Speaking at the annual business conference sponsored by Globes, Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz lividly criticized Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan for demanding an apology from Israel over the flotilla clash between terror activists and the IDF on the high seas in May 2010.
“Turkey has never apologized for the Genocide in Armenia. Talk about chutzpah? Talking about Turkey demanding an apology from anybody?,” he said, quoted by Israeli media.
He added that Israel’s record is better than that of Turkey and NATO and others when it comes to the ratio of civilians to terrorists who are killed in warfare. Deshowitz declared that "the double standard against Israel" whereby countries are far more guilty of the same charges made against Israel, represents "the depths of international law and the hijacking by the left.”
