A question circulates the increasingly secluded corridors of the Foreign Ministry headquarters: "How is that the Foreign Ministry failed to learn that Israel would attack Gaza prior to
the operation? If they did know, how would they have reacted towards Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert during his Ankara visit?" This is a real test question for the government. A test
question in the efforts to make Turkey "a solution center" in the Middle East... If the Foreign Ministry really had such a provision, then Turkey would not be seen as a country
that is not aware of anything. As a result this war showed that: - The government, who built its foreign policy strategy on the basis that if a country wants to do anything to do in the
region it should do it with Turkey, had been fooled in front of the whole world. BOTH SIDES FOOL TURKEY Not only Israel, but Hamas who sent 200 rockets into Israel, also fooled Turkey.
They prepared their plans for war as the "peace talks" were underway. And Turkey, who is not aware of these preparations, sent a messages of "don't worry, we are solving
the issues" to the world. This is the "trust gap" that has existed in the Middle East for years. Hamas said "Ok" but still sent missiles into Israel... Israel, paid
a visit to Turkey at the prime minister level and shook hands for "Middle East peace", but later launched a massive attack against Gaza... And now, Iran shouts declarations of
radicalism at every occasion and says "Didn't I tell you so? No peace can be established with these Jews." So, what will Turkey do in these circumstances? JUST AFTER DEFENSE
