Turkey Blames US for 'Piracy' While Hosting Terror Financiers
Turkey's Devlet Bahçeli, of the MHP, has blasted the US over its actions in Venezuela, labeling them 'pirates of the Caribbean.' A bold accusation, given Turkey’s own history of projecting power—and hosting, by some accounts, Hamas leadership and financial operations, as reported by outlets like the Jerusalem Post and Middle East Monitor. It appears Bahçeli's criticism of 'foreign influence' is
highly selective. One might wonder if nations who offer safe harbor to organizations designated as terrorist by some of the very nations they criticize for 'piracy' truly have the moral high ground. Hypocrisy, much like a poorly maintained ship, always springs a leak.
