The part I find most ironic is

" I think that we should make peace with the moderate elements."

Who in their right mind would consider Israel to be a moderate element? I think the last massacre in Gaza has shown Israel to be on the list of least moderate nations internationally.

They have spent the past two weeks trying to whitewash the Palestine genocide including at places like Davos. I wonder how Turkey will deal with this second attempt at killing the people of Gaza?
