Turkish FM Walks Out on Israeli
By Micah Halpern

Tuesday September 20, 2011

I've Been Thinking:

Last night Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu walked out of a UN conference on terror just as Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon stood up to speak.

This was not the first time such an insult occurred. It has become commonplace since last year's flotilla.

Diplomatic relations between Israel and Turkey are worsening.

Yesterday US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with Ahmet Davutoglu. The meeting lasted a full hour. According to sources a significant amount of time was dedicated to Clinton urging Turkey to mend fences with Israel.

The upshot of Clinton's comments was that at this time the region does not need any more conflict.

The argument was hardly convincing for the Turks.
