Turkish parliament ratifies renewed Israeli relationship

 

Robert Hackwill

 

 

The Turkish parliament has ratified a deal made earlier this year between Turkey and Israel ending their six-year long freeze in relations.

 

Officially referred to as the Mavi Marmara Compensation Bill, it normalises ties that were broken when 10 Turks died after Israeli security forces stormed a ship carrying pro-Palestinian activists in 2010.

 

“I don’t think there will be a problem during the deal’s implementation. Israel is dependent on Turkey’s security. Israel can’t afford to be against Turkey while being in a region surrounded by Arab and Islamic countries,” said the AK party’s Burhan Kuzu.

 

Families of the dead men will receive 20 million dollars, but the deal is also economic, notably the potential restarting of joint energy projects in the Mediterranean.

 

Israel has always insisted the ship, carrying aid for Gaza, was repeatedly warned not to approach Israeli waters, and that its soldiers were attacked upon boarding.

And I suspect that Turkey is dependent on Mosaad for intelligence on insurgents/terrorists in Turkey.

A quid pro quo relationship.

So do you have a link supporting your assertion?

Perhaps most important of all, Israel does not want to be a part of a Russian effort to establish a new alliance in the Middle East that looks to push out the United States.

...


Israel must continue to be cautious in its relations with Turkey and take a respectful, yet wary, approach. Erdogan will continue to support Hamas, and it is doubtful that his intelligence services would agree to renewed links with the Mossad.

suspect - have an idea or impression of the existence, presence, or truth of (something) without certain proof.

But I offer the following from May 2016 - Israeli elite officers are working hard to rebuild Turkish security and seven percent increase in MIT budget in 2016 as well as structural and work force development of MIT are among the measures that have been taken with the consultation of Mossad exports.

No he does not. Just some really weak spin from a well known anti Semitic website.

 Airport security is just the tip of this cooperation between previous economic and military partners.

 

Under the new reconciliation agreement, the Turkish government committed that Hamas will not carry out any terrorist or military activity against Israel from Turkish territory. Turkey has also promised to seek the return of two Israeli citizens and the remains of two soldiers held in the Gaza Strip.

 

In exchange Turkey has waived a demand for the removal of the Israeli blockade on the Gaza Strip, Israel would enable Turkey to set up infrastructure projects in Gaza, including the construction of a hospital, a power station and a desalination facility.

Veterans Today indeed is a notorious antisemitic website. Conspiracy theory specialists, especially ones with a Jewish global control flavor. Wow. Do better. I suspected you were coming from someplace disgusting with your musings, now you have CONFIRMED  it. 

What is it these days with the rise in people coming out of the closet with taking Neo-Nazi rhetoric seriously? My theory is the internet has "normalized" such filth.

Among those who want to turn America from a tolerant democracy to an outpost of hatred is Gordon Duff, editor of the website Veterans Today. While the name, as the ADL notes (in an article not currently available on their site), sounds innocuous, Veterans Today actually,

features anti-Israel and Holocaust denial materials. The site also offers a platform for numerous columnists who promote anti-Semitic 9/11 conspiracy theories, as well as Duff’s own screeds.

Israeli security support at Turkish airports is a fact, not a musing. Israel and Turkey have also recently re-established a trade and security Reconciliation Agreement - where is the Nazi rhetoric?

You sound naziphobic.

Please do not link to that hate speech site. It exists for conspiracy theories and also this website has a policy discouraging promotion of conspiracy theories.

I believe this aggreement will benefit both sides.

and yes, Israel is surrounded by bigot arabs all around and turkey is the only moderate country there with a common history with jews and jews are always thrived under or together Turks throughout history, refer to Sephardic Jews and there are more examples.

 

and, i believe the embargo on Gaza will get softer and even come to an end with this agreement as now turks have the right to bring good, build homes, hospitals, water desalination plants and more to people of Gaza and these will bring more stability to there, hopefully if Israel plays clever of course.

 

and this agreement will bring natural gas from Israel to Turkey. Israel sure needs turks and turks need israelis.

Does anyone remember the whipping scene from Lawrence of Arabia?

Put that together with a rather controversial law that is being mocked by the Swedes and yes, I should say that Israel should put their backs to the wall. Unless they also like that sort of thing, then that's ok.

controversial law? you mean  the request if change to the abuse of minors above 15 years old?

again, that is not a law or law is not changed. Constitutional Court like in any country on earth cannot make law, just approve or deny or send it for a change back to parliament! you dont know that? oh my...

It is just constitutional court wants some changes as they want higher punishment and that is why they send back the law for a  change. and same old law is in effect now until the change and if no changes within 6 months, old law will be back,

 

and Arabian Lawrence, you mean spy of imperial Britain trying to colonize Saudi Arabia? what is the relation?

even birds can laugh at that article. a total nonsense. so turks are building their intelligence with the help of Mossad? hahhass

maybe they asked a help or two from mossad but no intelligence service fully trust each other on earth of course.

Mossad needs to organize itself first i believe.

I think Turkey needs Israel more than Israel needs Turkey.  To anyone keeping tabs on the region it should be evident that the Arab states are rapidly improving relations with Israel. Israel incidentally just signed a large oil and gas exploration deal with Greece. And yes Israel does have anti-terrorism software and missile shield technology to sell, ask the Arabs about that.
