Speaking Wednesday in Vienna at a United Nations summit for tolerance, Erdogan said, "Just like Zionism, anti-Semitism and fascism, it becomes unavoidable that Islamophobia must be regarded as a crime against humanity," Anatolia News Agency and other Turkish media reported.
UN Watch, a Geneva-based human rights group, called on Erdogan to apologize for his "shocking" statements and urged U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to condemn the speech publicly. UN Watch said Ban was on stage while Erdogan was speaking.

The World for People who Think
Like the rest of us, they have to suffer the idiocy of elected politicians who seem not to know which side of the fence they are on. Maybe Mr. E will someday soon wake up and realize he's on the same side as those Islamophobes he's noticed recently. Perhaps he just isn't psychopathic enough for political office? Perhaps a military coup will show up on that stage as well as others nearby? That would complete the circle.
