Why does Turkey seek apology from Israel?
Image by Walters Art Museum Illuminated Manuscripts
Early 20th century (probably Gruel); tooled leather over squared wooden boards; five brass bosses on each cover; slightly raised endbands. The pastedowns are fragments from University of Chicago, Regenstein Library, Cod. 138, and are fourteenth century.
This manuscript is of interest for the history of Greek handwriting, because it presents a remarkably early example of a less formal, cursive script used for copying books (rather than just documents). The miniature at the beginning of the volume dates from ca. 1150 and must have been added as late as 1920-1930 in order to raise the book’s selling price. It is rather damaged, but has the advantage of exposing the preliminary drawing which guided the painter at the final stages of his work.
Question by Tom Carter: Why does Turkey seek apology from Israel?
It is almost three years that Turkey has been seeking apology from Israel. Back in 2009, Israel killed nine Turks on a boat that was carrying humanitarian help to Palestine (per Turkey). That made Turkey raise uproar and asked Israel to apology. Is it normal to ask or demand apology for nine people, when Turkey massacred millions of Armenians back in 19th and 20 th centuries. It is Turkey’s turn to apology to those people who suffered genocide.

Because they shouldnt have to apologize for defending themselves, if chanting on the boat death to israel here comes mohammad’s army is peaceful and the humanitarian aid is expired medicine then they should apologize, in reality its not and turkey should apologize for allowing a boat out simply to break a legal blockade for political purposes…..

Because Turkey, like every Islamic nation, is egomaniac.
