As a Jewish supporter Israel I am totally ashamed that my adopted country Israel is so far behind schedule in vigorously recognizing the Armenian genocide. Moreover, it is not directly because of Turkish diplomatic pressure on Israel, but the US (including Obama) so far refrained from using the word...

Turkey is getting ready for the 100th commemoration of the Gallipoli victory of 1915. But this time, the names of the non-Muslim Turkish soldiers who died in combat at this battle, have been removed from the list.

M. Cuban | Why This Tech Bubble is Worse Than the Tech Bubble of 2000 This bubble, if it exists, must be almost exclusively in the domain of the very wealthy investors who directly invest in new tech companies that are not yet public.

the justified fears among Israelis that a two state solution that establishes Palestine as a sovereign country, will mean that all the enemies of Israel in the world will legally bring all their armies and weapons to Palestine and from there within a few hours they can shell every square inch of Is...

HAL10000: although we will know soon, whom do you expect to win the Israeli election and why? Actually I was expecting the left wing party of Herzog/Livni to win, and I was truly surprised when Netanyahu won with a clear margin at the last moment.
