Turkey made a big mistake in 1915 when it entered ww 1 on the side of Germany ,with the hope of enlarging the Empire on the Russian side, beside losing the Empire,Turkey almost lost the main land too,again Turkey is commiting a big mistake by joining the Muslim brothehood,the the Turkish leaders who vent to war in 1915 believed entering the war will benefit Turkey,this is not only Israel,this is also a confrontation with the west,how is this going to benefit Turkey ?.

nine killed terrorists ,btw armed with knives and metal rods prompts ypou to talk of killing dozens ,isn't a dozen 12 and dozens could be any number but 9. and do yourself a favour and google naval blockade you will find out that the boarding of the thug boat was completely legal

rereading your post, made it clear to me that you might be michael but not from san francisco. your english betrays you!

We saw a vessel carrying Turkish jihadis with links to terrorist organizations heading toward Israel. They were some 75 miles away from Israel. The IDF had every right to inspect the ship. Instead, they met by a pre-planned lynch mob fully armed and ready to kill them. All caught on video. Five other ships were boarded and inspected without incident. Erdogan is leading Turkey down the path of destruction just like his buddy Ahmadinejad.

Last week, I saw Erdogan on tv, in the Turkish pariament, standing under a big picture of Ataturk. I just though to myself that Ataturk is rolling in his grave seeing what is happening to the moderate, secular state he established.

I hope you meant that sarcastically.

I received a death threat from a Turk on Facebook and he cursed all of Israel. May be we will learn form the actions of Turkey that they like so many others never were and will never be a real friend of Israel. I have never seen a Jew ever set fire to another countries flag how sad it is to see our Israeli flag being burned in the streets, may they and all non friends of Israel burn in Hell

The "Anitakabir" where Atatruk is burried will be turned into a mosque in the following ten years.. Atatruk was born in Thessalloniki, Greece and he will be reburied there, putting an end to this thing called moslem democracy in Turkey.

Yeah Yilmazlar was suppoed to build the new terminal in Ben Gurion airport... and went bust. Fortunately , an israeli co. picked up the pieces and completed the project two years in delay. So much for Yilmazlar

Economic power????? It`s the economy, stupid! That`s why you need an external enemy NOW! Does it not sound familiar? The Turkish economy has been affected by the global financial crisis with its Finance Ministry reporting that Turkey`s budget deficit swelled to US$ 95 billion in the first half of 2009, 13 times higher than a year earlier. Gross Domestic Product shrank by a record 13.8% in the first quarter between January 1 and March 31, 2009 which The Economist described as "putting Turkey among the economies worst hit by the global recession. Between October 2008 and July 2009, an estimated 1.400,000 Turkish workers lost their jobs. The International Monetary Fund expects the Turkish economy to contract by 9.8% in 2009, compared to the Turkish government estimate of 3.6%. And how can we forget the 520 billion USD deficit. Almost 50% of the Turks that live in Anatolia go to bed starving. Ohh.. by the way... how come no Major newspapers in Turkey report the murder of an 11 years old Kurdish boy by the police in Siirt two days ago. He threw stones at the police car and they just run him over.. Don\t believe me google it. You will find that this kind of murders take place against the kurds everyday.
