Recep Tayyip Erdgoan

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has won his second consecutive term as leader of Turkey, but the first one under “a new system” where Erdogan will be president and executive of the country.
The head of Turkey’s High Electoral Board (YSK) said that Erdogan had secured more than 50 percent of the votes needed for the victory.
In the parliamentary election, Erdogan’s AK Party placed first with over 45 percent. The pro-Kurdish People’s Democratic Party (HDP) also entered the parliament after passing the 10 percent threshold.

Conventional wisdom dictates that Israel and Kurdish insurgents throughout the Middle East are close allies and there is plenty of evidence to confirm that historically, Israel has always militarily and otherwise aided Kurds in Iraq, Syria, Iran and even Turkey. Long before the rise of Erdogan in Turkey, Israel’s good relations with the Kurds was one of the only major points of disagreements in what was generally a healthy relationship between Ankara and Tel Aviv.

Sometimes there is no better way to neutralise one’s opponents than to take their vague ideas and implement them according to one’s own standards. This is essentially what Russia and Iran with the full approval of Syria have done in respect of ‘safe-zones’.

Some have attempted to compare the background to the current Turkish-Dutch diplomatic row to the US, Poland, Sweden and others, funding, orchestrating and encouraging the illegal coup in Kiev in 2014.
The parallels are superficial to the point of a total distortion of recent events.
Here’s why.
1. A foreign rally for a foreign cause 

Under President Recep Tayyip Erdgoan, Turkey has become a state sponsor of terrorism, an illegal invader and occupier of Syria and Iraq, a neo-Imperial power which threatens the Arab world, Hellenic world and Slavic Balkans.
