Truth hurts.

Maybe Erdogan finally saw the true nature of the Arabs (Syria, Libya, Yemen etc.) and was thinking: damm those Jews are trully more reliable compared to the Arabs. Let's hope and pray that this is genuine and that Erdogan will be able to achieve Shalit's release.

the growth percentage is not the most important in the economics. a growth of what number, you must ask yourself. turkish gpd is about as good as that of holland, a country with 15 mill people. turkey is middle player at best, but not a superpower. but i very much appreciate turkey's intentions to help to free gilad shalit.

we understand you..Relax

Everything is made up, Muslims lie through their teeth.

You don't know the source of the money the Netherlands, and all of Europe..African and other oppressed countries, was established through..Want to know what their gdb...turkey in 1992,has paid all debts(1. world war debt) did not construct anything ready money christine , please, don't fool yourself...

Grow up Muslims and stop behaving like little toddlers. Islam it is not even your religion, it is foreign to you and you are not doing a good job understanding how wicked it is because you cannot read Arabic, it has a different meaning than the translation you're using.

This isn't intended to improve the ties between the people of Turkey and Israel, the aim is to fix the ills between the two governments. Many governments still maintain working relationships despite having populist feuds. Turkey is not and will never be like Arabs, and therefore it is only natural that we maintain a working relationship with Israel. Both sides need one another for many reasons, and both sides lose a heck of a lot otherwise. Hopefully Erdogan can get it through to his kiss azzes at Hamas that this is a good deal.

i do not fool myself , i simply look at the facts.you can check them too. the netherlands have an approximately the same economic power as turkey with 70 mill people. turkey was too a huge empire which oppressed its citizens.for example , read about the arab revolt in palestine of 1834. i do not hate turkey or turkish people. but turkish-ottoman history is full of oppression and murder--armenians, assyrians, the greeks, the kurds. no need to glorify turkey, sorry, ahmet.

#1 Turks are not Arab they are Altaic. #6- I don't know which Koran your reading but the one I have in front of me states that muslims must believe in all books of god including the Torah. I respect and view the jewish peoples as my cousins and yes I am a Turkish muslim. So don't talk about someone elses view about others when you have no clue about my views. #7- Had Turkey been exploiting the jewish peoples it would not have been working together with the jewish peoples for the past 600 years. #19- Marco just have a look at Turkey's Moody's rating. Also compare China's growth rate against its umemployment rate. Anyone who denies Turkey's growing economic and military clout is simply delusional! All Arab and OPEC countries are pouring money into the Turkish economy driving FDI up. The reason why Turkey's official unemployment rate is high is because 50% of the Turkish work force is off the books that is working without paying taxes.

my mother is a Kurd..The odd thing ...All of a handkerchief used by the european..now well as the Kurds...murder..the date should read..Georgian, Abkhazian and Chechen Jews Circassian Albanian Romany Bosnian living in turkey and many more...I remember them .they fled persecution to the Ottomans, the same place..European history is full of the Inquisition, the world wars..Armenians-the nation's most loyal(given such a name in the Ottoman Empire)now the enemy...your masterpiece table of pride..note:they want to come back again..not enough this persecution...They coming for more persecution

I don't really understand what you are saying...but if you are impying that armenians are loyal?! you must be out of your mind! they are the thieves and murderers. they went against their own contry when french attacked Osmanli. you must be dellusional. nobody tryst armenians. ask their neighbours inCaucasus.

it was once...they betrayed for the empty dreams... used for the purposes of russia france england and Germany..Karabakh, the Russian-backed massacres took place..they were used for the purposes of others and still allow they did not themselves...
