Turkish President condemns Biden for approval of $735-mn arms sales to Israel


Ankara, May 18 (IANS): Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday condemned his US counterpart Joe Biden for approval of arms sales to Israel.

The US President was "writing history with bloody hands in this incident where Gaza was attacked disproportionately," Erdogan said at a press conference elaborating on recent clashes between Israelis and Palestinians, the Xinhua news agency reported.

"You have forced us to say this. We can't stay silent on this anymore," he added.

"Palestinian lands are being washed with blood and cruelty. You are also supporting this," Erdogan noted.

Earlier in the day, the US government reportedly approved the sale of $735 million in precision-guided weapons to Israel.

    Dear Ahmed, violence definitely a solution. However many likewise once in lifetime at least stop from complain, protest, enforce your way, wandering, come out the religion box and be a normal human.

    third rated terrorist hamas should have kept quiet..fingering in the arse of Israelis will not work.. Muslims create issues all over the world..but it will not work with Israel. God is with Israel and all the people of this world except the Muslim nations..Even if the brainless desert Arabs and other Muslim nations unite, they cannot defeat Israel.. Jai Israel we Indians are with you.. March ahead...

    I pity on your knowledge. I think you're reading some books that written 500 years ago. Jews lived in Israel since the period of Moses. You need to learn a bit more. In 1948, Palestine had a chance for 2 states but they refused and as a result Israel is created. Gamal Nasser did not wanted a Palestine state because Palestine was Under Egypt. No Palestinian cried for Independence. Egypt lost the territory in that famous 6 days war in 1967 and when someone lost their territory, they lost. Yet, Israel as a good will gesture pulled back from Gaza in 2005. All synagogues were destroyed in Gaza by the same Palestinians where they are crying about the mosque in Jerusalem. Hamas started to send rockets and stone throwing from inside the same sacred Mosque. What you expect when someone throws stone to you or send rockets,? just smile? How come the 3rd most sacred site for Islam is filled with stones?

    Tiger ? Without US they are nothing.... By the way, Who started illegal evacuation and who attacked Masjid Aqsa and worshipers? Who ignored Hamas warning to get rid of illegal and forcible evacuation? When evil doesn't stop then has to defend right? That is when Hamas attacked with rockets... Bravery is fighting and winning face to face, not pounding from Air... If Hamas had the same advance weaponry then you would have known who is Tiger and who is Sheep.

    Without Turkey, KSA, Iran: Hamas, Hizbullah and the Jihadi terrorists are helpless. Muslims should never claim Temple mount also called Dom of the Rock sacred to both Christians and Jews/Israelis. The narration of Muhammad went in a burraq to a farthest mosque is a manipulated in the hadith's. When Muhammad journey to the farthest temple specified century in the hadith's it was not at all existed during his journey. These are all manipulated in the hadith's. All the Hadith's are canonised.
