Ummm ... better than Israel in flames with all the Hamas rockets they are shooting off over onto Israel.
ACTUALLY, Hamas itself has the power to stop Israel from invading at this moment. If they “go absolutely quiet” and accept the cease fire that Israel did (from Egypt yesterday) ... there would be no flakes in Gaza!
Just one word.....PKK.
Remember the good-old pre-Erdogan days when the military kept Turkey from going off the rails? It seems so long ago.
... that’s ... “no flames in Gaza.”
... :-)
Erdogan. Like he’s got no islamist dog in this fight.
Erdogan cleaned the military out of any dissenters. If there’s another Ataturk in the ranks, he’s a very junior officer.
United Nazis is good for nothing now that those dam@edJooos can defend themselves. Suggest disbanding it.
The UN is both practiced at, and very good at handing out aid donated by the United States while the UN employees demand sex favors from children before handing over the aid.
Hey Muslims - call for more “Blue Helmets”, they will fit in (pun intended) with the native Muslims.
Kinda rough on the boys and small livestock, but what Blue Helmet or Muslim cares about their opinions, anyway.
And where as Nagodre erdogan when Hamas was firing off missiles at Israel. Oh... that’s right, he was doing his toenails and couldn’t be bothered.
This guy can go straight to hell...
That’s about it...
“Erdogan cleaned the military out of any dissenters. If theres another Ataturk in the ranks, hes a very junior officer.”
Obama is well along the way to “fundamentally transforming” the American military.
The UN is only good for what it always has been good for- bashing the U.S. and Israel.
Be very careful how you show your support for Israel ... see this article just posted ...
Israel ambassador to U.S. Jews: Hamas winning war of public opinion
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3181017/posts
NEW YORK — Ambassador Ron Dermer, Israels chief diplomatic representative in the U.S., asked some 700 American Jews on a conference call this week for their help shifting the messaging on Israel. Israel is being routinely portrayed in both conventional and social media as an angry, well-armed giant leaving many innocent victims in its wake during the current crisis with Hamas, Dermer said.
The call was organized by the Jewish Federations of North America, which this week sent federation leaders to visit targeted towns in Israel, and the Jewish Council for Public Affairs. Dermer told his audience that Hamas may be winning the war over public opinion, as Israel is vilified for the civilian casualties its bombs cause in Gaza, while Hamas is not being blamed for instructing Palestinians to stay in their homes even when they have been warned by the IDF that the locations will be bombed imminently.
Hamas is putting its missile batteries and command centers next to schools and hospitals. That is a major war crime. While we are doing everything possible to keep civilians out of harms way, Hamas is trying to put their people into harms way. Gazas interior minister said people should ignore warnings and go back into their homes. We are taking action to minimize to the greatest extent possible number of civilian casualties, they are doing everything to maximize it.

We need to make ABSOLUTELY CLEAR when we talk about and support Israel, that it is NOT engaging in a GENOCIDAL CAMPAIGN against the Palestinian civilians - but that it’s HAMAS who is.
We must be STRONGLY EMPHATIC that Israel does NOT COMMIT WAR CRIMES against Palestinian civilians and explain the ways that Israel goes about avoiding collateral damage, while strongly attacking Hamas and its missiles that are flying into Israel.
If you believe that Israel should commit war crimes and engage in a GENOCIDAL CAMPAIGN against Palestinians — then just SHUT UP! ... because you’re doing Israel no favor with your genocidal talk!
The UN is “ineffective”? The Turkish prime minister is probably right in that assessment, but not for the reasons he cites. The UN is simply incapable of imposing its will on recalcitrant Muslim militants, the major player here in the prolongation of hostilities. The Israelis are willing to call it off, if there is any sign of acceptance by Hamas.
The solidarity of Muslims everywhere is one of the most tenuous of relationships, as they will fall to fighting each others on the most minute of differences and at the least provocation.
Hey, the UN is blaming it all on Israel as well. What more do you want?
I don’t agree with Erdogan on hardly anything, but I have been asking what use the UN is for decades.
What good is the UN if it cannot prevent the Gazans from bombarding Israel with missiles?
What good is the UN for? Not a damn thing except supporting the communists/dictatorships of the world.
