Davutoglu compares Netanyahu with Paris terrorists

The actions of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu against the Palestinians are comparable to the recent terrorist attacks in France, Prime Minister of Turkey Ahmet Davutoglu said on Thursday.

"Netanyahu has committed crimes against humanity, as well as those terrorists who staged the massacre in Paris," he told reporters in Ankara on Thursday.

Davutoglu called a crime the fact that Netanyahu "is the head of a government that dropped bombs on children playing on the beach in Gaza, and takes the killing of Palestinians for granted. This government also killed our citizens who were on board the ship carrying humanitarian aid in international waters."

On January 7 Islamists staged a massacre in the center of Paris at the editorial offices of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. The attack killed 12 people, eight of them journalists. Another 11 people were injured. The terrorist brothers Kuachi were killed on 9 January.
