Iran is also recommended as second Mediator to Israel Syrian peace talks Iran and Turkey together may better act as mediator and sweep Israel off the map and arrive peace at last.

LONG AGO ! TERRORSIT ISLAMIST CANT MEDIATE - ISRAELI DONT NEED THE TURKS OR THE SYRIANS ! THEY ARE NO MORE OUR FRIENDS !!!

Only a shmuck like olmert could trust erdogan with israel s gvital security interests. Hebrew U may think olmert is talented, yet if he has any, it is in theory. In practise, he is dumb as hell, no insight, and appeases more than chamberlain. His whole family almost all is rife with 2 bit corruption. Only the legal community is still trying to protect him yet he will go down to jail time of at least 5 years. And his twin, livni, another dumb dora will never see the PM's office as she is as stupid as olmert.

Assad can affirm all he wants, but Turkey gave up its role as mediator 2 years ago, and has only been making it worse with sending its political flotilla. As things are progressing we can expect Turkey to be closing its embassy in Tel Aviv soon. And the next one will be in Israel's capital, Jerusalem, or not at all.

recent events have shown that Turkey is no longer a friend to Israel and the trust and faith built up over the years has all but gone. Israel no longer trusts Turkey- an essential ingredient in any such "talks"

It is only fair that Turkey accept that Israel mediate the negotiations with Syria on return of Arab Hatay/Iskandu/Alexandretta stolen by Turkey 80 years ago back to Syria.

Syria has claims to Turkish occupied territory all the way to the Taurus Mountains. Israel should mediate this too.

This has the highest priority in mediation.

from Turkish illegal occupation.

return from the Ottomans illegal rule.

from theft by Turks and the reparations for the genocide committed by Turks on Armenians.

Turkey doesn't need Syria!! Turkey needs to look towards Russia and China for technological/political advancement! Then we will see how the world play's their cards towards Turkey/Turks as a nation! I believe Turkey and Israel can be friends once again. It is possible ;-) However NOT WITH both the Erdogan government and Nethanyahu government. Those two govenments are to blame for the recent descending relationship between Turkey and Israel.

sweet dreams. @ayla never again with israel ironic juctice they deserve arabs

Turkey can no longer be considered to be a viable mediator, it's not Neutral The so-called Freedom Flotilla, was sponsored and instigated by Turkey
