Erdogan is a nasty piece of work. A populist ethno-nationalist who abuses democracy to silence critics and oppress minorities.

He is not responsible to a few million fanatical Jews who want to rule the world

10x smarter then Ayatollah Khamenei of Iran
Never has an Islamist been so Machiavelian and clever like Erdogan. Since many educated and wealthy Turks opposed his Anti-Attaturk leanings suppression of the media and force was needed thus a fake coup. He made deals with the Iraqi Kurds then turned on the Kurdish people. Turkey is receiving billions of Euro's for keeping Muslim migrants out of Europe. Despite being anti Zionist and a hater he actually allows trade with Israel to grow.

We love the Hashemites because they are weak. Turkey is anything but weak. To occupy Northern Cyprus and bellyache about Gaza and West Bank is hypocritical beyond belief.

us Jews.
What's relevant is, how to maneuver the international waters, knowing that most of the time the currents are against us.
Regardless of apparent, temporary pro-Israeli/pro Jewish stance of world leaders, we must know& BELIEVE, that the distance between them and full blown Jew-hate is but few steps at the most.

Why Europe should stop this dictator ,why not Israel ,arabic countries,USA, East Europe

NOTHING LEARNED by the "WORLD"

Interesting to know Turkey's position in NATO if he attacks Israel.

the US is handing Erdogan the keys to the Middle East.....

he is not a 'monster' because despite his large military he is no match for IDF.
and he knows it. just like Iran. big talk. bully small acts. but you never know what crazy people will do.

of a mass murderer/hate inciter - Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey - who becomes more emboldened and enabled to create conditions of most dangerous apathy in and by 'The West', which in turn will likely be the cause of huge permanent destruction to our planet, and perhaps Hundreds Millions to Billions of human deaths.

we will see how Turkey with Erdogan at the helm will fare.

My opinion is that not too well

good in the offing....

Erdogan calls Trump his good friend! Trump needs to stick it to Erdogan but I suppose the gains from mutual benefit may preclude such a righteous move. Where is the Moshiach ?

Erdogan and his Fascist government remind me of Adolf Hitler and Nazis Germany .There is a similarity between the two. There is propaganda in Turkeys school system,government run media , religion and family ,taught to children at early age . Erdogan is a national fanatic radical Islamic terrorist that wants to be a world ruler and knows how to stir the masses in his country to do his bidding. Erdogan longs for a Neo Ottoman Empire and that is his plan . He is anit West, anti Israel ,and a threat to the World peace. I blame Western corporations investing in Turkey and building Turkey to be powerful. I blame United States for selling high tech military technology to Turkey. Cyprus a European country that is occupied by Turkey since the 70s ,and this has not stopped United States,Germany,France,United Kingdom ,from investing in Turkey and selling military technology to Turkey. There is no repercussions to Turkey when they break international laws so they will continue to do so .America created this monster, and one day the same monster will attack its creator .

Why don’t you go ahead and stop him then?

In fact, Erdogan can probably tutor Trump on how to clean up all opponents in the military, press, legal & educational fields...

Two peas in a pod... both of whom are demonstrated enemies of freedom - and the Free World.

Elections of 2020 cannot come fast enuf!

slice of Syria by America's Stable Genius...

And apparently as a result of a single phone conversation.

The "Art of a Deal" at work!

"You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain"

This article reminds me of another opinion peace praising Erdogan till death about the economic miracle and reform he was bringing and also about another article from BBC(probably) after the coup, about how much the people like

backwater country, where they eat too much baklava & Delight!

trump, like obama before him, is making deals with mad dog erdogan.
hopefully netanyahu will not bow down to trump and make deals with
erdogan for the sake of us policies.

Israel is also guilty of aiding the butcher from Ankara. Our silence, reparations and constant apologising to this dictator have helped make him bolder. There is a lot of trade between Israel and Turkey (my factories biggest customer is Turkish) and everyone is sweeping his crimes under the mat to protect that trade. It is grossly hypocritical and ultimately self-defeating. Erdogan is an enemy who is aiding our enemies, especially Iran.

Who would like to go back to 1933, stop Hilter before he comitted his terror? No WWII, no holocaust. Of course, time travel is a fanciful wish. But here we have a new Hitler, well along on his rise, and once again the target is Israel, and more specifically Jerusalem, the apple of God's eye. Perhaps the last one fortold by the prophets.

kills only Kurds. Europe is made of comfortable people, cowards. We know them too well. I'm European too but from Eastern Europe and we understand Western Europe too well. Only commercial interests. Kurds never represented a force or something worthy of interest in Europe although, genetically, they are Indo Europeans, not Arabs, nor Turkish.
Interesting to explain, to ask Erdogan if his Muslim "principles" allow him to kill Muslim Kurds.

In viewing Erdogan's policies and behavior, why on earth doesn't NATO do something about it, especially his treatment of the Kurds? Is this what NATO stands for?
