Erdogan slams rare rebuke from north Cyprus over Syria offensive
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
hit back at the head of northern Cyprus on Sunday after a highly rare rebuke of the Ottoman Turkish government over its offensive against Kurdish turbans in Syria.

"I say it clearly: he has totally overstepped his bounds," Erdogan said in comments carried by state news agency Anadolu.

The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund...
’s "Operation Peace Spring" against Kurdish turbans in northern Syria was launched on Wednesday, drawing criticism from around the world.

But Ankara was not expecting criticism from the Ottoman Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, a territory whose illusory sovereignty Turkey is alone in recognizing.

The republic was created after Turkey invaded Cyprus in 1974 following a coup aimed at bringing the island back under Greek control, and it has been divided ever since.

Its current head, Mustafa Akinci, criticized the Ottoman Turkish assault in Syria on his personal Facebook account on Saturday.

"Even if we call it Peace Spring, it is blood that is spilling and not water," he wrote, calling for "dialogue and diplomacy."

Erdogan warned: "At the given time, we will deliver an appropriate response."

His vice president, Fuat Oktay, had earlier "strongly condemned" Akinci’s statement, adding that the bodies of Ottoman Turkish soldiers killed during the 1974 invasion must be "turning in their graves."
