no apologies for self-defense....

Netanyahu should never have apologized to the islamist Erdogan. Islamists consider apologies a sign of weakness. You should not be compelled to apologize for having defended yourself. Who will apologize and pay reparations to the mentally and bodily wounded IDF-soldiers? In my opinion the whole incident Mavi Marmara was a ploy by Erdogan to expose Israel and cause damage to her reputation.
