Turkish President Erdogan: Eighty-five years ago, the silence and inaction in the face of Hitler led to the deaths of 80 million people worldwide. All of humanity paid the price for the madness of a tyrant. Today, the same mistake is being repeated. The genocidal actions of Gaza Butcher Netanyahu and his cabinet are being watched with the same silence and lack of response that once greeted Hitler. No one should forget that when a fire grows, it does not only burn the region where it starts; its sparks spread across the world. Just as the entire world is paying the price today for the unresolved situation in the Strait of Hormuz, if Israel's lawlessness is not brought to an end, all of humanity—along with the region—will bear the consequences
