Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu

Republican People’s Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu has criticized the government’s policy on Syria, saying that only Israel benefits from the current situation.

This is because a Kurdish state is in the works, Kılıçdaroğlu said. Turkey’s foreign policy has been focused on removing the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from power, without asking what will follow it, he said. “Syria is very important for Russia, too. This was discounted as well,” Kılıçdaroğlu said, adding “our foreign policy has become chaotic.” He accused the government of “play[ing] backgammon on behalf of others,” on the Syria issue. “They don’t know what to do next,” he said.

So once again, everything in this world revolves around Israel! They only wish they had this kind of power. Yeah DANNY B when Assad finally falls it will make the "fall of Saigon" look like a picnic. My heart goes out to all the people living in Syria right now, and we should all be more respectful of their plight. While I don't advocate interference from the outside, I do pray everyday for these people. Very sad.

The massacre of Syrian continues day by day and it will be nothing comparing to the killing that will take place in Syria the day Assad will collapse. The Muslim Allawi minority will be murdered by hundreds of thousands. Frankly, Israel will not interfere unless it will jeopardize its borders and citizen. But where is all the world's sympathy and help? will the international guarantee be same as they given to Israel is they will give back "occupied land". can you believe ? God forbids.

Israel having a mutual border with Syria can only remain quiet and wait who will rule Syria, the choice is between the Devil (Assad) to the Satan (El Quaida). The only difference is that the devil (Assad) Israel know and can handle with it while with Satan who can predict what will happen . One think for sure. the Arabs are killing each other with greater success that Israel did in 65 years of independence. But Israel is blamed in massacre and ethnic cleansing, how nice and easy.

No matter what happen in Syria always Israel is blamed. Israel , a country of 7 million which occupies 0.14 percent if blamed for all the Arab\'s corruption, unemployment, poverty and low income. While Israel in 65 years built a country with hi tech , developed industry and desert farming. while all countries around remain behind. They also blame Israel for massacre of Palestinian while from all over the Arab world they live in the highest standard with occupation or without. occupation.

Wouldn't it be nice now to have the only winner at ones own side? And maybe the Kurds, which you neglected so much for decades, as well?

Whatever the outcome is, Israel will be the only winnar. This scenario which led to destruction, break down of Syria on one side and has damaged the regional cooperation on the other side, was the dream of Israel. Unfortunately, Mr Erdogan;s government has realized this dream for them. Turkey has already lost it's direct neighbours, Iraq, Iran, Libanon and majority of Syrian population. Post-Assad's formula is not predictable. The early sign's are obvious"second Kurdstan" in the region!. Hoera!

Oh yes! And if Israel would still be an ally, there might be two winners now! @ blueBeyond Israel has already dealt with so many devils known or not known (including.......fill in what comes to your mind!), that I am not concerned in any way for her, Obama just about to sign an upgrade of security engagement, while I am concerned highly for Turkey!

Israel should do what is good for its citizen no matter what other say. as a country of 7 million people Surrounded by 1.2 billion hostile Arab & Muslim world must be aware to any change. We notice what happen to Tunisia Libya and the biggest country Egypt who Israel had signed a peace agreement after revolution so called "Arab Spring" the only spring happen is that the fanatic Muslims came to power. this after Israel returned Sinai. And now in Syria after Assad Fanatic Muslims and El Quiaida
