Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also recently declared that Israel is a “terrorist state” and Hamas is a “political party.” Speaking at a pro-Hamas “Great Palestine Rally,” Erdogan threatened Israel: “We can come at any night unexpectedly,” while the massive crowd chanted “Turkish military to Gaza.” Erdogan has also declared Hamas “a group of mujahideen fighting to protect their lands.”
Erdogan views the Taliban as having the same views as Turkey, which is enough to demonstrate exactly where he stands. Erdogan considers the Gaza war to be a holy war, so it should come as no surprise that he calls Netanyahu as a “war criminal.” It is also noteworthy that Turkey has shut it doors to Palestinian refugees, as their plight is likely to contribute to the propaganda war: as the war goes on, Palestinian death and displacement increases, and so do anti-Israel, anti-Jewish global sentiments.
Israel is surrounded by skillfully manipulative jihadist movements and countries which support the Palestinian “resistance.”
“Turkey’s Erdogan says Netanyahu will face ‘war criminal’ trial after Israel-Hamas war,” by Anders Hagstrom, Fox News, December 4, 2023:
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan claimed on Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be tried as a “war criminal” after Israel’s war against Hamas has concluded.
Erdogan does not recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization and has been deeply critical of Israel’s campaign in Gaza. He compared Netanyahu to genocidal dictators of the past during a speech during a meeting of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation in Istanbul.
“Beyond being a war criminal, Netanyahu, who is the butcher of Gaza right now, will be tried as the butcher of Gaza, just as Milosevic was tried,” Erdogan said, referencing a former Yugoslav president. “Those who try to skip over the deaths of all those innocent people by using the excuse of Hamas have nothing left to say to humanity.”…
DavidW says
Yeah, and Erdogan will be judged by God, so there.
FYI says
Erdogan’s god allah is the one referred to 2Cor 4:4
Biblical prophecy is on the side of Israel:this has nothing to do with politics.
“This is a message about Israel from the Lord..”[Zechariah 12}”.Jerusalem is like a heavy stone.Any nation that tries to lift it will be hurt” v 3
God will do what is promised Zechariah 12 v 9
Note that is what God will do ..not the Israelis.And allah cannot save the muslim nations
somehistory says
Yep.
bill says
Erdogan has committed so many crimes and illegalities it is more likely he would be put on trial.
I continue to be amazed he has not been taken to task by NATO. Of course the answer is he will immediately allign himself with Putin, which means Russia’s influence will move further West and
not the Mediterranean at a stroke.

turkey did not hold back in taking half of Cyprus.
MSekel says
Officially-genocidal Turkey still unlawfully occupies north Cyprus with 50,000 Turkish troops having displaced 250,000 Greek Cypriots in 1974 and looted, raped and pillaged invading Cyprus while the EU did nothing. Christian churches in north Cyprus are used as ‘toilets’ by Turks who come over from the mainland (changing demographic) and live in Greek Cypriots’ homes having stolen their businesses and assets. 5 UN Resolutions asking for removal of Turkish troops and Biden said, when Senator, he won’t rest until “the last Turkish occupying soldier is removed from Cyprus”! What is Biden doing now? Nothing.
Ray Jarman says
If former president Trump wins re-election, I will write him a personal letter requesting that the US insist that Turkey be expelled from NATO and if NATO rejects the demand, that the US remove itself from the organization.
In a second letter I will request that the US remove itself from the UN and that the rift raft be removed from NYC.
The US pays an exorbitant amount into both organizations with our tax money for which we receive absolutely nothing. Part of that money could best be used to extract every last illegal alien from our soil.
Keys says
I’d put my John Hancock on that letter, and so would millions of patriots.
Violet says
I agree. add the WHO to the list of agencies western countries should have little affiliation to.
commonsense says
Questions:
1. Why does Israel still have full diplomatic relations with Turkey?
2. Why is Turkey still in NATO?
John Smith says
Because they lack commonsense, Commonsense.
Bexarkat says
Yes…yes…yes…quite profound coming from the butcher of the Kurds and Armenians.
Cut all ties with Turkey and proclaim the Holocaust of the Jews was actually the second Holocaust of the 20th century, the first was the Holocaust, genocide, and ethnic cleansing of Armenians.
Mick says
100%. Robert Fisk wrote well on this.

Erdogan—most dangerous man on the planet, imo.

Almost agree: he gives tough competition to Xi Jin Peng
Erdogan (and Aliyev) are the butchers of Artsakh

What a turkey.

