‘Shame on you’: Former PM Bennett slams Turkey over arrest of Israeli soccer player
2024-01-15
[IsraelTimes] Former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett blasts the reported arrest tonight of Israeli soccer player Sagiv Jehezkel, of the Antalyaspor club, as part of an alleged incitement probe opened by Ottoman Turkish authorities over a gesture made earlier by Jehezkel on TV for the Israeli hostages held by Hamas
...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
"This is The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
2024. Shame on you, Ottoman Turkish government," tweets Bennett, calling the arrest "unbelievable."

Jehezkel, 28, was suspended from the team after he celebrated an equalizer goal in Sunday’s 1-1 draw against Trabzonspor in the top Ottoman Turkish league by making a heart sign with his hands to the camera, and showing the words "100 days. October 7" along with a Star of David symbol on his wristband. 100 is the number of days the hostages have been in the Paleostinian terror group’s captivity.
In Turkey, whose neo-Ottoman sultan hates the Jewish state with the fire of a thousands suns for not knowing its dhimmi place? What are you thinking, man?
The gesture was met with fierce backlash from fans and Ottoman Turkish media.
Duh.
Ottoman Turkish Justice Minister Yilmaz Tunc announced an investigation against Jehezkel for charges of "inciting people to hatred and hostility."
"That's OUR job!"
Hebrew media reported Sunday night that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been updated on the events and that the Prime Minister’s Office together with the Foreign Ministry and the Culture and Sports Ministry were working to push Turkey for Jehezkel’s release.
Unbelievable.
