PLEASE SEE THIS: http://gaia.world-television.com/wef/worldeconomicforum_annualmeeting2009/ "Gaza: The Case for Middle East Peace " You will see that Peres speaks frome 00:39:50 - 01:00:00: Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan clashed with Shimon Peres, whose voice had risen as he made an impassioned defence of Israel's actions, jabbing his finger.

Mr Erdogan said Mr Peres had spoken so loudly to conceal his "guilt".

He accused the moderator of not allowing him to speak and said he did not think he would return to Davos.

The Turkish PM stressed later that he had left the debate not because of his disagreements with Mr Peres but because he had been given much less time to speak than the Israeli leader.

Turkey is one of the few Muslim countries to have dealings with Israel, but relations have been under strain since the Islamist-rooted AK Party was elected to power in 2002.

Late on Thursday, a WEF official said that Mr Peres and Mr Erdogan had spoken by mobile telephone, and both men now considered the matter closed.

Dinner time

In the debate, Mr Erdogan was cut off as he attempted to reply to Mr Peres.




Many of the casualties in Gaza have been children, doctors say

Earlier the Turkish Prime Minister had made an address himself, describing Gaza as an "open-air prison".

When the audience applauded Mr Peres, he said: "I find it very sad that people applaud what you said. You killed people. And I think that it is very wrong."

The moderator, Washington Post columnist David Ignatius, had given him a minute to reply, then asked him to finish, saying that people needed to go to dinner.

"I do not think I will be coming back to Davos after this because you do not let me speak," Mr Erdogan shouted before marching off the stage in front of Mr Peres, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and an elite audience of ministers and international officials.

  • @BunnysSwedishWinter WERE YOU THERE? WHAT WAS IT LIKE?

    Grow up.

    If we all decided to fight the ancient wars of our ancestors, there'd be whole lot of death and it wouldn't stop.

    What, are you trying to extract a price?

    Stop killing CIVILIANS. They are guilty OF NOTHING. The babies you kill OWE YOU NOTHING!

    By the way, I am British. And you are FAR beyond the Balfour Declaration.

    GET BACK TO YOUR BORDER, you inhumane zionist little bitch!

  • If the Islamic countries really cared about the Palestinians they would help invest in their infastructure, manufacturing, economy and skills, not just drown them with weapons and unaccountable bandit mercenaries. If you accept the 7th century ideology of Islam then you also have to acknowledge the far older one that was its inspiration and gave birth to it. You can’t have it both ways. Istanbul used to be Christian; in fact most Islamic territory used to be Christian. Get over it.

    My Israeli-Jewish father fought the Nazis in North Africa as part of the British Desert Rats to help liberate your country from them, amongst others nations.

    If he were alive today and saw your comments here I am certain that he also would be very ashamed of how indoctrinated and militantly left-wing and pro-baby-killer Europe has become. I guess we will both have to live with our relatives degrees of shame.

    What about you???

    I hate Israel - Syria's Rebuke

  • My grandfather risked hi's life and his family, helpeing the jew famillies to escape from Denmark to Sweden during WW2. His died as a proud old honest man. I have inherited his magnanimity. I know that if he were alive today and saw this people's behavior, he would be ashamed and I'm quite sure it applies to all the Danes and other folks who helped Jewish people escape death concentration tenants.

    Turkish and Palestinian people have my full sympathy.

  • @BlackRoof

    YOU ROCK DUDE!!! keep bashing the Truth in the face of these zionist ZOMBIEs!!!

  • @BlackRoof What character assassination? What incapability of honest debate are you referring to? What "rest  of the World " are you referring to? Do you mean your fellow ignorant inmates at your Mental Ward? Do you have any idea what you are commenting about?

    You consider me a Zionist? You really are a pathetically ignorant Idiot but at least the Zionists must really love you, Dim Witt! I'm glad you are on their side! You had better stick to spitting! I'm sure it is what you do best in life!

  • @frbjoernLA

    So, defamation by character assassination is your game.

    As a Zionist, you are INCAPABLE of honest, open debate.

    You simply repeat ISRAELI PROPAGANDIST FICTION in order to JUSTIFY the HORRORS committed in the name of Judaism.

    The rest of the world SEES THROUGH YOU NOW!

    SEE ALL THE EVIDENCE YOU COULD NEED ON MY CHANNEL,

    Real evidence!

    ...Not the propagandist lies created by the Israeli Government.

    I spit on you, the Israeli Government, your war crimes and your lies!
