[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] IDF drinking water from Turkish company

YNet Hebrew revealed recently that some of the rations that IDF soldiers have been using have come from Turkey.

Here is a water bottle giving the URL of the Turkish company Elmacik.

Hey -  at least it's kosher!

Apparently at least one other product hat IDF soldiers had - grape leaves - also was sourced in Turkey.

Soldiers, correctly, wondered why Israel is buying products from a country whose anti-Israel rhetoric is off the charts. There are Israeli bottled water companies that one would think could supply the IDF.

Arab media, meanwhile, are calling this a scandal from the other side, asking why Turkey is selling goods to the IDF. That's got to be a #BDSFail.

There was a similar mini-scandal in 2011 when it was discovered that IDF soldiers were drinking another brand of water from Turkey, Saka. Saka also sells to Qatar - and Iran. It is unclear if Saka is still being sold to the IDF.
