Erdogan: “Europeans Would Revive The Gas Chambers If They Weren’t Ashamed”

Six months ago, it was virtually assured that as part of his daily out at the West, Philippines’ president Duterte would accuse then-president Obama of being a “son of a bitch (or whore).” Now, a similar dynamic is playing out between Turkish president Erdogan and Angela Merkel, and/or the German (and Dutch) people, whom he now accuses on an almost daily basis of being Nazis, as a result of the escalating diplomatic spat between Turkey and Europe. And while some have grown accustomed to Erdogan’s daily verbal diarrhea, today the Turkish president took it to the next level: while on Sunday Erdogan once again compared Europe with the Nazis, and accused Angela Merkel of engaging ‘Nazi practices”, he escalated dramatically when he said that Europeans ‘would revive gas chambers’ if they weren’t ashamed.”
Speaking at yet another demonstration in Istanbul on Sunday, where he rallied support for a ‘Yes’ vote in Turkey’s upcoming constitutional referendum, Erdogan said Europe’s ‘masquerade ball’ is over: saying the ‘struggle’ against his country has reached a new level, Erdogan slammed European nations, particularly Germany and the Netherlands, for their ‘Nazi regulations’ as they revealed ‘the hatred they have accumulated for years against our country, our nation or even against all Muslims on TV screens and newspaper headlines every day.’
