Turkiye said early on Monday, “just as the end of the genocidal Hitler came, so too will be the end of the genocidal (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu.”
In a statement, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said, “Just as the genocidal Nazis were held accountable, those who seek to destroy the Palestinians will also be held accountable,” adding that, “Humanity will stand with the Palestinians. You will not be able to destroy the Palestinians.”
On X, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said, “Our president has become the voice of humanity’s conscience.”
“Those who seek to silence this just voice, especially international Zionist circles including Israel, are in a state of great panic.
“History has ended the same way for all genocidal perpetrators and their supporters,” he added.
The statements came after Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz insulted Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on social media.
Erdogan threatens ‘Israel’, Israeli FM warns him
Earlier on Sunday, Erdogan threatened the Israeli regime that Turkey would send forces to occupied Palestine to support the Palestinian people. “We must be very strong so that Israel can’t do these things to Palestine,” he said, referring to the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
Directly after his statement, top Israeli officials went hysteric, even threatening the Turkish President that he would face the same fate as former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
This is not the first time that the Turkish president likens Netanyahu to the late Nazi leader. In a similar statement, Erdogan said on May 12 that the Israeli occupation is conducting the same practices in Gaza employed by Nazi Germany in its wars, and that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has surpassed Adolf Hitler in his “genocidal methods”.
“Is it possible to look at what Israel has inflicted on the people of Gaza for months and see it as legitimate for Israel to bomb hospitals, kill children, oppress civilians, and condemn innocent people to hunger, thirst, and lack of medicine under various excuses? What did Hitler do in the past? He oppressed and killed people in concentration camps,” Erdogan said in an interview with Greek newspaper Kathimerini.
“Netanyahu has reached a level that would make Hitler jealous with his genocidal methods. We are talking about Israel; which targets ambulances, hits food distribution points, and opens fire on aid convoys,” he said.
Additionally, in December, Erdogan said there is “no distinction” between Netanyahu’s actions in the attacks on Gaza and the deeds of Hitler. “How do you (Netanyahu) differ from Hitler? These (actions) will make us look for Hitler as well,” he said then. “Is there anything Netanyahu does that is less than Hitler? No.”
