So diplomatic: Turkey demands Israel apologize, pay reparations, give up Gaza blockade
2011-07-20
Minister of Strategic Affairs Moshe Ya'alon said on Wednesday that Turkey's insistence on an Israeli apology for last year's Gaza flotilla raid does not allow reconciliation talk to progress, Israel Radio reported. 

In an interview on the Reshet Bet radio program "This morning", Minister Ya'alon said that Ankara continues to demand an apology, payment of reparations to victims, and the removal of the Gaza blockade, which even the United Nations has authorized as legal.

Israel and Turkey have been holding reconciliation talks for a few weeks trying to end the diplomatic crisis resulting from last year's Gaza flotilla raid.

#8  All I know how to say in Turkish is "another beer, please".

What did you do if there was no one there to buy the first one, Rob?

I wonder, how do you say "apologize to US and then go screw yourself" in Turkish?

#6  Turkey needs to apologize to everybody who ever worked for or had stock in Motorola and Nokia. Reason they protect one of their leading families who robbed both companies. There are World Court, US Court and other court orders on the massive robbery and not a word in over a Decade from the scum in Turkey!

#5  No point in fantasizing overreaching, Scooter.

"Go screw yourselves" in Turkish will suffice.

#3  "...payment of reparations to victims..."?

How about, "...payment of reparations to the armed pirates..."

#2  You castrate their ambassador and send him home. That'll pretty much give Turkey the big old finger.
