DOESN'T ISRAEL REALIZE WHEN A COUNTRY SPITS IN ITS FACE?

Reader comment on item: Futile Israeli Efforts to Win Ankara Back

Submitted by Ilene Richman (United States), Feb 19, 2013 at 09:16

The selling of AWAC's to Turkey, an enemy who tried to send armaments to Hamas, is the dumbest move of Israel. Turkey is an enemy of Israel. This move will come back to bite Israel in its back. Israel should hold its head high and not deal with terrorist countries as Turkey. Turkey is now getting what it deserves from Syria. It has to feed and take care of the Syrian people that have escaped. Turkey is now under a "semi-dictatorship". It is no longer secular but is practicing Islam.

Israel should pick and choose its friends wisely and not send protective weapons to an enemy that tried to harm it. Remember how many Israeli military were hurt by the Turks aboard the boat carrying weapons to Gaza and Hamas. What a stupid and idiotic move by Israel. I would warn Israel, "Do not turn your back as you might have a knife in it".
