Yesterday I shared Netanyahu’s remarks on Erdoğan and the Kurds. Now I’m sharing the full video. Watch his condemnation of Erdoğan over the killing of thousands of Kurdish civilians.
🚨 Kurdish lives matter. The world must listen.
Israel’s support for the Kurdish people did not begin yesterday. Here are some facts worth remembering:
🔹 As early as June 2014, Netanyahu publicly supported Kurdish aspirations for independence.
🔹 Ahead of the 2017 independence referendum in Iraqi Kurdistan, Israel was the only country to openly support the establishment of an independent Kurdish state. Netanyahu endorsed the Kurdish people’s legitimate efforts to establish a state of their own.
🔹 In October 2019, Netanyahu condemned Turkey’s invasion of Kurdish areas in Syria, warned against ethnic cleansing and expressed Israel’s willingness to provide humanitarian assistance to the Kurdish people.
🔹 Yesterday, at the United Nations, he again accused Erdoğan of murdering thousands of Kurdish civilians, alongside hosting Hamas leaders, denying the Armenian genocide and imprisoning journalists and opposition leaders.
Where is the international outrage for Kurdish victims? Where are the demands for accountability from someone who lectures others about human rights?
Political convenience must never determine which victims deserve solidarity and which are forgotten. Kurdish lives are worth no less.
As President of the Jewish Kurdish Community in Israel, I am proud of the friendship between our peoples. I call for this support to become concrete action for Kurdish freedom, security and self-determination.
❤️ My heart is with my Kurdish brothers and sisters.
Yehuda Ben Yosef
President of the Jewish Kurdish Community in Israel

BREAKING: turkey parroted Hamas lies on the UN stage.
Israel’s ambassador walked out.
That’s not a protest. That’s refusing to sit through a Nazi-style lecture filled with Hamas-made blood libel.
