1. Turkey must face pressure from world powers to stop attacks on Kurds in northern Syria, a senior Israeli Foreign Ministry official says.

   “The international community must call on Turkey to stop these aggressions and killing. The Kurds must be protected by the international community,” Foreign Ministry Director-General Eden Bar Tal tells foreign reporters.

   The amount of crimes Erdogan is doing against minorities, plus his violent expansionist imperialistic rhetoric and ambitions, compared to the low amount of exposure such acts are getting in the world, especially from their NATO allies, is simply unbelievable.

3. international community already does that and its one of the fallout between EU/US and turkey dunno what israel on, maybe trying to play double wrong so its ok but only israel get away with this shit.

4. Lmao get em

5. Let me tell you about an incident that happened to me, in 2016 I was doing my compulsory military service in the Turkish army in the city of Muş. Muş is almost 100% Kurdish and a city with high terrorism incidents. When I was a soldier there, the PKK was setting up ambushes and a major was killed in an ambush 10 km away from where I was on duty. Anyway, one day while I was on guard duty in the explosion-resistant tower with a bulletproof vest, a G3 rifle and 200 bullets, children were playing football in the next street. One of the children hit the ball hard and it fell into the military area. The children started to climb the fence to get their ball. I tried to call out but they were a bit far away so I couldn’t be heard. I reached the officer on duty from the tower’s radio and explained the situation. He said, “go outside and give the children their ball”. I went outside, called out to the children to come down from the fence, gave them their ball, they thanked and left.

   It came to my mind when I heard that Israel was defending the rights of the Kurds.

6. is this the onion?

7. The irony.

8. Is this Israel having a sense of Humor?

9. I always wondered how is that there are so many Kurda yet they don’t have their own country. It’s wild.

10. Is this some sort of a joke? Why would Turkey take any criticism from Israel re: on attacks foreign adversaries seriously? The entire premise of Israel’s recent attacks on Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Gaza were basically that these countries housed organizations that that have or are planning to attack, Israel. That is basically Turkey’s justification for attacking Kurdish rebels.

11. I thought I was on the onion for a second there

12. Blows my mind Israel says this but the Kurds and Palestinians are in similar situations. Onion comments here are justified
