Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan Angers U.S., Israel, Egypt With Mursi Defense

13. Actually, he'd be more proud of you

Erdogan is saying Israel had a role in the coup. You're the one saying "Jews."

That is to say, Erdogan is accusing a political entity that has expressed in hte past a strong interest in interfering with Egypt to get results it favors, and who is right now praising the coup, has once again dipped its hands into the well of Egyptian politics in an effort to get a favorable result.

You however, are smacking this accusation not onto a nation with a track record of doing that sort of thing, but onto a religious-ethnic group that spans the world and, for the most part, is not within Israel. Do you see the difference?

Now, what you want to say, is that Erdogan has no evidence of his claims and that this is simply an accusation of something he imagines to be be likely. That's a completely fair and valid statement. And who knows, maybe he DOES have evidence, maybe Israel WAS as elbow-deep in it as Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the US were. he should have said so, if so, but the possibility exists.

But no, rather than make a reasonable point, you just start running around screaming "THE JOOZ! THE JOOOOOOZ!"

Still, I commend you for not falling into the common practice of graverobbing the Holocaust on your first salvo. It puts you at least that much above some other posters here.
