June 2nd, 2010

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu speaks with a Turkish activist injured in Israel's deadly naval raid on a Gaza-bound convoy Monday, after his arrival at Etimesgut military airport in Ankara, Turkey, Wednesday, June 2, 2010. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hotly rejected calls to lift a blockade on Hamas-ruled Gaza on Wednesday, insisting the ban prevents missile attacks on Israel and labeling worldwide criticism of his navy's bloody raid on a pro-Palestinian flotilla as 'hypocrisy.' (AP Photo)AP - Hundreds of activists deported from Israel following a bloody raid by Israeli commandos on a pro-Palestinian flotilla returned to a hero’s welcome in Turkey early Thursday. Nine bodies were on the first plane.
