Turkey, Erdogan and its antisemitism

In fact, I didn’t want to write anything about WikiLeaks. Why? The fact that these cables exist and reveal, if not confirm, the ugliness of diplomacy, makes them news. Nothing more! What few have mentioned, however, is what the leaked documents are not:
-They are not reporting
-They are not journalism
-They are not investigative
-They are not analytical
-They are not, by themselves, important

But what matters is now how governments react on all these allegations: on the languages of different USA civil servants.
Yesterday I was joking with a Turkish friend that Erdogan would sue whoever cross his path on this and that in the end the ‘Jew’ would be blamed for it. Since ‘the Muslim’, from their point of view is simple the ‘Eternal victim'. And always will be. But, heeeee, I was really joking; until late this afternoon. First the PM of Turkey said: ‘’This is the United States’ problem, not ours... Those who have slandered us will be crushed under these claims, will be finished and will disappear’’ Not the words of diplomacy, right.? Or this: ‘’ “My friends are working [to take action] against these diplomats in terms of national and international law. We will continue this process there. Thereafter, they [the diplomats] have to think [about the consequences],” Erdoğan said. “We have discussed these issues with the U.S. administration. They have extended their apologies, but it’s not enough. They have to take all necessary measures against these diplomats’’

The guy simple don’t know that you cannot sue diplomats. You can expel them when they committed serious crimes. That’s all. But it became worse and ugly now since a senior official of the ruling Turkish AKP party declared: ‘’Israel could have engineered the release of hundreds of thousands of confidential documents on WikiLeaks as a plot to corner Turkey on both domestic and foreign policy’’
Turkey anno 2010: anti-Semite, discriminator, racist, and full of self pity. A shame.
