PM Netanyahu: Investigation must include whole picture (Turkey)
The world needs to know the whole picture and we will ensure that the whole picture is made public.
Address by PM Netanyahu at The Marker Financial Conference Translation (Excerpt) PMO 09/06/2010 www.pmo.gov.il/PMOEng/Communication/PMSpeaks/speechfinancial090610.htm
We meet here every year to talk about Israel's economic policies, and I intend to do so today as well. However, before I speak about the economic policies, I would like to briefly touch on a topic on the international agenda. We are consulting with several figures within the international community regarding the appropriate procedure of inquiry that will corroborate all the facts relating to the Gaza flotilla. We know the truth and the people of Israel know the truth. The Minister of Defense, Ministers, the Chief of Staff and I are prepared to testify and provide all the unembellished facts. But I remain firm to my position that, as always, the IDF will be the only organization to question our soldiers.
This is the custom in our allies' armies and we shall behave in a similar fashion. But I ask that the whole truth come to light, and therefore the inquiry must also include answers to certain questions that many in the international community prefer to ignore.
Who is behind the radical group on the deck of the ship? Who funded its members? How did axes, clubs, knives and other types of cold weapons find their way on to the ship? Why were extremely large sums of money found in the pockets of those people on the deck of the ship? Who was this money intended for? The world needs to know the whole picture and we will ensure that the whole picture is made public.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Now this is good news on a Thursday morning.
Turn the tables - they want an investigation? Use it against them and investigate Eddogan and IHH, because without them, the Flocrapla would never have existed in the first place.
I like it!
Could have sworn I typed “Erdogan” (Eddogan = still not with it this morning)
Anyone with a brain knew that Israel was foolish to trust Turkey.
But Israel’s desire to be “normal” long has them grasping for phantom mirages of peace.
Israel has sacrificed much for the “peace” with Egypt and Jordan. That “peace” with undemocratic Arabs/Muslims is held up by the thin thread of the beating hearts of the current leaders.
When Mubarak and the Heshemites go, and they will, so will that “peace”.
