Israeli parliament’s decision to impose the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners is “essentially no different from Hitler’s policies against Jews,” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday, Anadolu reports.

      He is not, he is nothing but a chauvinist. Just check the companies that trades with Israel, nearly all of them are AKP-affiliated.

    First he’s backing Ukraine ascension to NATO, now he’s slagging off Israel. What’s gotten in to Erdogan?

      Erdogan wants to rebuild the Ottoman Empire. He understands that he can’t do that alone with Russia, Israel and the US being about, blindly attacking anything they like.

        the ottomans did a great job administrating the middle eastern area Palestine and Israel are in for 800 years peacefully, finally ending after ww1. Why not give the region back to them to administrate? Israel cannot and should not be allowed to run a murderous supremacist government there. We know they are just going to keep killing and expanding until they are stopped. Enough is enough.

        Think he also sees the writing on the wall for Orban and doesn’t want the same happening to him. Get back in the good light for a bit.

      It is simple; he is manipulating his supporters by cursing the US and Israel, all while he and his thugs continue to trade with Israel. Furthermore, the US threatened to prosecute them for their massive corruption and war crimes.

      Who’s paying for their fuck ups? Us, the citizens, especially the opposing ones.

    Israel is worse than Nazi Germany. Nazi Germany lasted what a decade. Israel has been committing atrocities for 4+ decades now.

      Demented take

      It’s absolutely valid to criticize and damn Israeli actions.

      But to equate them to the Holocaust where over 6 million humans got murdered on an industrial scale is worse than a bad take.

        This requires viewing Palestinians and Arabs as lesser beings and not worthy of being considered as equal to Jews and other groups that the western imperialists want to hold up on a pedestal. Israel has directly and indirectly caused mass suffering and mass death to the Arabs of West Asia over its entire existence, it is hitlerian, fascist and genocidal.

        Israel simply doesn’t have access to as many Palestinian lives as Nazi Germany did Jewish lives.

    Nicely said! Now can you explain why you and your gang’s companies keep trading with Israel and the people who question this are getting arrested?

        It’s hidden away in the first paragraph.

        The English-language edition of Wikipedia is blacklisting Archive.today after the controversial archive site was used to direct a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack against a blog.

        More context:

        “There is a strong consensus that Wikipedia should not direct its readers towards a website that hijacks users’ computers to run a DDoS attack (see WP:ELNO#3). Additionally, evidence has been presented that archive.today’s operators have altered the content of archived pages, rendering it unreliable.”
