    ISRAELI TOURISM MINISTER URGES ISRAELIS TO BOYCOTT TURKEY

    AMMONNEWS - Israeli Tourism Minister Stas Mesezhnikov called Israelis
    to boycott Turkey, citing that the boycott is for Israeli 'national
    honor' and urged Israelis to stop traveling to Turkey for vacation
    following reports that Turkey classified Israel as a 'strategical
    threat,' Israeli media reported on Sunday.

    The Israeli Minister's statements came after Turkish media reported
    on Saturday that the Turkish National Security Council approved
    significant changes in a document which contains threats against
    Turkey claiming that Israel is now a major threat to the country.

    Israeli newspapers indicated the document stated that Israel's actions
    may cause countries in the region to begin an "arms race."

    The Council document decided to remove Iran- which was previously a
    major threat to Ankara- ,Syria, Bulgaria, Georgia and Armenia from
    the list of countries that pose a threat to Turkey, Haaretz reported.

    Relations between the two countries hit a new low last May after
    Israeli commandos killed nine Turkish peace activists on board the
    flotilla that attempted to breach Israel's naval blockade of the
    Gaza Strip.
