Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan “has been inflaming his supporters by showing footage of the suspected far-right terror attack in Christchurch, New Zealand.”
At the same time, New Zealand has been busy rounding up youth with threats of lengthy imprisonment for merely posting the videos. Meanwhile, New Zealand ignores its mosque problem: al Noor mosque was linked to al Qaeda operatives who were killed in a drone attack in Yemen in 2014.
“Turkish Prez Showing Christchurch Footage at Rallies, NZ Fears He Is Endangering Kiwis,” by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, March 3, 2019:
Turkey’s Islamist president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has been inflaming his supporters by showing footage of the suspected far-right terror attack in Christchurch, New Zealand, at political rallies — a move which potentially “imperils the future and safety of the New Zealand people and our people abroad”, according to the Pacific country’s foreign minister.
Erdoğan told supporters that the Christchurch suspect, who killed fifty people in mass shootings at two mosques in the city, had “targeted Turkey and me” in his manifesto, sections of which were featured during a montage of the attack which he showed at a rally in aid of upcoming elections.
The manifesto had alluded to the conquest of Constantinople — now Istanbul — by the Ottoman Turks in 1453, and the subsequent colonisation of the city and the surrounding territory in East Thrace, which comprises modern Turkey’s only remaining foothold in continental Europe today.
“What does it say? That we shouldn’t go west of the Bosporus, meaning [stay out of] Europe. Otherwise, he would come to Istanbul, kill us all, drive us out of our land,” the Turkish strongman railed……

An essential qualification for aspiring politicians everywhere: sheer ignorance.

“Mosque problem” ??
This incident will mark the abolition of any criticism, actual or implied, of any mosque down-under.
From now on, no matter what may take place, the media will not see mosques as a problem.
mortimer says
It is illegal to warn people about deadly jihad terrorism. That is like making it illegal to warn people about the dangers of smoking or the dangers of drunk driving.
If people are not warned about the effects of ISLAMIC DOCTRINES 1) Al Walaa wal Baraa and 2) Jihad and Hegira, they cannot make informed decisions and the Islamic terrorists and propagandists can have an uneven playing field where they can beat us most of the time.
To deny that Islam has doctrines of hatred and warfare directed against non-Muslim kafirs is to deny the PRIMARY ISLAMIC SOURCE TEXTS.

The NZ government’s quick use of the Christchurch battle: tightening on gun ownership, censor free speech, Exactly what Hitler had wanted. All this , and the Utrecht battle, shows with increasing clarity how the Jihad Movement is fostered by the ruling classes of the West in order to terrorize their populations and reaffirm their power over proletarians.

Other Erdogan news:
The Washington Post is now acting as an outlet for Erdogan, publishing his opinion piece. I knew they were bad, but they continue to spiral downward.
Also recently, Erdogan, in response to the attack in New Zealand, threatened to kill Australian visitors to Turkey (and send back their corpses) if they held negative views of Islam. He is making these kinds of statements to appeal to voters–those moderate Turkish Muslims–during an election campaign.
CRUSADER says
It’s as if we were in a Twilight Zone.

Yes–Erdogan is threatening to murder Australians now. Not violent Australians, mind you, but any with “anti-Islam views”:
“Erdogan: If Australians with anti-Islam views come to Turkey, we will send them back in caskets”
https://www.jihadwatch.org/2019/03/erdogan-if-australians-with-anti-islam-views-come-to-turkey-we-will-send-them-back-in-caskets
Since one cannot generally know what someone’s views are unless they are broadcasting them, this is an open exhortation for Turkish Muslims to murder Australians.
alex says
Erdogan is so woefully ignorant and clueless, that he fails to see that the concepts of “collective guilt”, scapegoating and blind bigotry are the very reasons for the sickening massacre by Brenton Tarrant in the first place.

Anybody know what Erdogan’s agents are discussing with Rudy Giuliani right now? I don’t know either. Anybody trust either of the above?
I desire that my government should recall its action in Persia in 1953. That kept Persia out of Soviet hands for 26 years,which was long enough.

