Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on July 17 accused Israel of attempting a “systematic genocide” of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, in one of his strongest criticisms yet of the country.

“We have been witnessing this systematic genocide every Ramadan since 1948. The world remains silent because those who lost their lives are Palestinian,” Erdoğan told a meeting of Islamic scholars in Istanbul to mark Ramadan.

“Do you hear the voice of the United Nations? They are doing something only for a show. Is there executive action? No. Why was the United Nations established? For world peace. Does it make a contribution to world peace? What does it stand for? It serves only their secret purpose,” Erdoğan said, a day after slamming the world body over its inaction to Israeli strikes.

The prime minister also lashed out at the Islamic world. “When the West remains silent, the Islamic world watches too,” he said, calling on all sides to be moderate on Palestine. “We demand an immediate stop to the bloodshed . . . We are very much aware the Middle East deserves peace, prosperity, and solidarity,” he said.   

“What happens in Palestine is not Shiite vs. Sunnis; that is why the Islamic world keeps silent. Our children and brothers are dying in Palestine. Humanity has been destroyed there, as well as the honor of Muslims,” he told the audience at Dolmabahçe Palace. 

Hmmmm........Gaza has an annual population growth rate of 2.91% (2014 est.), the 13th highest in the world.....Them Juice must be doing something wrong.
