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.

It is easy to condemn. What is hard is actions

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

A broken clock is right twice a day.

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.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

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.

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.

OK...so, at what figure does it become acceptable?

I know that and even still they are not removing existing links without replacement. But there are no mentions of malware in that article.