Mike says
I know Sikhs are sometimes wrogly indentified as Muslims but the reasons people fear Islam are Islamic terrorism.If the majority of terrorist victims are Muslims in their own home countries obviously the religion is behind the problem.And with huge migration into western countries the percentage of westerners killed will shift as the terrorism problem in Muslim countries will spread into western countries as it already has.I remember as a kid watching on the news the nutcase Islamists Sha of Iran and all the violence in these countries and wondered why would we want to bring the problem to our own countries.I could see as a kid what grown politicians refuse to see now.We are not being attacked by any other religion unless you count White supremacy as a religion perhaps it is to some.IRA in UK is starting up again i can see a tit for tat civil war comming the world is a scary place these days.

A bit of history- Musims in Albania did protect Jewish people – http://www.projetaladin.org/holocaust/en/40-questions-40-answers/the-nazis-the-holocaust-and-muslims.html

A few Muslims did–those who weren’t joining the SS to murder Jews, of course. Those who did help Jews should be–and are–applauded for this.
Some people are better than their religion–this doesn’t make Islam itself any less savage, though.

Basically it’s what Robert and David Wood predicted. Violence begets violence. Since when did erdogan need any prompting to act hateful?

I think the New Zealand PM is an idiot–but there is no basis for na’s claim that she is “thinking about heavy black penis”. She appears to have a committed partner.

How long do they think they can lie and cover up.
Why drag these awful New Zealand massacres on in the media, when others are forgotten or ignored??
Because they have dug a hole, can’t admit they have made a huge mistake & don’t know how to fix it..
They don’t want to offend people who intend to kill us.

amtoo says
And here is the problem with “the west” vs Islam – it is simply a matter of equal treatment. If you can’t see that what is going on is not equal then you are blind. It starts out with simple observations and questions and the correct response is to always respond similarly with a slight twist towards a more moral approach wherever possible and always to appear as more moral. That way you gain support without the PC brigade being able to throw a tizzy and heard the sheeples even further away from sanity.
Important questions:
1. Is your viewpoint welcome “over there”? – then why invite the haters into your area?
It doesn’t require hatred or violence in return. All it requires is the refusal to make outsiders with hate texts into citizens (especially when they won’t do it for you!) To do otherwise is actually to destabilise your homeland! It actually invites war. Once it starts there is no way back – so just don’t let the hating begin in the first place. It is not the opposite of hate to sell your rights off. It is stupidity!
2. Is the history being told truthfully and honestly? History is being obfuscated by daily sentimental cr_p talk that passes not only for news but that slowly brainwashes the beliefs of people. 49 people die in New Zealand and I really do believe that that is why death penalties exist. I mean what redemption can there be for such a person? Why do others pay for his existence after what he did? But some VERY strange things followed. First of all the word Islamophobia is bandied about. This on a backdrop of centuries of violence dished out in the other direction. Is there even such a word as Christianophobia? It has never been used right? FOR CENTURIES. And a team known as “the crusaders” is considering a name change “as it is deeply offensive to Islam” Well, if anybody has bothered to study history the crusades were a teensy tiny blip on the map compared to the Jihad that went on and on and on devouring the mediteranean coastline and Spain in its wake. So what are people falsely made to believe? They believe that the crusades were a terrible debt to be ashamed about – not one mention of its insignificance next to Jihad. This is effectively a falsification of history, all designed to make people submissive.
What is needed is a very strong and moral (not hateful or violent) rejection of those that share no welcome from their side. It doesn’t need to be direct, it can be as simple as “were you born here?”…If no, then, Welcome but you only ever get short term visas at best! And if you won’t allow us to promote the son of a carpenter at your homeland then don’t try preaching about WARLORDS and hate texts here! That is an ever so slightly softer reciprocation – is anyone stupid enough to call it racist or bigoted?
Leon Degney says
– is anyone stupid enough to call it racist or bigoted? Hmm, no doubt there will be. Sorry but that seems to be the way of things today. Islam is wrapped in cotton wool, totally protected from all criticism, even “mild”criticism.
Colquhoun says
They have started to have headscarf party’s to show they care about muslims in there country. Why not wear a cross for the 100 or so christians killed last week in Africa. The normality of wearing a headscarf by these people shows their total lack of understanding what the headscarf means. People have died to remove themselves of this tool of subjugation.
We should be all proud of our history it is what has allowed us to be what we are today. Free and can live life to the full.
Kind Regards to all

