Turkey stopped all trade with Israel as of Thursday, according to two Turkish officials familiar with the matter, adding to already high-running tensions between the once-close allies over the war in Gaza. The move expands last month’s restriction on some Turkish exports to Israel, as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan steps up criticism of the Jewish state and tries to consolidate support among conservative voters at home.

Trade between the 2 countries was worth $6.8 billion in 2023.

Rejecting one imperialist hegemony and embracing another (especially out of SPITE!) to look anti-imperialist is NOT anti-imperialism!

It’s beyond stupid!

Crank behaviour borne of contrarianism and doctrinal possession.

Yes…you’re abandoning and shaking off an imperialist yoke, that’s great….

And now you’re gonna start sucking up to Russia and/or China….

Or Iran…(fuck the MEK btw but that’s just tangentially related to this wider topic)

Or Turkey.

Or fucking whoever else pulls this shit.

Huh….

Tell me.

What’s so revolutionary about THAT???!!!!!!!

Nothing! That’s what!

Tankie shite!

No don’t give me that shite about “the revolution”, you’re treating that shit like the rapture or some other sort of hypothetical promised day and allowing yourself to be USED by other imperialists! And you KNOW it!

I’m a leftist myself and even I could see that shit from miles away!

Ive seen LOADS of examples of it in real life AND in fiction to boot!

Tell me!

Why would you do this?

Are you stupid?

I feel like I’m the only leftist who notices this shit for what it is and it drives me up the FUCKING wall!

Away with that SHITE!!!!!

(Now I’m no stranger to building political partnerships and finding allies, that’s fine. But you need to recognise when you’re being used!)

"Turkey is bombing and massacring Kurds tonight. No protests, no marches, no media coverage, no condemnations from UN, no ICC arrest warrants for Erdogan. Since 1914 Turkey has killed over 1.5 million Kurds. Stop Kurdish genocide." — Hemdad Mehristani, researcher, X, October 23, 2024.

If Turkey has the right to respond to a terrorist attack by bombing dozens of targets belonging to Kurdish militants in Iraq and Syria, why is Israel being condemned for responding to the October 7 Hamas-led atrocities against its own citizens? Just because of the "two-state solution": Michigan and Minnesota?

Not only is Erdogan lying when he accuses Israel of "genocide," but he is also proving that he is a big hypocrite. If he is really worried about the safety of the Muslims in the Gaza Strip, why does he continue to support Hamas, while denying Israel the right to defend itself against Islamist terrorism? If he believes that he has the right to bomb Kurdish militants in Syria and Iraq, why is he denouncing Israel for taking the same action against Palestinian Islamist terrorists?

The complicit silence of the anti-Israel groups on US university campuses towards Turkey's crimes is simply evidence of a staggering racism and hypocrisy.

"Nothing is more meaningful than being part of a struggle for democracy. That’s why millions of Turks turned out to the polls and gave the opposition a historic victory in local governments across Turkey earlier this year. That’s how the Poles organized a winning coalition to vote out the conservative Law and Justice Party last year. It can happen here, too."

“People in Gaza wait for freedom flotilla”

Pro-Palestine activists disturb Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s speech, demanding support for the “Freedom Flotilla”.

The Turkish government asked Twitter to censor its political opponents right before an election, and Elon “free speech” Musk complied.

Make no mistake: Elon Musk will use Twitter to manipulate the US. elections in 2024.
