Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan denounced a pro-Gulen
channel for framing the Palestinian resistance in Gaza as "terrorists".
In a speech before his supporters in the southern Turkish city of
Antalia, Erdogan said he was not surprised at the fact that the Gulen
group would label Palestinian resistance as terrorism, since they did so
before when their media outlets dismissed the Mavi Marmara's Gaza
Freedom Flotilla humanitarian activists as terrorists.
"The results of municipal elections of March 30 will dash the hopes of this group," Erdogan said.
Erdogan slammed the recent phone taping attempts as a crime, vowing to prosecute all those involved, hinting at the "parallel entity" which the government accuses of carrying out these operations.
On Saturday, the Gulen-owned STV channel broadcast a news story which read: "The Israeli Air Defense forces bombed 7 terrorist sites in Gaza."
