Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan recently compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly. Erdoğan called for a global alliance to stop Netanyahu, likening Israel’s actions in Gaza to Nazi atrocities. He accused Netanyahu of leading a “murder network” and criticized the UN for its inaction, urging world leaders to intervene in what he described as “genocide” against Palestinians. He also condemned the countries, particularly the U.S., that continue to support Israel with military aid.
This comparison has sparked controversy, especially amidst the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, and highlights Erdoğan’s longstanding advocacy for Palestinian rights.
