If we ever needed cooler heads to prevail in the Middle East, now is the time.
Here we have right-wingers in Israel and Turkey both taking advantage of the fall-out from the flotilla incident to further rile up the religious extremes of their respective nations.

Netanyahu's Likud Party policies have been disastrous and is pushing Israel to the brink...

PM Edrogan of Turkey has been rolling back and eroding secular traditions in what was once the most Western-friendly country in the region...

They have got to go.

Won't any moderates (let alone liberals!) please stand up and save the Middle East from this suffering and chaos?
