Speaking to the Turkish Parliament in Ankara in a session that was carried by local television, Erdogan said his words were "less harsh than the white phosphorous shells used by the Israeli army."
Erdogan said his criticism did not stem from anti-Semitism and emphasized that in the past he had termed anti-Semitism a crime against humanity.
But:
he then continued to say that "media outlets supported by Jews are disseminating false reports on what happens in Gaza, finding unfounded excuses to justify targeting of schools, mosques and hospitals."
This statement by Turk PM Erdogan points clearly to where the new Turkish Republic is heading.
An Islamist and antisemitic ideologically based society.
Where are the voices of reason in Turkey, who wanted change and evolution from the atypical Islamic totalitarian state. The brave Attaturk experiment is in its death throws, the Islamic character of the state is ever more in ascendancy over the laicism and secularism of the old republic.
