 The Israeli offensive "has reached the scale of a crime against humanity," Bulent Gedikli told the Anatolian Agency, slamming the Jewish state also for failing to facilitate access to humanitarian aid for the Palestinians. "The Israeli prime minister too seems to have deserved a pair of shoes to be thrown at him," he said, referring to the incident in Baghdad last month when an Iraqi journalist famously threw his shoes at outgoing U.S. President George W. Bush. The Israeli offensive, which began four days after a visit to Ankara by Olmert, has killed at least 430 Palestinian and wounded more than 2,100 others. A quarter of the dead are civilians, the U.N. estimates |
