A lawmaker in the Turkish parliament collapsed at his podium immediately after declaring Israel would suffer “the wrath of Allah”. Hasan Bitmez had been delivering a speech in the Turkish National Assembly when the heart attack struck him down.
“You will not escape the wrath of Allah,” the 54-year-old railed, before tumbling to the ground himself.
Fahrettin Koca, Minister for Health in the Turkish government, said Bitmez had become “disturbed” during his speech. He confirmed the lawmaker was in intensive care on a heart-lung pump following the incident.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, notionally a NATO ally of the West, is a fierce critic of Israel. He has condemned the Jewish State for its actions against Hamas since the October 7th terror attack on its territory. He characterized Israel’s operations as “the most treacherous attacks in human history” and condemned their “unlimited support from the West.”
