1. the right answer to the sultan....
tomer ,   jerusalem   (05.17.18)
would be :

1) israel recognizes the "armenian genozide" by "ottoman empire (long overdue)
2)cancel tourismn (including flights) to turkey
3)cancel bank transaction turkey-israel and big buisness deals (energy ,military etc)
4)increases support for Kurds
2. pocketbook
ian   (05.17.18)
israelis en mass should cancel their trips to turkey and spend their money in israeli, greece or anywhere else but the land of erdogan. lets see how turkish tour operators feel about cancellations.

moreover, israel shoujld not be sharing any sensitive informtion with turkey as they will simply pass it over to iran0-you dumbells. shteinitz-are you listening.moreover, forget about underwater pipes to turkey- the entire country is unreliable since erdogan too k power.
3. Do not stoop to their level.

Support Israel. I would never visit Turkey. However do not use profanity or treat individual Turks badly. Take the high road.
4. Expel all Turks from Israel
Empress Trudy ,   Raleigh   (05.17.18)
on 12 hrs notice or face arrest
5. Hypocrite of hypocrites
shmulke ,   w. coast USA   (05.17.18)
The spawn of the slaughterers of Armenians claiming Israel is guilty of genocide! Approximately 35,000 Arabs (including terrorists) have been killed by Israel in the past 70 years. In Syria, that's known as a "slow month." Not to mention that ErDOGan's Turkey has bought cheap oil from ISIS, and therefore has helped bankroll the Islamist terrorist gang, and has invaded Syria and helped that country become the cluster**** it is today.
6. They will not listen 2 many Israelis lack national pride
LackOfSelfRespect ,   Jerusalem Israel   (05.17.18)
one of the reasons the Moslem World does not respect us
7. Turkey never was really "tourist friendly " to anyone
StrangeTurkisCulture ,   Jerusalem Israel   (05.17.18)
visiting there a few times I never felt safe or welcome there
was always a feeling that at any time violence of some kind
could erupt. Saturday nights on the main street of Istanbul
would and maybe still does with hundreds of police arriving
in vans with truncheons and just walking the street as a sort
of "presence" and warning . No tourist there would dare
to criticize any aspect of Turkey as you would be accused
of a crime against are you ready "Turkishness" at best
deported at worst interrogated. Beautiful country but not
worth the unfriendly locals or "volcanic" atmosphere
8. Just revisit "Midnight Express" everybody! Why go there
(05.18.18)
in the first place?
We've got tacky, marble-clad, Jacuzzi equipped resorts as well.....
