Turkey seeks Israeli arrests over flotilla raid
Turkish media reports prosecutor seeking arrest of 174 Israelis allegedly involved in 2010 Navy raid on Gaza-bound ship

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4134689,00.html

"A Turkish prosecutor is seeking the arrest of 174 Israelis allegedly involved in the naval commando raid that killed nine Turks on a ship carrying aid to the Gaza Strip last year, broadcaster CNN Turk reported on Wednesday.

Ties between the two regional powers have deteriorated sharply since IDF naval commandos raided the Mavi Marmara in May 2010.

CNN Turk said on its website Istanbul state prosecutor Mehmet Akif Ekinci had written to the Justice Ministry calling for the arrest of those who carried out the raid and those who ordered it.

Turkey has previously said it will seek to prosecute all Israelis responsible for crimes committed during the May 2010 raid."

2. Bunch of Dolts
In addition to the fact that no crimes were actually committed, Turkey came up with a list of 174 current and former IDF sodliers that may or may not have had anything to do with Mavi Marmara.

3. The article is heavy on claims but light on details
what would be the enforcement 'range' of this warrant? Would it be international or only in Turkey or quite what?
