Erdogan's AKP throws another tantrum
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's AKP is holding an Iftar (break the fast) dinner in Ankara sometime this month, and they have made a point of telling everyone that Israel (for the third consecutive year) and Syria are not invited.The ruling party has been boycotting Israel for the past few years and excluded Syria from the guest list this year due to tension between Damascus and Ankara over the uprising in the country and Syria’s recent downing of a Turkish plane.I'm sure the Israeli ambassador will be happy to have the night off. At least it won't matter if they make it this Saturday night.
All country's ambassadors except Israel and Syria were invited to the fast-breaking dinner at which Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is expected to give a speech.
The dinner will be held at the AKP's headquarters in Ankara and famous musicians will take the stage, the reports said.

I did not know Israel still HAD an ambassador in Turkey. If so, whatever for? I would appoint a goat to that job just to see Erdogan's head explode.
