Well, since Turkey has thus far managed to avoid apologizing for the Armenian genocide and for the massacre of thousands of defenseless Kurdish women and children, I suspect the answer would be "no."

David, it seems that you have not read the news in detail Our jets have already kicked away the Israeli jet. Also, I see that you are full of hate against Turkey and Turkish people. I'm trying to understand why you are such a sworn & big enemy of Turkey, a "hain". I'm starting to think that you have got what you have deserved. You know, without Kanuni Sultan Suleyman, you probably never be born at all. So you, too, read some history.

But that's to be expected from the newest extremist Islamic hell-hole in the Middle East!

So, not Turkey but illegally occupied Cyprus...that's the complaint?

even the best technology needs to be examined from time to time. viva Israel

its clearly beyond erdogan now, i dont see any reason for mending relationship in future after erdogan, turkey doesnt need israel and i dont think israel needs turkey if anything more confrontations should be expected which will put as some commentators here says armies into test ;) best action here is to avoid unnecessary situations such as the case in this article

You yell out "terrorist" when you hear a Muslim name. You are a brainless racist. First learn to read and write and start to move your brain muscles.

TURKEY CAN GO TO HELL.

How dis these places become Ottoman Provinces? Didn't Turks come from Central Asia after the Chinese built the great wall to protect themselves from being constantly attacked by their western Uighur (Turk) neighbors? Turks were at first mercenaries for Arab tribes that were constantly fighting each other. Eventually they formed the Selcuk rule over Armenian and Kurd land expanding west kicking the Greeks out of their homeland in Ephesus, Dydmus, Troia, Smyrna, Magnesia, Pergamum, Constantinople etc. And with their Imperials dreams all the way to the doors of Vienna. Maybe it is time to give the lands occupied by Turks back to their original owners, Greeks, Armenians Kurds etc. After all you believe that imperialism s bad right?

Mehmet bay, the Ottoman Empire is dead & buried for long time. Make more Turkish delight I love them

MEHMET GET THIS INTO YOUR BRAIN ISRAEL IS NOT FRIGHTENED OF ANY COUNTRY OR ANYBODY. I HOPE TURKEY IS ON THE DOWNGRADE AS A COUNTRY WITH FINANCIAL PROBLEMS. AMEN

You wrote You yell out "terrorist" when you hear a Muslim name. I don't believe this is a correct statement but here is an unpleasant fact about Turkey: Today many Turkish Jews are giving their children Turkish names rather than Jewish names - as it is customary - so that they can disguise their Jewish identity and avoid persecution. Joseph is Yusuf, Shalom is Selim, David is Davut etc. And even this is not enough to protect them from persecution since we have seen the brutal murder of Jewish dentist Yasef Yahya by ultra religious Turks. Ahmet; When it comes to racism, xenophobia Turkey and Arab states come on top of the list. The only country in the world where a religious group was burned is in Turkey Sivas Madimak Hotel (Alevis burned by Sunnis) .And AKP delayed prosecuting the case until they could walk away free.

don't read labels well. pffffffff

this mad islamist, who lies through his teeth was the guy that the prince of haaretz olmert used as his trusted lieutenant to cede the golan. For that alone, olmert beloings in jail, aside from his secretaries zaken and risbi. and don't worry- he is headed there and if not then israel legally is finished. erdogan may be obama's pet but he is poison to israel. They invaded cyprus tearing half of it away from greece illegally. Nothing good can come from erdogan.

With economic backbone breaking, aged NATO, will soon become balanced by growing SCO if India Pak join the later. Little Israel will have to beg for an aiding patron!

One Turkish Marvi Mamara for maybe, just maybe some IAF planes overflying what the Turks claim is theirs I wonder how the Turks are enjoying it now when the shoe is on the other foot

They couldn't even identify the aircraft - even if it was a jet, so just how close could they have been to do that 50-60 kilometers away? The only reason Turkey still has an air farce is because their pilots are smarter than you and stay away from real combat pilots.

something can come out of erdogan, guest what? Poison turkish coffee

#24 Is your hand invisible? #31 I'm the Lion tamer the whipping master not the apologizing slave. I'm not a masochist. If apology needed, I know the right place for it in the downtown.

You're the type that will drag your fellow countrymen into a stupid war where you all will die - FOR NOTHING! Major confrontation with Israel will easily become EXISTENTIAL for Israel. What's that mean, stupid??!! What happens next, stupid??!!! Boy...you people have a death wish! Un-phucken-believable!

If you have balls be on the next Mavi Mammara, bunch of Turkish Terrorists.

Guess who is staying home this weekend for NATO summit? Also we Turks are so scared of jews and our legs already started shaking? Reading comments coming from dillussional teenagers shows you people deserve every bit of what is coming your way...I pray for uyou and your souls...

For those who say Turkey has no rights over Cyprus I direct your attention to the last paragraph of Article IV of the Treaty of Guarantee between Turkey, Greece, Cyprus and the United Kingdom. Turkey has never backed down from protecting its borders. It went to the brink of war with a fellow NATO ally Greece over Imia/Kardak it will surely do the same with Israel, perhaps with some Pakistani backing as it is now dealing with a nuclear power.

Turkey is indeed in NATO therefore has the US controlled radar in Kureck with the purpose of protecting Israel against an Iranian attack. Many Turks consider this being the puppet of USA. On the other hand Israel, while not a member of NATO, has close and beneficial relations with NATO. A good example s the radar in Kureck right? And on top of it not being part of NATO Israel can exercise independent foreign and military policy. In fact many Turks even say that USA is the puppet of Israel (Not that t is true...but just another Turkish conspiracy theory)

Existential for Israel. Good. Then you'll cease to exist.

Real combat pilot? Which combat?

Which combat? you asked. IAF had successful experiences defeating Egypt, Syria, destroyer the nuclear facilities in Osirak raq and more recently n Syria using the Turkish air space. The last experience of Turkish Air Force against a military (not the poorly armed PKK) was when n 1974 Cyprus invasion they shot their own navy destroyer which was rescued by an Israeli navy ship that received the thanks of then Turkish PM Bulent Ecevit.

Many Nation have tried to kill all the Jews, but still the Jews exist now and will exist for ever. Our Father in Heaven is protecting us from evil nations like Islam.

Pakistan will not dare REPEAT will not dare to use her nuclear. If they are stupid let them use and can be sure there will be no more Islamic or Muslims, or Arabs. 1.6 billion of you will be on Bar BE CUE.
