No. Your country is. Over a million Armenians, massacred, thanks to Turkey. Tens of thousands of Greek Cypriots, massacred, thanks to Turkey. Hundreds of thousands of innocent Kurdish civilians, massacred, thanks to Turkey. You are the blight upon humanity.

I don't think the refusal of aids is about politics. Turkey offered help to Japan for earthquake but it was refused politely. Does Japan leaders hate Turkey, is it why they refused our aid. I just Don't think so. As i read on a paper only 2 countries help were accepted, Azerbaijan And Pakistan, the officers says it is because these two countries have sent the aid, without offering. And as it would not be right to refuse an aid that is allready on the way. If they had offered it before they were sent, ı am sure they would also be refused. There are some people around here who try to show Turkey not willing to help its people in quare zone, just because they are majorly Kurdish. Its a big lie. Everybody from All over the country are willing to help those people in the province of Van. Lastly, i'd like to Thank personally to Israel, As their offer was a great show of friendship. thank you all people..

It really pains me to know that good people like you (and I'm sure many other Turks) have to suffer because of the massive ego and mis-directed hatred of Prime Minister Erdogan. Hopefully, his foolishness won't stand in the way of getting the help that Turkey needs during the disaster.

Thanks for acknowledging our help, I agree politics should be put aside, just like with helping us bringing back Gilad Shalit, thanks.

only two countries did not call to send aid but directly sent aid to Turkey. Those were Azerbaycan and Pakistan. those are the real helpers.

1- Turkey, just like Italy in the last earthquake, politely said no to international help offers. Turkey, just like Italy, has enough capabilities to handle this disaster on its own. The only help accepted is from Azerbaijan because Azerbaijan is our brothers, Azerbaijan has many citizens in Van, and it is very close to Van. 2- As for your Kurdish issue assumption, it is wrong and ugly. No one ever mentioned this in Turkey. Also, Ercis is almost all Turkish populated town, it is a historical Turkish town. There are Kurdish villages and Kurdish population spread around Van, but this doesn't make Van a Kurdish city. Have you already ethnically cleansed non-Kurdish people from the southeast Turkey in your minds?! 3- As for Kurds, 6 out of 9 people who were killed by Israel on IHH flotilla were Kurds. IHH is formed by Kurds. There is a terrorist Kurdish Hizballah group in Turkey, as well as Kurdish PKK terrorists. Why don't you go and show your love to those Kurds?! Almost all of Erdogan's ministers are Kurds. Erdogan's largest vote support group is Kurds. Turkey's top business groups and entertainment industries are owned by Kurds. You are spreading misinformation and disinformation, and displaying your racism and ignorance.

Let me see if I have this right. Israel was supposed to send its aid first, and ask permission for its airplanes to enter Turkish air space later. Is that what you are saying?

In this circumstances, no politics should be played.We are one human being with different religion or colour,and in this terrible disasters all human being should UNITE TOGETHER AS ONE FAMILY.

but honesty still behind alot :) give it time and see many of you will be war mongering, nuking cities etc etc some of you talking without logic like this is humanitarian matter just tell me please whenever it wasnt? you guys are the ones cheering on killing 10 people now talking about human lifes and so forth turkey should get foreing aid if she needs more than enough offer is on table why would she accept your help? and if iam not wrong or (not seen many times) you always brag about your helps :)

Hopefully one day Israel & Turkey will be friends.Israel and the Israeli nation dont have any problems with the Turkish nation,the only problem is Erdogan & co.
