Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan asserted that Israel violates the most basic human rights, tramples international law and is committing genocide in Gaza. He added that Israel is becoming increasingly shameless in the face of the world’s silence and indifference.

It is sad when only semi-dictators dare to say obvious things while democratic-liberty-freedom snot-chewers are in the "it is fine" state. Some even kiss Netaniahu's ass.

hey now, some semi dictators also kiss bibi's ass. see orban.

[-] Lembot_0001@lemm.ee 12 points 3 days ago

Yeah, Orban is a disappointment even at the semi-dictator's level.

He still is supplying Israel with fuel (28% of country’s total supply, actually) over the BTC pipeline. This is literally empty saber rattling to serve the conservatives at home.

You might ask “Are they that stupid to not pursue Erdoğan over this trade?”. The answer is yes. Turkish conservatives are dead silent against this issue, and only are gobbling up the “murderer Israel” posts with no questions asked.

Some conservative mouthpieces recently started to talk about a possibility of “Gazan hijra”. It’s very much possible that Turkey will be one of the destinations of a plan of Gazan people displacement. It’s also possible that Trump greenlit Erdoğan’s latest bullshit with opposition because of this plan

Erdogan is not going to do shit about the zionist project, at least voluntarily, but it would be something if the zionists gets too carried away in their invasion/occupation of Syria (like bombing Turkish troops) that forces Erdogan to actually do something material.

A country leader said Israel is a terrorist state: Ohh yes

It's Erdogan: Ohh no

Stopped clocks…

Without defined borders or a functioning legal system I'd say Israel is a territory controlled by terrorists, not a state.
