From Turkey to Palestine

Turkish again show their solidarity to Palestine. Last week, Prime Minister Recep Tayyib Erdogan walked out of Davos Forum on heated debate with Shimon Peres-Israel's President-on Israel's onslaught in Gaza and Erdogan called Peres "killer" before walk out of the debate forum aired on television. Because of his decisive position on Israel, Erdogan given a hero's welcome when he returned home last Friday.

And now, after Erdogan, Ibrahim Dagasan, a midfielder of Sivasspor's football team show his support to Palestine by placing the Palestinian flag in the middle of a football stadium in Sivas, Central Turkey after his team beat Galatasaray in the quarter final of the Turkey Cup.


Some spectators chanted: "Damn Israel" to see Dagasan's action but he then raised a finger to his mouth, gesturing for them to be silent. One of Dagasan's team mates is the Israeli forward Pini Balili.
