“Mr Peres, you are older than me. Your voice is too loud,” Erdogan told Peres, saying his emotion belied a guilty conscience.
“You kill people,” Erdogan told the 85-year-old Israeli leader. “I remember the children who died on beaches. I remember two former prime ministers who said they felt very happy when they were able to enter Palestine on tanks.”
When Erdogan was asked to stop, he angrily stalked off, leaving fellow panellists UN Secretary-General Ban-Ki moon and Arab League Secretary Amr Moussa.
“When it comes to killing, you know it too well,” the Turkish leader said.
When the moderator tried to cut short Erdogan’s remarks, saying it was past time to adjourn for dinner, he answered in frustration, “Don’t interrupt me. You are not allowing me to speak.”
He then said: “I will not come to Davos again.” ..MORE

Turkish PM storms out of Gaza debate with Israeli president
DAVOS, Switzerland (AFP) – Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday stormed out of an angry debate at the Davos forum on the Gaza war with Israel's President Shimon Peres.
"I do not think I will be coming back to Davos after this because you do not let me speak," the Islamist-rooted prime minister shouted before marching off the stage in front of Peres, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and an elite audience of ministers and international officials at the World Economic Forum.
Erdogan criticised the audience for applauding Peres' emotional defence of Israel's war in Gaza, before the moderator, Washington Post journalist David Ignatius, insisted that the debate had gone overtime.
He said Israel had carried out "barbarian" actions in Gaza. ..MORE

What happened in Davos is something that the Ummah will cherish for a very long time. Enough is enough of all this crazy war and brutal killings. And Israel government must be made known of all these nonsense. Gaza is 'an open prison'. And the West will ensure that Gazans will stay like that forever, otherwise Israel will perish!? We salute you PM Erdogan.
