Well, I was right all along when I was saying ´even the grown ups dont know who to blame, and mix up jews with Israeli government´:

 

Turkish Jewish community concerned

.. various anti-Semitic articles in the conservative daily Vakit, according to the report of daily Milliyet. Hasan Karakaya, a columnist at Vakit, recently wrote: "Jew equals terrorist." 

...The advertisements say "You can´t be Moses´ son" 

..

 various hotels in Antalya for putting up signs that read: "Israeli tourists may not enter."

For some, the correct way to act while the fully equipped army of one nation is deliberately killing civilians of another nation, squeezed in a single and long sieged city,  may be something to be kept quiet about.

 

Whether there are Jewish kids among Turkish students or not, all Turkish students will be taught that the massacre  they are witnessing in Gazza is State terror. The idea is to educate all children to understand what is humanely right or wrong; We do not need clowns who can not stand up against murderous terrorists, if the terrorists happen to be of their own race or religion.

 

History records that Turkish State sided with Jews, when they were oppressed by Inquisition in Spain and by  Nazis in Germany, providing  them  with a safe refuge from State terror. No one should expext anything different, when the oppressed side is called Palestinians.

there are other many hate cartoons made in muslim countries.

 

no where in the world they teach hatred to their children but only in muslim countries.

I agree with you femme, they are writing "with love" on the misilles, a very solid proof of how non-muslims always teach their children to love!

I honestly think a similar sign should appear on UNITED NATIONS entrance, until Israel learns to honor UN resolutions.

Well, I was right all along when I was saying ´even the grown ups dont know who to blame, and mix up jews with Israeli government´:

 

It´s unfortunate.....very.....people don´t seem to differentiate between the acts of a right wing branch of government and the citizens.

 

In the US we have had to put up with the humiliation brought on us by the Bush administration.

 

Thankfully, he´s leaving. The damage his administration has done will take years to undo, and it will take a vigilent and engaged citizenry to really effect a change.

 

It´s NOT Jews, it´s a very right wing branch of the Israeli government. The Israeli peace movement needs support and recognition.

Turkish newspapers todat inform that there are over 2000 civilian Turkish citizens, mostly women and children, trapped under Israeli bombardment in Gazza.

 

If they die there, they will simply be called  "collateral damage".

 I hate to disappoint you Alameda, but I do not think your president- elect shows any flying colors of wisdom, when it comes to Israel.

 

All Americans better learn Hebrew quick, if you want to understand what Obama is really talking about.

on the same sort of theme. I was working in and around the demonstration area at Trafalgar Square yesterday........ some of the protesters had wrapped children in white sheets that had been splattered with red dye ...... I understand the symbolism they were trying to express but I don´t think they took into account what effect it may have on these children, as I would have thought some sort of explanation would have neccessary to enable them to dress their children this way{#lang_emotions_confused}
