31. keep the ambassador waiting!
devy ,   usa   (10.19.09)
All the israeli politicians who have any back bone left , should stay away from this event, as a sign of rejection of the turkish regime, which very soon will resemble the one in Teheran. They must apologise to Israel and the jewish people for their treacherous policies. Meanwhile boycott Turkey! AM ISRAEL CHAY !
32. No. 25
NYC Girl   (10.19.09)
You're absolutely right. And to make it worse, whenever the issue arises, Israel would come down on the side of Turkey for the sake of good relations, knowing damned well what Turkey's culpability was for the Armenian genocide...and they end up getting stabbed in the back anyway.
33. don't boycotte them there r good Turks out there
ghostq   (10.19.09)
who will be offended and they can't stand Edrogan he isn't even Turkish, so take things in the right proportions and give the Turks who support Israel hope. and trust me the don't like the fact Edrogan the $@%@%$ ruin the glorious legacy of Ataturk.
34. the turks are killimh kurds and christains as we speek.
shu ,   london   (10.19.09)
armenia war crime ,we want to talk about that.
35. To Turkman: I agree with you 100% percent
abed alafef ,   israel   (10.19.09)
36. Bring a pair of pigs as a fitting present.

37. #28 is (sadly) right
jerusalem   (10.19.09)
guilt is with backstabbing arabs, and arabs deserve what they done. no need to apologize; other treasonous (perfect example of treason, btw) a** holes like hussein from the McMahon-Hussein correspondence, not to mention arab countries need to do that. dont worry about the regaining part..
38. Two Faces of the Turks
Robert Goldman ,   KFAR SABA, ISRAEL   (10.19.09)
while on one face they bleat like sheep about Gaza on the other face is the deaths grin of Kurd killing over the Iraqi border..... One face says donot hut Hamas. the other face says kill the PPK..... one face says do not pay for Israeli imports to turkey on the other they wish to sue us on a weapons sale they will use to kill kurdish men women and children I'm keeping my tourist dollars in israel and elsewhere..
39. I have had it. They refuse to admit the genocide of 1915 and
Peter ,   Germany   (10.19.09)
refuse to discuss their on-going attack against the Kurds but at the same time they claim they refuse to stand by and be silent regarding "unjustified acts" by others. I have had it with the Turks and my government is going to hear about it!!!
40. erdogan and gul's invitation
alexi   (10.19.09)
they can take their invitation and shove it up their rear ends, these islamic liars and backstabbers. Russian can join them with their doubledealing, lying like they did with the nazis to divide poland. Its the same old soviet with medvedev as their liberal fig leaf without any power . And obama and clinton have the blinders on, being taken to the bank by Putin, a kgb smooth who deals in subterfuge. erdogan berated peres in davos, perhaps a good thing for all the harm peres has caused israe with oslo and his latest, twisting the memory of gandhi for 2 states when he meant arabs go to jordan, originally part of palestine.
41. Turkman from istanbol (shouldn't it be Istanbul)
David Israel ,   NY USA   (10.19.09)
How do you expect the Turkish embassy in Israel will arrest Israeli's in Israel? What gives them ti authority to do that?
42. 11 abed allatef - You are correct but
David Israel ,   NY USA   (10.19.09)
Yes Islamic world can use someone like Ardugan (actually Erdogan) but not the modern state that Ataturkbuilt. Turkey can do and should do without Erdogan. They can have better leaders that would lead them to modern world istead of still middle age Arab world.
43. Turkey facing the truth..
devy ,   usa   (10.19.09)
For centuries the ottomans have been aggressively pursuing and aggressive and bloody imperial policy and perhaps they think that this is the way to start all over again and Israel doesn't fit the bill right now. It's a sad time for Turkey, that they cast aside Ataturk vision of a modern state and go back to a failed past. Europe will never allow them in !!!
