After his Gaza comments, US Jews demand Turkey's Erdogan return award
An American Jewish organization is demanding that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan return an award it gave him a decade ago over his recent remarks on Israel’s military operation in Gaza.
Calling him “arguably the most virulent anti-Israel leader in the world,” American Jewish Congress President Jack Rosen accused the Prime Minister of “spewing dangerous rhetoric for political gain and inciting the Turkish population to violence against the Jewish people.”
