is great and a friend.

We see how much you spend on your brothers, the Arabs who sit in refugee camps for 60 years. If this is not immoral enough the reason they surround Israel is gross immorality. From your stance anything humane will seem to you evil.

by the rest of us if it was not armed by the USA But if you want arms then what wrong with everybody having arms. Get the point. Israel whould become Gaza.

How do you know that in rallies for peace in Switzerland, the supposed peace-lovers chanted "death to Jews"? If that's true, well then, it's very grave, and the Swiss "peace lovers" lost all pretense to be neutral in my eyes. But I find it hard to believe, as the Swiss people, including this Lisa, don't strike me as such virulent Israel-haters, but rather moderate and practical people. Do you have concrete evidence of such case? I really hope you are wrong...

Support the homefront by buying vacations in Israel and treating yourselves to a nice stereo, wardrobe, piece of art, whatever. Just spend your money in Israel.

Johanna from Switzerland don't play the "innocent." Calmy Rey the Foreign Minister threw herself into Almajedads arms and is an antisemite. Antisemitism in Switzerland is high. Calmy Rey in fact said she can't rtemain "neutral.:

#68: Swiss (and antisemites) don't want Jews to defend themselves. That is "antisemitic" coming from a country that stole our bank accounts, sent 30,000 refugees back to Germany / Austria and is now in bed with Iran.

Europe is a cultured civilization. The problem is that the ISLAMIC VIRUS in UK, France,Germany is at fault for the anti-semitism. Pinpoint the problem and then get rid of it. Turkey has taken a bad turn. WHO saw this on the horizon?? I also think that moderate arab countries will realize that Iran's followers are not more than an eyesore and a roadblock to progress.

You dont miss Israelis, twit? You miss their money. You have nothing to offer us, turkish delight! you can get that in israel to? I have never had a problem of visiting any other country in the world.

Wakie wakie! Europe is full of neo-Nazi Islamofascists!

we are shaking in our boots

That´s exactly what the Turks have done with the jews and Israelis overnight by trying to lynch basketball players and putting nazi era like banners as "No jews and dogs allowed" in the door of their establishments. The history of local jews have 5 centuries and they have greatly contributed to the country and never caused any internal problems, yet for a single legitimate self defense military operation the people is reacting in a sudden histerical manner. This means that anti-semitism was embedded in their psyche and waiting to burst in the proper time. On the other side we know you have a centuries long "love story" with the arabs...Sad to see how now the arabs are COLONIZING YOU by the way of a backward "religion" absolutely alien to the traditional turkish ethos. The Turkey of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk is dead.

don't want Jews to defend themselves, we just don't want to support it. Anymore than we want to support Hamas.We here in Europe are learning to live together,and we like it.

we aren't enemy with israel and its people. I think Mr erdogan wnted to point out civillian and children death in Gaza. Dropping bombs is not acceptable but chasing terrorists is your right. I donot understand why people from Israel goto antalya why not mersin and surrounding areaswhich is much closer to israel.you think there is only antalya as a touristic destination in turkey.as far as i am concern i haven't seen any antisemitic action against jews in turkey.

Israel and Jewish lobbyists in the US whould lobby to declare the Armenian genocide to be what it was--and stop kissing Turkish you-konw-whats.

"i'm not trying to generalize here but i guess it's true...jews ARE cheap! haha" You are a disgusting person. I hope you enjoy your sad, bigoted existence.

Before closing your mind and start hating everyone, think about yourselves. What you have done in past 41 years to end the occupation and bloodshed? Is it your right to occupy Palestinians? If you do something cruel, of course the world will critize you. And, your verbal attacks to other nations will only drive you to turn into a bunch of narrow minded racists.

Arab tourist are all welcomed they are richer, more crowded in the world and they are our muslim brothers! Therefore a minor increase from Arab countries will be ok.
