Distasteful activism against Jewish people - Erdogan labels Netanyahu as a "vampiric bloodsucker."
Following Israel's air strikes on Rafah in the Gaza Strip, Erdogan hurled insults at Netanyahu, referring to him as a "psychopath" and "blood-sucking vampire." He claimed, in a series of previous outbursts, that Netanyahu was culpable for the deaths of 45 individuals in a refugee camp within the city.
Erdogan condemned Israel's actions against Hamas militants as genocide, urging the West to take action: "The American government, your blood is also stained. You are as accountable for this genocide as Israel. Your country's leaders in Europe share the guilt for Israel's genocide, the savagery, the vampire-like actions of Israel, as you remain silent."
He picked his words deliberately: In anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, the concept of the "blood-drinking Jew" is frequently employed. The Federal Center for Political Education highlights this language as "unequivocally antisemitic."
The typical hate against Israel in the current conflict: Erdogan disregards the heinous crimes of Hamas on October 7, 2023, when over 1,200 people perished and hundreds went missing. He disregards the continuous rocket fire aimed at annihilating the Jewish state since then.
He also disregards the underhand methods employed by Hamas terrorists, who utilize their own population as human shields. This was represented in Rafah: The Israeli army disclosed evidence on Thursday that shed light on a different scenario concerning the devastating blaze in a refugee camp at another locale.
As Daniel Hagari, Army Spokesman, explained, Israel had employed two precision bombs to eliminate two ranking Hamas commanders effectively. However, the subsequent conflagration was not due to these bombs, according to the army's account.
Yet again, Hamas had strategically positioned a munitions depot near the refugee camps - in anticipation of blaming Israel later. Once more, disregarding their own population!
Additionally, several Hamas combat units were present in Rafah: The Hamas fired several rockets at Israeli cities just a few hours prior to the Israeli attack.
Another objective of Israel's military offensive: The liberation of more than 100 hostages who are still held captive by the Hamas and other terrorist organizations.
On Tuesday, terrorists from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad posted a video revealing Israeli captive, Sasha Troufanov (28), an Amazon employee. He was kidnapped, along with more than 200 people, on October 7.
