I thought all of this was government posturing? Hmmm maybe those Turkish spokesmen weren't being entirely honest. Ya think?

It's reached the point of no return after Erdogan hugged and kissed up to Ahmedinijad. I'm not sure if Israel should respond or just ignore them though. I don't think it makes much of a difference either way.