One of the favorite things mozlums do with their mouth, tongue, vocal cords…is to boast. Lying is the top, and boasting comes in close on the heels. Along with threats, boasting comes so easily, that this evil scum probably does it in his sleep.
Fitna says
Would love it if Erdogan started a fight with Israel…that’ll bring in the US and maybe even NATO.
If Islam and the West will be in WW3, might as well get it started…. because then it gives permission for western nations to decimate this evil death cult once and for all.
James Lincoln says
Fitna,
This would lead to cognitive dissonance within NATO.
Turkey, a NATO member, attacking Israel, a non-NATO nation…
James Lincoln says
Perhaps NATO should expel Turkey – and welcome Israel.

Absolutely! Only thing: they’d then have to invoke Article 5 every time Israel was attacked, be it by Hamas, Hizbullah or Fatah
James Lincoln says
Thanks for your reply, Infidel.
John Sharp says
Erdoğan kills kurds wholesale. How does he date give lessons.
Also kills Armenians
Jack Reynolds says
ERDOGAN is financing and directing Azerbaijan’s war against ARMENIANS.
.
ERDOGAN must be tried as a WAR CRIMINAL.
.
From 1915 to 1921 2 Million Christian ARMENIANS were slaughtered by the Turks.
.
It’s time to re-establish the BOSPHORUS as the line between Europe and the Middle East.

Per the Times of Israel 5Oct23, Israel is the main arms supplier to Azerbaijan: “nearly 70%”.
somehistory says
“Sen. John Fetterman, D-Penn., ripped claims in a new interview that Israel has committed war crimes in its retaliatory strikes against Hamas following its Oct. 7 massacre in the country.
Fetterman told CNN anchor Abby Phillip Monday night that Hamas must be destroyed in order for Israelis to exist peacefully and said he values the lives of innocent Palestinian children as much as he does innocent Israeli children. The Democrat has taken heat from the party’s left flank for his staunch support of Israel in media and public appearances.’

James Lincoln says
somehistory,
I really did not expect this from Sen. John Fetterman.
Very pleasantly surprised.
Hoi Polloi says
Yes to both. It was both unexpected and a pleasant surprise.
James Hoagland says
Erdogan says nothing of the Jihad murderers and rapists of Hamas but points to the Prime Minister of the defending nation. Jew hatred clear and simple. Ties must be cut with Turkey. They never should have been in NATO. Israel cutting ties with Turkey will undermine Erdogan internally because of the business they will loose. Meanwhile there are hardships that Israel must stand up to. It cannot be more clear than the anti-Jewish writings of the Koran must be a subject of inter-religious acknowledgement. No Divine entity could possibly write such trash!
VictorMc says
I simply didn’t know ErDOGan was still working as a comedian.
Thank you for bringing me up to date.
PS: His country is spending massive amounts of money on TV ads. for ‘holidays’ there. I hope you enjoy………
Check Burry says
Exactly, why do they take the adverts for a holiday in turki, boycot turki & quatar, or any other mus toilet.
Mick says
Turkey’s 22 dams on the Tigris and Euphrates are now the main cause of the displacement (of 5m?) in Iraq and Syria.
30 years ago Ba’athist Iraq and Syria, had the muscle to defend their water supply. After Bush and Blair, neutered Iraq, NATO should have defended the water supply to the Fertile Crescent, (and prevented Erdogan flooding the Kurds with the Ilusu dam).
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
What is the definition of a war crime? Is embezzlement (stealing from one’s employer) ever a war crime?
Troybeam says
Nations that commit the worst crimes against humanity are the Muslim nations yet these nations are given “HUMAN RIGHTS STATUS” which is insane to do. The real reason for these titles, MONEY and money corrupts.
M.Sekel says
Imagine officially-genocidal Turkey which exterminated 6 million Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians (Christians) and Jews between 1913–1923, forcing 2 millions on Death Marches of starvation, rapes, dismemberment, and the burning, looting and rape of cosmopolitan Smyrna in 1922, calling Israel’s president a War Criminal!
Islamofascist Erdogan’s Turkey is still committing its 2nd Genocide against Armenians now via its terrorist proxy, Azerbaijan. And he has looted, invaded and occupies EU’s Cyprus with 50,000 troops having displaced 250,000 Greek Cypriots–against 5 UN Resolutions calling for Turkey’s end of its occupation and ethnic cleansing!
Turkey, Iran, Qatar and Pakistan are supporting Hamas and its “leaders” are given Turkish passports and live in safety and luxury with their families in Istanbul and Doha!
It’s easy to understand why Hitler called Kemal AtaTurk, the genocidal Turkish leader pre-WWII his “teacher” in ethnic cleansing and terrorism of ethnic & religious minorities which Hitler executed in WWII. .
violet says
Erdogan and all Islamists and their supporters where ever they may be need to be disappeared.
