According to publications in the Turkish press, the Israeli-Turkish relations are obviously aggravating recently. Specifically, as noted in an analytical article by "Zaman" Islamist newspaper, one of US influential Jewish organizations - Jewish National Security Institute - has condemned Ankara stand towards the US displayed both in the course of the anti-Iraqi military campaign and the subsequent period. The statement released by the organization emphasized in previous years Jewish organizations had assisted Turks many times, including in lobbying to prevent US recognition of the Armenian genocide. "Until now we did not wish to publicly blame Turkey. We supposed Ankara to settle relations with the US after the war. However, we were wrong in the issue," - the US Jewish community representatives stated.
