Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan used a speech on human rights Saturday to accuse the West of “barbarism” for its stance on the Israel-Hamas war and what he alleged was its toleration of Islamophobia.
“Israel has carried out atrocities and massacres that will shame the whole of humanity,” Erdogan told a packed hall in Istanbul the day before the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
“All the values relating to humanity are being murdered in Gaza. In the face of such brutality, international institutions and human rights organizations are not taking any concrete steps to prevent such violations,” the Turkish leader said.
The human rights declaration, proclaimed by the U.N. General Assembly in Paris on December 10, 1948, enshrines a standard for human rights and freedoms for all people.
When you shout that everything is antisemetic of course you’re going to think it’s rising.
In the west every government supports Israel and their disgusting actions, don’t pretend this is comparable to the situation faced by Palestinians.

Ah, the traditional racist trope that because some people who happen to be from some ethnic group want/do something bad then the entire group is “bad” hence violence against all of them is justified.
It’s funny how the people claiming that criticizing Israel is anti-semitism when they defend the violent acts of the Israeli authorities, always end up using the same style of “argument” as the Ku-Klux-Klan when they claimed to be “protecting whites”.
