As you know (or not), Turkey is the only ally of Israel in the Middle East and it is a secular country with a majority of Muslim population. As a member of Nato and UN, Turkey has always been respected around the world in the peacekeeping missions. Ehud Olmert (Israel's Prime Minister) and Lebanese President (Fouad Sinyora) both asked Turkey to send troops for stabilizing the region, but Israeli President stated that a country like Turkey, which has close ties with Israel, could not be neutral and therefore shouldn't be in the force. What do you think?

I think they should be allowed. What is most important is that Hizbollah/Hezbollah not be allowed to be the sub-government and miltary force of Lebanon. They cannot be allowed to cross the Israeli border or fire rockets into Israel. It doesn't matter who is the stabilizing force as long as the terrorists are unable to remain as a cohesive force of aggression against Israel. There is no doubt in my mind that Israel will not attack anyone unless they are attacked first.

I think they should send troops. They have a good track record of supporting the UN and UN forces. I believe they could remain neutral. I don't see that as being a problem at all.