Who are “they”? Many New Zealanders don’t follow this virtue signalling. The Prime Minister is an expert, she is thinking of the left wing vote, she heads a minority party that could lose the next election easily. Here is an example of what others here think:I am gonna say it how it is, Jacinda Arden PM of New Zealand you have become a major part of the division problem. You need to step down from your office now. You forced Parliament to be Submitted yesterday to Islamic Prayers, now you are forcing by demanded strong suggestion all of New Zealand to submit, to Submit to the Islamic call to prayer by it being played over the airways on NZ.
It is one thing to have a moments silence which I think most New Zealanders would be honourable and respectful in regards to this depraved loss of life and the terrorising of New Zealand citizens and visitors at 2 mosques and the horrific loss of so many lives and loved ones, I two stand in silence and in honourable respect and deep sadness reflecting on this unnecessary loss of precious life.
However New Zealand is not an Islamic Country, yet has those of Islamic faith welcomed within her bounds, and you are correct, when migrants come to our beautiful country they assimilate or should assimilate and become “They are us”. They are welcomed with freedom to worship and right to assemble. However we do not become a them, this is a huge difference. We have the right to not worship or worship elsewhere, or worship a tree or a stone should we wish, it’s called freedom paid for on the backs of our fathers and mothers and forebears. I am getting a little sick of you as the PM and the media using Islam as a race card. ISLAM is not a RACE. Islam is a religious sect or ideology and you Jacinda are forcing through as head of state Islam on your nation. You have no right to stand in the highest office of the nation and use your position to influence and to insist this type of response. You must remain neutral in your decisions for the sake of all New Zealanders, you have gone too far. You are not an Imam you are the Prime Minister and as such you have no right or position in calling all New Zealanders to Islamic Prayer you are so outside of the boundaries of your office.
I will say it again and most likely be attacked for it. You have given so much but now so much more will be demanded.
I want to remind you that there is no such thing as Government Funded, there is only “Tax Payer Citizen Funded”. When you say we will pay and ACC will pay or I will ensure this will be paid you are actually saying every NZ tax payer will pay, making an instsnt decision over and above all ACC protocols and procedure, ok I get it.
However New Zealand is not guilty of this crime a fundamentalist fool is. Yet going to these far responses in itself is (forcing by empowered suggestion bordering demand from your office) is also extreme and fundamentalist.
On another note Jacinda since when did Gang Patch Members have a security guards license ? Since when were Patched gang members allowed to patrol the streets and the front of public buildings and houses of worship in Gang Colours and regalia? Please explain.
You are so quick to demand or suggest that innocent farmers and citizens give up their guns and armoury. Because of one deranged man? Again an extremist response.
If you wish to wear your hajib I honour and respect your right to do so, if you wish to bow down and in knelt prostrate position on the floor under the sound of the Islamic Call to prayer and Honour Allah I respect your right to do so, but as PM you do NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO FORCE OR EVEN SUGGEST THIS ON OTHERS IN YOUR OFFICIAL CAPACITY OF OFFICE. If that is what you want all of NZ to do then you must relinquish your office and your authority first and do this from grass roots not from entitlement of the nations head office In this You have gone way too far, perhaps you should step aside from your headship as you have now gone far beyond your responsibilities. For the record – Islam does not mean Peace, it means Peace by Submission.
Please don’t misinterpret me, the only right response to the attacks on New Zealand’s citizens and visitors including those proclaiming and identifying as Muslim by faith is unconditional love and kindness, however it is not – That others are to be made subjects of Islam, by your decree.
I’ll own it. Peter Mitchell

I don’t understand why the Christchurch terrorist is considered to be far right. He doesn’t like or support Trump, while he describes himself as an eco-fascist, which wouldn’t be right wing at all. I saw his views, if one can call them that, described as “all over the place.” I think it’s insulting to rationalism to attribute any coherent political position to him.
