Reader comment on item: Cyprus on the World Stage
Submitted by Athinagoras (Cyprus), Oct 13, 2011 at 00:56
Dear Dr. Pipes
You specifically mention in your article "AKP led Turkish aggrresion" .
Bearing in mind the previous alliance and cooperation between Israel and Turkey in economic, political and military levels and the dynamic work of the American Jewish lobby which effectively blocked Hellenic and Cypriot interests up until 2003 , I wonder whether this new relation between Israel and Cyprus will last for as long as AKP is ruling Turkey.
Your choice of words is not accidental and needs better clarification.
