Turkey on Friday issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and dozens of other Israeli officials on “genocide” charges.
The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office said it has issued warrants against 37 people. Besides Netanyahu, warrants target Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz, National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and military chief Eyal Zamir, among others.
The warrants charge the Israeli officials with “crimes against humanity” and “genocide” committed in Gaza and against the flotilla carrying aid to the enclave, according to the prosecutor’s office. That flotilla was intercepted by Israeli authorities last month.
Israel was quick to condemn and reject the warrants.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar called the move a “PR stunt” by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
“In Erdoğan’s Turkey, the judiciary has long since become a tool for silencing political rivals and detaining journalists, judges, and mayors,” Sa’ar said in a social media post, referring to the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu earlier this year. Imamoglu, a key Erdogan rival, was arrested in March as part of corruption and terrorism investigations.

What? Nothing about the attack by Hamas? Does CNN have the stones to even ask? Hint: No.
A shame that Mossad can’t kidnap the vile snake Erdogan and release a video of them stringing him up...
Turkey needs to buy pagers for all their officials.
Not many people read about the disgusting history of the bullying, murderous Turk swine.
Ottoman Musloid trash.
then go arrest him, Erdogan
We should issue genocide warrants for all muzzies.
Immediate execution on capture.
Can’t explain it. Might as well invite the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zimbabwe too.
Turkey does not have nukes under their control but NATO does. I think NATO should pull all nukes from Turkey. Israel has nukes and thus this is all foolish talk. ‘
Does one every wonder why Israel has never tested their nuclear weapons and they do have them? It is quite simple. Their nuclear weapons are of our design and they know they work. The only thing is question is were the designs given to Israel or stolen. I do not care. I am glad they have them.
Pronto.
You are sooo right!!!
WHF IS TURKEY DOING IN NATO WITH THAT BAFFOON ERDOGEN?????
Maybe they should kidnap Mamdani too!
“Zohran Mamdani refuses to ask Hamas to disarm, stands by Netanyahu arrest pledge”

Great symbolism but I expect future reality to move in a different direction.
Turkey great friends with President Trump and partners for the ultimate goal regime change in Iran as sought by Netanyahu.
Then the Neo-Ottomans will get pickings like land in northern Iraq and northwestern Iran.
I have been asking that same question, since I was in Turkey, back in the 80s.
Turks accusing Israel (or anyone) of genocide is the height of irony and hypocrisy.
The Turks are familiar with genocide. Just ask the Armenians and Kurds.
My Grampa fought the Turks in WWI.He said they were vicious with their long knives. They’ve always been on the wrong side.
Pathetic evil regime in Turkey, wars and attacks all of its neighbors
Good idea…..including BHO, Mamdani, and the jihad crew in congress.
Dump them in Gitmo.
