THE JERUSALEM POST: As the most recent confrontation with Turkey began to abate, Kadima and opposition leader Tzipi Livni said Thursday that Ankara would have to decide which side to align itself with.
"Every country in the region must decide which side it is on. This goes for Turkey, too," Livni said. "The choice is not between Israel and the Palestinians or the Jews and the Arab but between Israel, the legitimate Palestinian Authority, Egypt, and Jordan and the world of fundamental Islam."
Livni was adamant that Valley of the Wolves, the Turkish TV series depicting Mossad agents as kidnappers and baby-killers, could only serve to incite violence. "Erdogan's words are also very worrying," she said.
"If anyone thinks that games of [musical] chairs are the way to defend Israel's interests ... they are making a strategic mistake," Livni concluded. [Source: The Jerusalem Post] JPost.com Staff | Thursday, January 14, 2010
