As we embark on our new economic, strategic and military alliance with our Israeli and by extension American friends, we mustn't forget to thank that great visionary Erdogan whose bumbling diplomatic skills coincided with one of the biggest natural gas finds in the region. What a genius!

SpartanGamer...Hahahahahahahahaha.

I don't like man one bit, but we're stck with him for the moment. I think we should back him because he's obviously seen a gap that the Greeks exploited when the Israeli commandos stormed the Turk ship. Relations continue to be rocky between the two countries (though, as a Muslim country, I don't see how Turkey could betray the Palestinians like that - probably says a lot about the Turks), so Christofias has nipped in and, hopefully, between Greece and Cyprus, they can provide whatever the Israelis want without them having to go back to Turkey. Unfortunately, the name of the survival game is all about money and strong allies.

And our principled stance of unconditional support for the Palestinians? What about the hours GR spent in order to convince us that Israel is committing war crimes?
