Waiting for Turkey's Apology
(Times of Israel) Gerald M. Steinberg - The Turkish government's forceful response to the killing of five of its citizens in an artillery barrage fired by Syrian government forces is understandable. In the wake of this attack and the swift response, surely the Turkish government will understand and support the Israeli response to far more violent attacks on its civilian population in order to stop the thousands of deadly rocket attacks from Hamas-controlled Gaza. Instead of demanding an apology from Israel for the unfortunate events related to the 2010 "Free Gaza" flotilla, Prime Minister Erdogan might consider apologizing to Israel for his unjustified and vitriolic attacks.
