Hollywood blackout on Israel continues, Jews afraid of truth.
2. turkey? China? Armenia?

Evil people with evil imagination and claim yet have no substance! I met many turkish people who claim that they were the originally from Great China saying Xingjiang was their ancestor land. Ask the natives of today Turkey and the Armenian who are they? Look at them, they resembles Greek, southern European and gypsies. Of course Turkey would never dare to confront Great China herself unless they are behind EU and UN (like during the Korean War 1950-1953 ) For this pattern it was Turkey failed agenda to join EU....an instance Islamic super power .........well the Catholics majority European was so diplomaticcccccc. Can the world ever imagine especially Israel when that happen? Well then......Mv Mavi Marmara.......tomorrow?????? Now the Chinese is no more Kafir to the Turkish... The virus changes its form.......1950-1953 trying to killed the Chinese today they are courting China. So Israel must be on guard always otherwise! Let The Zionist God AI&J bless Israel and ZION (end)

4. 1-Because there are no Jewish bad guys

Jews are always the best people on the planet, you are going to bring up Madoff and others, but I would say 99% of Jews are the best and the most law abiding citizens wherever they are existing
5. Joking?
ugur   (04.08.14)
Not a big fan of Turkish Prime minister but a 6-10 year old boy with Mein Kampf.. Joking?
6. UGUR, great observation.....though

there are always precoces people. The story of Napoleon having read at the age of 8 all the Greek and Romain classics is one ditty, which might explain his attraction for empires building and the whole Greek symbols he left behind. Mind you, the parental as well as the pressure of the external environment might predict the conduct of a child. Who are his parents?!, Napoleon retreated to his isolation forced by the bitting he received from his french student at school, while he was an outsider from Corsica. Now, maybe. But how would you explain that Mr. Krispin turned to Avraham when he was introduced as Aharon. Just for that you may be preplexed of the accuracy of the article.
7. It does not surprised me; Erdogan even looks like Hitler

8. I agree with Ugur, this is ridiculous
Cinar ,   Istanbul, Turkey   (04.08.14)
I had no idea Erdogan was such a brilliant boy that he was reading dense ideological tomes before the age of 10. If he had once in his entire political career indicated any awareness of any school of thought outside of Islam, I'd still think it was unlikely... as it is such a claim is simply ridiculous. Plus, Erdogan grew up in a very impoverished, very backwards neighborhood. The tiny Jewish community we still have in Turkey are all middle class or above, and while not all our minorities go to special minority schools, the ones who attend regular schools go to the nicer ones that Erdogan would have never been able to afford. Between the Erdogan being a child genius nonsense and yNet somehow finding the one Turkish Jew who grew up in Erdogan's miserable, decrepit neighborhood... this piece is simply suspect in its arguments. That being said, unfortunately I'm sure plenty of our shows have anti-Semitic themes in them (turns out people can be anti-Semitic without having read Mein Kampf too)... an intelligent article on anti-Semitism in Turkish media would actually foster discourse and might even bring about some positive change. Such absurd claims as this, with absolutely no attempt to even verify their validity, just reduces this important discussion into biased propaganda that will be immediately dismissed by the very people who need to discuss it most...
