.Israeli Participation in NATO Summit
The Republic of Turkey has objected to the participation of the government of Israel in the upcoming NATO summit in Chicago, citing the Israeli government's failure to apologize or make restitution for its deadly raid on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla in 2010, which killed Turkish citizens and an American citizen.
Join us in supporting the Republic of Turkey's position by signing the petition below.

Dear Mr. Davutoglu:
We write to express our support for the opposition of the Republic of Turkey to the participation of the Israeli government in the upcoming NATO meeting in Chicago

("Turkey says Israel not welcome at NATO summit,")
As you have noted, the Israeli government has neither apologized nor made restitution for its deadly assault on the 2010 Gaza Freedom Flotilla, in which Turkish citizens and an American citizen were killed. Nor has the Israeli government yet been held to account for the assault by the international community. Allowing the Israeli government to participate in the Chicago meeting would communicate to the Israeli government that it will be protected from adverse consequences when it violates international law.
As you know, there is an international campaign to promote boycotts, divestment, and sanctions against the Israeli government until it complies with international law with respect to its treatment of the Palestinians. We encourage you - and every other government - to use every opportunity to sanction the Israeli government until it complies with international law regarding its treatment of the Palestinians.
