For 10 Years Now Hamas Has Used Turkey as a Base to Operate Against Israel
(Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Nadav Shragai - Turkey collaborates with terror organizations on both the ideological and operational levels. Hamas' Istanbul headquarters has directed hundreds of terror attacks against Israelis and laundered millions of dollars. Some senior Hamas officials operating from Turkey have even been granted Turkish citizenship. Before agreeing to any reconciliation with Turkey, Israel should demand that the Turks first act against the Hamas operatives on their soil and prove that they are preventing them from continuing to act against Israel. Only then will it be worth upgrading relations. The writer, a fellow of the Jerusalem Center, is a veteran Israeli journalist.
