Does Zionist arrogance know no bounds?

"U.S. President Barack Obama earlier this month reportedly warned Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan that his country's strained ties with Israel and increasing support of Iran could hinder an arms deal between Ankara and Washington. The White House later denied giving Ankara an ultimatum.
However, Washington has also expressed displeasure with Turkey's "no" vote at the United Nations on tough new sanctions against Iran over its nuclear program.
A U.S. Treasury delegation visited Turkey last week with the intention of demanding an end to trade with Iran, but was unsuccessful.
Following Israel's offensive in Gaza, Turkey called off a joint military drill with Israel, and relations were strained further after Israel rebuked the then Turkish envoy over a television show depicting Israeli soldiers as cold-blooded killers.
The most critical blow to Israeli-Turkish relations, however, came this year on May 31, when Israeli commandos raided a Turkish aid convoy trying to break the naval blockade on Gaza, which resulted in the deaths of nine Turkish activists.
Turkey had threatened to cut off diplomatic ties with Israel, and continues to demand an official apology over the raid.

Report: U.S. threatens to shun military drill with Turkey if it bans Israel
Turkish daily Hürriyet reports that the U.S. relayed its position to Ankara after invitations for a joint drill were sent out to several countries, but not to Israel.
By Haaretz Service

The United States has said it will shun a joint military drill with Turkey in October if Israel is barred from participating, Turkish daily Hürriyet reported on Wednesday.
Sources told the newspaper that the U.S. relayed its position to Ankara after invitations for a joint military drill to be held in central Turkey were sent out to several countries, but not to Israel.
The U.S. has pressured Turkey in recent months to ease tensions with Israel, which have been increasingly strained since Israel's three-week-long offensive in the Gaza Strip that began in December 2008 in a effort to stop rocket fire from the territory into bordering Israeli cities.
U.S. President Barack Obama earlier this month reportedly warned Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan that his country's strained ties with Israel and increasing support of Iran could hinder an arms deal between Ankara and Washington. The White House later denied giving Ankara an ultimatum.
