Chen Segev - MTI Tweeted Mar 10, 2010:

'Demonstrations continued in #Istanbul against the visit of President @Isaac_Herzog. The Star of David was painted on some of the signs with a swastika on it.'

_

From the photos, at the predominantly Arab attendees, it looks like the identical themed signs with equal "comparisons" attempts to other events, are all organized showing a "Palestinian" group's propaganda, rather than a spontaneous one.
In addition, on a large banner, appeared the violent Marmara, the infamous May 2010, flotilla posing as "peaceful".

Yaakov Lappin, "Gaza flotilla: Go back to Auschwitz", Jerusalem Post, June 5, 2010.

Organizer tells Gaza crowd: Everything is heading towards Islam.

Radio messages sent from the Turkish Gaza flotilla to the Navy contained chilling anti-Semitic abuse, the IDF revealed on Friday when it released audio recordings of communications with the vessels.

"You are approaching an area which is under a naval blockade," a Navy radio operator said in a message broadcast to six ships taking part in the flotilla as they sailed on the Mediterranean Sea towards Gaza.

"Shut up. Go back to Auschwitz," a male voice said in reply. The message was broadcast to the Navy from one of the flotilla ships, the IDF confirmed on Saturday.
"We're helping the Arabs go against the US, don't forget 9/11 guys", a man said later on during the radio exchange.

The IDF Spokesman's Unit, which made the recording available on its official website, said the transmisisons were originally thought to have originated from the large Mavi Marmara ship, but could have also come from one of the accompanying vessels in the flotilla."The Israeli Navy ship attempts to make contact with the 'Defne Y'[one of the vessels in the flotilla] on channel 1-6. Other ships from the flotilla respond on the channel, without identifying themselves," the IDF said on Saturday. IHH head praised martyrdom in Gaza

Meanwhile, the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) has released footage of statements made by Bulent Yildirim, head of the Turkish radical Islamist IHH organization, which organized last week's flotilla.
Yildirim, who delivered a fiery speech in Gaza in February 2009 filled with references to "martyrdom," addressed his listeners as the "people of paradise.""Raise your fists to the skies and repeat after me: What can the enemydo to me? I carry paradise in my heart... If they kill me – that is martyrdom for the sake of Allah. Allah Akbar," he said."
Last night, everything in the world has changed, and everything is progressing towards Islam," Yildirim added "Anyone who does not stand alongside Palestine – his throne will be toppled," he continued."All the peoples of the Islamic world would want a leader like [Turkish prime minister] Recep Tayyip Erdogan," Yildirim declared during the speech.Last week, another video taken from the Marmara ship was released by the IDF Spokesman's Unit, in which a passenger was heard passionately discussing his desire to "be martyred." "When I went on the first convoy, I wanted to be a shahid (martyr), the man says in the video. "I wasn't that lucky. "Second time, I wanted to be a shahid. Didn't work. Third time lucky, with the help of God, I will be a shahid."

"IDF clarifies: 'Go back to Auschwitz' recording edited, but authentic", Haaretz, Jun. 6, 2010.

According to IDF clarification, it is not clear who is speaking on recording that was originally publicized as recording of Mavi Marmara passengers.

Special - Walla! With the forces of the flotilla in the middle of the sea

"Captain, at the entrance to Gaza you are endangering your crew," the Navy ship declared. "Return to Auschwitz," replied one of the flotilla ships. Walla! Joshua Brainer made the night of the takeover with the naval forces in the middle of the sea

Joshua Brainer with IDF forces at sea, Walla!, 31/05/2010

Already at the beginning of the night it was clear that a violent confrontation is only a matter of time (Photo: Reuters)

At first the feeling was that this was a great commotion over no flotilla. The port of Haifa is almost emptied of its military ships, all for one humanitarian flotilla, which, according to its organizers, wants to transfer wheelchairs to Gaza. At 9:15 a.m., the Victory Brigade missile ship leaves for the heart of the sea, another of the many corps ships whose job it is to stop the flotilla from making its way to the Gaza Strip. The Gaza Strip has been declared a battle zone, "Navy skippers repeated dozens of times," Captain, at this entrance you are endangering your crew and passengers and you alone will be responsible for the results. "On the open frequency, all flotilla ships could hear the warnings. "Go back to Auschwitz," one ship replied, another replied in "Jihad, jihad, jihad." The violent encounter was inevitable.

A few hundred meters away, Achi sailed from the ship Marmara. The time for action was set at four and a quarter in the morning. At a distance of 80 miles from the shores of Haifa, a decision was made to take over. It started.
But then it started to get quiet, followed by a few shouts and it was already clear that something was not going well.
