1. Why drop scenes?
hakim ,   usa   (10.19.09)
Let the truth be told.. Actual events by actual people, KEEP IT REAL
2. #1, as long as we're 'keeping it real, why not air 'fitna'?
(10.19.09)
3. #1
Eyal ,   USA   (10.19.09)
If this was the truth, than why are so many people in Gaza still alive? Give me one proof HHHHakim? Israel should have wiped all of the Gazan's out, than it would be legitimate to say what you are saying. Let me give you a word of advise; Don't piss off Israel, cause if the Arabs think they can do what they want and get away with it, you have another thing coming. You and your brothers started the war and then lost..hahahah, so why don't you bury yourself in the sand, or all of you would be wiped out B'H. That's the only way peace can be achieved. hahahah
4. Actually....
Eli Freedman ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (10.19.09)
Hakim # 1, You are an actual Moron and Idiot!! And THAT is the TRUTH!!
5. Just curious
Ann   (10.19.09)
If this newstation will ever show a series depicting the countless Jewish infants and small children victimized by Palestinian terrorism.
6. " It's only a love story"
Bernard ,   Brooklyn US   (10.19.09)
Uhm, did I read this correctly? Gursoy claims that THIS is how he and his producers envision a love story?!? I am SURE that cannot POSSIBLY be true for Turkish people. Scenes like this BELONG in a "love story"? Oh PUULLHHHEESE! Show me the "love". Turkish people ought to be ashamed that this is how some of them view "love". LOL! Now THAT is worth raising their voices over, NOT silly "cartoons that should be relegated to the cartoon channel!
7. Turkish TV show is a "love story"
Ger ,   Raanana, Israel`   (10.19.09)
Doesn't every love story have soldiers killing "innocent farmers"? Instead of hugs and kisses, we have bloody massacres. Just a different point of view.
8. Hollywood, please depict the Armenian Holocaust in Turkey
Dan ,   USA   (10.19.09)
9. #2 - nailed it
Eyal ,   USA   (10.19.09)
Fitna is all so true. I agree with you 100%
10. Freedom of Speech?
Jerry ,   Canada   (10.19.09)
Why is Israel complaining about this show? Have they already forgotten about freedom of speech?
11. Tourists Negative Depiction Has Financial Consequences....
David P. ,   Capitola, CA   (10.19.09)
....when the Turkish GDP falls as a result of their 'regrets'
12. NEVER HEARD ANYTHING SO LAME!!
(10.19.09)
"We didn't MEAN to CRITICIZE Israelis"??? Back peddling now??? Tha damage is DONE!
13. EL AL must stop flying to Turkey!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (10.19.09)
Why hasn't the government recalled our ambassador as a precursor to breaking off diplomatic relations? Anyone can see that Turkey is now an hostile state and we cannot allow our people and our aircraft to run this risk of being held hostage or worse!
14. # 10
dan ,   london   (10.19.09)
by your rationale, then there was nothing wrong with Goebels, or the Elders of Zion..nor me if I were stupid enough to suggest that all Canadians are Moose sh&ggers. Zenophobia, Racism...no, it's all freedom of speech, right?
15. hakim, movies are not the truth
AK   (10.19.09)
The rockets shot into Sderot and Ashelon are the truth. Shootings and throwing rocks at the windshields of moving cars is the truth. And if the Turks want the story of real baby killers, why not make the movie about the murder of the Israeli- Jewish pregnant mother and her beautiful four little girls all murdered by the Arabs in cold blood. That would be the real story, not an invention.
16. Jerry, criticism of the show is freedom of speech.
AK   (10.19.09)
Freedom of speech allows us to expose lies as lies, libel as libel and call idiots by their real name.
17. AK - #15
Eyal ,   USA   (10.19.09)
Don't forget the genocide murders of Armenian women and children by the Turks. Talk about the truth. It is in the Muslim society to lie.
18. Who cares about victims of Pal terror?
Miransky ,   Alabama   (10.19.09)
Israeli victims in pizzerias, restaurants, a Seder, on a bus, in the classroom, in a market--who cares? Certainly not the treacherous Turks. The Palestinians have one leader in a business suit--never the mind the one in combat fatigues. If Kurds had committed the sort of atrocities against the Turks that the Palestinians have done to the Israelis, Kurdistan would be no more, and the world would be silent.
19. Do you want to destroy your enemies, provoke them?
e.m.Jordan is Palest ,   sf   (10.19.09)
The state of Israel always have been like bushes in their eyes, the Turkish people since Ata Turk till years ago did not have freedom of speech to expresses their hate to Israel and now this fanatic’s government which is Anti Israelis, for her support and interest in Turkey and Muslims have given freedom to Israeli hater which this freedom and provocation will bring disastrous in to that nation, one more time sympathy to minority Turk whom are educated and will suffer for the stupidest of the rest ,it is what have seen and I was witness in Iran.
20. #1 hakim
Marco ,   Spain   (10.19.09)
Dont worry Hakim, no scenes will be dropped. It just to fool the Zionists using the GOOD COP, BAD COP routine.
21. #10
Marco ,   Spain   (10.19.09)
, When contoversy broke out with regards to 'FITNA', Jewish Zionist idiots On this very site were screeming for freedom of speech. "Its only a movie idiots, learn to live with it." Thats what they said then!
22. Did they add anything about Palestinian child terrorists?
Global Citizen ,   Israel & USA   (10.19.09)
23. I agree...drop some scenes
Noor ,   Palestine   (10.19.09)
Drop the "controversial" scenes and substitute them for scenes showing IDF soldiers bombing public mosques, schools, UN SHELTER BUILDINGS, and ambulances. Expose the way judeo-fascist Israel slaughters non-combatants at free will. Yes, drop those scenes!
24. Kudos to marco and hakim!
Noor ,   Palestine   (10.19.09)
25. AK, while youre at it...
Noor ,   Palestine   (10.19.09)
The beloved Turkish producers can expose the realities of the Irgun and Haganah, who, for the sake sake of history, torched civilian homes with people still inside them, and then burned the ones fleeing those homes. The Turks can expose the Haganah and Irgun, who bayoneted several pregnant palestinian women. Or Begin, who bombed the King David Hotel, slaughtering brits arabs and jews. What about Deir Yassin? 254 bayoneted unarmed men, women and children. This is just a portion of your horrific acts. Allow me to focus on the present?
26. So, Marco.....
Miransky ,   Alabama   (10.19.09)
So, Marco, if Hollywood were to produce a film about the Armenian Holocaust, the Turks would just "learn to live with" it? The Turks would have a national meltdown! You would never hear the end to their moaning and complaining! There is no people more sensitive to real and imagined slights as the Turks. Not even the Jews are so sensitive. The national pride of the Turks is very, very fragile, and with good reason.
27. Turkey
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (10.19.09)
Turkey under Erdagan has decided that Turkey's mid night express,is toward Mecca,not Europe,Turkey is joining the axis of evil,Iran and Syria,Turkey is the only NATO member that allows Iran to ship arms to Hizbulla through it's teritory.
28. # 21
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (10.19.09)
Marco ! # 1 Fitna is True,while this Turkish TV program is a lie, # 2 The government of Holland has no say in the making of Fitna,but try to show a film on Turkish TV about the extermination of the Arminians.
29. typical bigots BS
i ,   jerusalem   (10.19.09)
First you release the offensive libel, and then you offer up the stupidest most insulting apology you can say with a strait face. Love story with a sub track of a hate story. Smooth Turk, really smooth.
30. How about one with turkey army and Armenian or kurds?
smith   (10.19.09)
