Anti-Semitism is widespread in Turkey and intensely motivated by Islamic scriptures. Some Turkish authorities and opinion-shapers have chosen the “easy” way: Use the “Jew card” to demonize Gülen and his supporters. Many pro-government news websites and discussion forums, including pro-government newspapers, are filled with columns that claim Gülen is actually Jewish.
A columnist with the pro-government newspaper Sabah, Ersin Ramoğlu, for example, wrote a column entitled “Fethullah Gülen: a Karaite Jew,” in which he “described” how “Jewish Fethullah Gülen has destroyed Turkey, such as by poisoning thousands of young people in his schools.” Then he explained why Gülen engages in all those atrocities: For he is originally a “Karaite Jew” and “a disgrace to the noble Turks.”
“Fethullah Gülen smells money and power immediately,” wrote Ramoğlu. “For he is a Jew.”
Tamer Korkmaz, a journalist with the pro-government Yeni Şafak, also wrote a detailed article “exposing” the Jewish roots and agendas of Fethullah Gülen.

The reaction by Iran and Turkey to the Referendum in Iraq shows how totally racist and hate filled he is. The trigger? He ties Iranian Kurds to Jews.
His buddy Obama once said: "We are no longer a Christian Nation", long pause, "only".
It is imperative that the West understands why these elements in the Middle East react like this. It is because they are afraid their crimes they have been committing will be exposed to the world. May it be so.
I had never heard of a "Karaite Jew" before I read this article. My thanks to my friend Uzay for that exposure.
Why is Turkey still in NATO? They should have been expelled the moment they refused access to American forces at the start of the 2003 Iraq war. Hopefully something that will be on President Trump’s “to do” list.
Best outcome? Erdogan vanishes.
bttt
If the Jews had been behind the alleged coup, it would have succeeded.
Two rebel Turk F-16 pilots had the chance. And they blew it.
It is a shame.
Totally agree.
Erdogan is a serial liar and fraud. But he has lots of brainwashed followers in Turkey.
The Kemalists are not brainwashed by him, but not much better than him toward minorities.
They have been exposed for a century. Everybody knows about the genocide of Armenians, and with a little research can know about the Greeks, too. It’s all an open secret, to every Turk, too. But so long as the Turkish government refuses to admit it, the bubble hasn’t burst yet, and they can go on living in that bubble ‘til the oxygen runs out. It’s getting low.
Damn straight. We got voted best international conspiracy of the year for 300 years running, ever since we “arranged” for the British to take over Jamaica. They never found the gold, but Jamaica was worth more than just some paltry gold nuggets. Beat that, Illuminati.
Thanks Texas Fossil. Same kind of bull*** claims being made by the Shiite-heads running and ruining Iran -- and there are certainly FReepers who side with the dictators on this.
