Hosted by a television show in Israel, PM Ehud Olmert has given warm
messages to Turkey. Israeli PM said they will not oppose to Turkey's

Turkey's right to do such operation.
Stating that they expect Turkish investors in Israel soon, Olmert
said pending Armenian genocide bill in the U.S Congress can be solved
peacefully with necessary talks between the U.S and Turkish
governments.
Indicating that his country will never support terrorist actions in
the Eastern border of Turkey, Olmert emphasized that Israel is also
one of the target countries of the PKK terrorist organization.
Olmert said: 'We have common strategic benefits. Israel can never let
any terrorist actions targeting Turkey. I have always been a
supporter of peace in military operations. However, a country has the
right to defend it self if it is being attacked by outside forces. It
would not be a surprise for us if Turkey decides to defend itself.'
