Phone 876-1522 finding themselves under more stable democratic governments — will realize that it is to their best interest to live at peace with their neighbor Israel in an area—if but given the chance—that could be come a second America with an enviable standard of living. While in Istanbul, the writer discovered that the numerous tourists who visit Israel make Turkey a must on their itinerary. Istanbul is only a two-hour jet flight from Tel Aviv. Recognizing the importance of the Turkish- Israel link for tourists, the Israel Tourist Agents Association and the “Tourist" Travel Company of Turkey recently published a joint travel brochure entitled “For Sun and Fun Visit Turkey and Israel” which “Have Everything You De sire for your Holiday,” and “which are tied together by the path of History." The Jewish community in Tur key is a prosperous one. Out of the 40,000 Jews-—the majority of whom Sephardim—some 36,000 reside in Istanbul. The communi ty maintains five schools: four elementary and one secondary. There is also a Rabbinical Semin ary. In addition, synagogues can be found in all Jewish settlements throughout the country. Highly esteemed by both the Jews and the Turks is Turkey’s chief Rab bi David Aseo. The Turkish people take pride in the fact that, during the Span ish Inquisition, the then Sultan had opened the doors to several hundred thousand Jews who found a welcome haven in Tur key. Many of them subsequently rose to high positions in both Government and industry. Today the Jews have become so greatly integrated into the life-stream of the nation that one finds it difficult to distinguish them from the Turkish people. The Turks have indeed set an example of how Moslems and Jews can live together as true brothers. This close affinity marking Turkish national life is not to be found in any of the so-called “Christian” nations of the world where the evangelical teachings have ever marked and singled out the Jews as “one who does not belong.” In Turkey the Jews find themselves fully at home. Here they are made to feel that they belong. Iran, the former Persia of Cy rus fame, is perhaps the only other Moslem state where such an affinity exists. And had it not been for the Mufti of Jerusalem and some of the other Arab poli ticians of his ilk, it goes without saying that the Arabs and Jews would today also be living in a peaceful and prosperious Middle Eastern region—side by side as true brethren and as common children of Abraham.
