That's Rich

 Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says that Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is

"no different that Hitler"

Turkey, like Lebanon, a once proud secular nation, has been evolving to resemble an Islamic state.

That's rich, comparing Netanyahu to Hitler is a refrain often heard in the United States, applied to a multitude of conservative minded public figures. It is an overly overreaching tactic that politicians employ to inflict character assassination upon their ideological enemies.  I cannot imagine that politicians such as Erdogan are so stupid as to actually believe the crap that is coming out of their mouths.  No these are comments designed to incite their following.

To Erdogan, it does not matter that:

• Hitler directed the actual genocide of Jews, gay people, black people, and gypsies.  Netanyahu is himself Jewish, responsible for protecting his people from genocide.
• Hitler's genocide was responsible for the deaths of over 6 million. The entire nation of Israel is less than 10 million, which, by the way, includes Jews, Christians and Arab Palestinians.
• Hamas attacked Israel on October 7th, killing over a thousand persons.
• The Gaza strip was controlled by Israel and set aside for the Palestinians.
• Palestinians have rejected multiple opportunities presented by Israel and others for a "two-state" arrangement.

No, Erdogan is speaking to followers that support for the drive to the sea.

Here in the States, the same types of comparisons are loosely thrown about without a hint of reality.
