Erdogan Hints Turkey Could Enter War On Side Of Palestinians

The Express reported yesterday:

    Turkey's president appears to have threatened to intervene in Gaza in an impassioned speech at a pro-Palestine rally this evening.

    Recep Tayyip Erdogan delivered a speech to a rally this afternoon in which he told attendees Israel was responsible for war crimes, and framed Hamas as "freedom fighters".

    In comments that have prompted Israeli outcry, and led the country to withdraw its diplomatic presence, president Erdogan suggested assaults on Gaza constituted a "massacre".

    In the same speech, he reportedly said that Turkey can "come at any night unexpectedly” to ecstatic reception from hundreds of thousands of attendees.

    The footage, which is currently circulating on X, formerly known as Twitter, purportedly showed the pro-Palestine crowd responding with the chant: “Turkish military to Gaza.”

  1. Spicy! And if Israel attacked Turkey, we'd have to defend them - Article 5.

    1. Article 5 is malleable. For instance, we've never involved ourselves in the military spats between Greece and Turkey.
