Israel on Saturday said it is recalling its diplomats from Turkey after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan spoke out against Israel during a pro-Palestinian rally.
In Istanbul, Erdogan led calls for a cease-fire in front of hundreds of thousands of supporters protesting Israel’s moves in the war on northern Gaza, calling the country an “occupier” in a fiery speech.
“Israel has been openly committing war crimes for 22 days, but the Western leaders cannot even call on Israel for a cease-fire, let alone react to it,” Erdogan told the crowd, who waved Palestinian flags, according to the Associated Press (AP).
I don’t care if Erdogan’s rebuke is right or wrong, he’s a huge piece of shit.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Turkey does not consider Hamas a terrorist organization and has offered to be a negotiator between the group and Israel in order to release hostages.
In London, demonstrators shut down the streets surrounding Westminster Abbey and parliament as marchers chanted in favor of a cease-fire in the conflict.
The protest action represents the loudest calls yet from the global public for a cease-fire in the war, which has raged on for over three weeks and continues to escalate.
The conflict began early this month after Hamas militants killed over 1,400 Israelis, mostly civilians, in a surprise attack.
The United Nations has led calls for a humanitarian ceasefire to assist civilians in Gaza, as the Israeli military levels entire neighborhoods, displacing over a million people.
The Israeli military also cut off all internet and phone communication Friday, complicating civilian rescue efforts and aid convoys.
