Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused opposition MP Eren Erdem of “betrayal.†Erdem told RT that Islamic State terrorists had obtained sarin gas supplies through Turkish territory – and that Ankara did nothing despite having all the evidence.
“There is a deputy in this country, buried so deep in a pit of betrayal, and to a party that claims to be as old as the republic saying during an interview to a foreign television channel that Turkey is selling chemical weapons to terrorists,†Erdogan told a crowd in the city of Konya.
The Turkish President also called the silence of the Republican People’s Party (CHP) concerning Erdem’s revelations “treason.â€
“What is this party waiting for? Why are they silent? This is treason. How can you allege this country sells sarin gas to the terrorist state of Syria which is run by the murderer Assad?†Erdogan said, as cited by local media.
“Shame on those who still keep him in the party!†he added.
What Erdem actually revealed in an interview with RT on Monday were the details from a criminal case opened, and then abruptly closed, by the General Prosecutor’s Office in the Turkish city of Adana. His account alleges that Turkish authorities had acquired a great deal of evidence concerning sarin gas shipments to those Al-Qaeda militants in Syria that later became known globally as Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), but did nothing to stop them.

While Turkey may not have sold the gas directly, they are likely allowing it's movement to ISIS.
Why do we not read this in the US press?
Notice he called him a “traitor,” and not a “liar.”
Because our ‘press’ won’t report was our supposed allies are up to: Buying oil from ISIS, selling them weapons. We are busy arming ISIS as well ‘by accident.’
We should be allied with Russia. They are one of the few Christian nations left.
When in fact they are an enemy of Western Civilization.
“Notice he called him a traitor, and not a liar.â€
That was my first thought as well
Our ‘free’ press is bent on keeping us from knowing information. Our enemies could not have boxed us in any better than poisoning the press.
A Christian nation would not allow the Communist Party to be one-fifth of the government.
A Christian nation made Adolf Hitler their leader.
0bama and his minions in the media..
Leave us not forget Woodrow Wilson's contribution to Hitler's ascension.
And put up with Stalin for 40 years.
Then America is no longer a Christian nation.
Many thanks!!! Watched most of this on line/ at you tube/ Siege of Vienna movie. Liking it!!

Look at all the leaders Obama helped depose and look at Assad who he’s trying to unseat then compare them to Erdogan and tell me what the difference is,
Bttt
You better get our nukes out of there ASAP.
Isn't that the justification we used to attempt to overthrow Assad. Was Turkey involved in this?
And likely did not read that Turkey is setting up a 3,000 troop base in Qatar to fight the “common enemy” ...
Germany was the first nation to embrace “higher criticism” and abandon Christian doctrine in its churches in the 19th century. It was no longer a meaningfully Christian nation by the 20th. Most of the people no longer went to church, and those who did were pastored by unbelievers. Only a remnant, the Confessing Church, remained. And it did oppose Hitler and suffered for doing so.
