Visitors from Israel to Turkey - formerly the second most popular travel destination for Israelis after the U.S. - have fallen 47% since January, compared with the same period last year. The Turkish government has also been less than careful in fanning the flames of anti-Semitism. Erdogan recently exhorted university students to take a page from "the Jews," whom, he said, "invent things and then sit back and make money off those inventions."
