‘Afraid of US’: Turkey slams ‘weak’ response of some Arab countries to Trump’s Jerusalem move
On Saturday, Erdogan urged the UN Security Council to annul Trump’s decision. If the UNSC fails to act on the issue, Turkey will do everything necessary within legal frameworks to fight the US recognition, he promised.

"If the [UN Security Council] will not, we will approach relevant authorities within a legal framework," Erdogan said. "Turkey will not stop defending Palestine or Jerusalem just because Israel wants it to.”

“Like a century ago, the Islamic world is facing efforts to reshape it through blood, tears, and strife between brothers,” Erdogan said, as cited by Anadolu news agency. People in the Islamic world must “be prepared for attacks which try to bring down Muslims from within,” he said.

Turkey hosted Muslim leaders on Wednesday for an emergency summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Jerusalem. Erdogan has praised the summit’s decision, in which the 57 countries who are members of the OIC recognized East Jerusalem as the capital of the Palestinian state in response to the US move. The Turkish leader expressed confidence that the OIC’s initiative will create “a multiplier effect” and called upon other nations to follow suit.

Trump’s ruling last Wednesday led to days of violent clashes in East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza, which resulted in several fatalities and over 1,000 injured among Palestinians. Thousands also took to the streets to protest and burn US flags in Jordan, Iran, Egypt, Indonesia and elsewhere across the Muslim world.

The US initiative to recognize Jerusalem faced widespread international condemnation. The leaders of France, Germany and other European nations have all agreed that the US move was dangerous and harmful to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. The Arab League also rejected the American decision, saying that it essentially amounted to the recognition of the illegal occupation of East Jerusalem by Israel.

It is already controlled by the Zions, albeit indirectly with Al Saud's.

Wrong section. Doesn't matter, Pres.Erdogan is back on track once again.

There is a danger that is threatening Mecca. He is right, unfortunately you are totally right. Zionists have a plan to divide Arabian peninsula and whenever they control Syria, they will march on Mecca.

 

[jamal18]

The muslims did nothing when Jerusalem fell.

They will do nothing if Mecca falls.

 

[Pax Ottomana]

He's absolutely right.

 

[LeGenD]

I disagree.

What are we supposed to do about Jerusalem? Dispatch our armies to the region?

Tayyip Erdogan should concentrate his efforts towards convincing the Trump administration to change its decision. Wait, Turkey is not on good terms with the US under his watch. Oh bad.

If you cannot take care of your first Qibla so forget about the second/main one. Losing Quds means Muslims didn't care about their sacred places, makes evil powers more greedy to do the same with others.

Bro,

Rally global support and put pressure on the Trump administration to change its decision. Time-consuming exercise but worth the effort. Let us see how much support we get from different corners of the world.

Russia is Turkey's new best buddy, right? Request Russia to do something. Wait, they will provide lip-service and then...

When will Muslims learn.

Welcome new chutya on the block..
Turkey lost all three ..Jerusalem, Makkah and Medina..Erdogan should come out of Ottaman syndrome..

You know that the so called golden dome popularized by propaganda is not actual al quds?

How do you suggest we Muslims including Iran should deal with this issue. Statements we have seen, OIC gave verdict but no one is happy. What options Muslims have (Practical once) considering all Diplomatic and geopolitical/geographic situations / relations in mind.

Thanks.
