Erdogan holds meeting with PA leader Abbas and Hamas chief Haniyeh
2023-07-27
[IsraelTimes] Ottoman Turkish 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...
met today with Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase....
and Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", leader Ismail Haniyeh
...became Prime Minister of Gaza after the legislative elections of 2006 which Hamas won. President Mahmoud Abbas dismissed Haniyeh from office on 14 June 2007 at the height of the Fatah-Hamas festivities, but Haniyeh did not acknowledge the decree and continues as the PM of Gazoo while Abbas maintains a separate PM in the West Bank...
at his office in Ankara, the official Anadolu news agency reports.

The meeting was held behind closed doors, it says.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had also been due to visit The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
this week, but his visit was postponed after he had surgery last weekend and as Israel is roiled by protests over contentious judicial reform.

After several years of tensions, relations between Turkey and Israel have improved over the past year, with several high-level visits, including that of President Isaac Herzog.

Erdogan yesterday promised to continue supporting the Paleostinian cause and voiced concerns over the flare-up of violence in the West Bank in recent months, after meeting with Abbas.
