Turkey Prez Leaves US After Ali Funeral Snub


(ABC NEWS) Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan cut short his trip to the United States today after being denied permission to participate in critical aspects of Muhammad Ali’s funeral, according to a report published by Turkey’s Dogan news agency.
Erdogan traveled to the U.S. to partake in Ali’s funeral services. He decided to leave after reportedly being denied the right to drape a piece of ceremonial cloth on Ali’s coffin during funeral prayers. Before arriving on U.S. soil, funeral organizers had removed him from the list of potential speakers at Ali’s funeral, citing a limitation of time as the cause for his exclusion, according to Dogan.
Adding to an air of discord surrounding the Turkish president’s trip was a short quarrel that allegedly occurred between U.S. secret service officials and Turkish presidential body guards over a matter of standing room. A request for comment by ABC News to the U.S. Secret Service was not immediately returned.

‘Tel Aviv attack is just like the terror in Europe’

FM Director sent a letter to 38 foreign ministers worldwide noting how Palestinians encourage terrorism rather than suppressing violence.





Following the shooting attack in Tel Aviv’s Sarona Market, Foreign Ministry Director-General Dr. Dore Gold on Thursday sent a letter to 38 foreign offices of his colleagues around the world.
In his letter, Gold explained how radical terrorist organizations, such as Hamas and ISIS, take advantage of the Ramadan observance in order to escalate tensions. He noted that the key to achieving peace lies in the willingness of the Palestinians to give up the use of terrorism and violence.
“The brutal terrorist attack that occurred yesterday in Tel Aviv had all the hallmarks of similar acts in which armed gunmen opened fire on innocent civilians – in Brussels, Nairobi, Paris and San Bernardino," Gold wrote to the foreign ministers.
"Many of the organizations involved in the recent attacks, from ISIS to Hamas, openly admit to taking advantage of the period of Ramadan in order to lead to a significant escalation in a new round of terror that will spread in our region,” he wrote.
Gold stated that "the attack proves once again that the fundamental obstacle to the advancement of the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians is the refusal of the Palestinian Authority to renounce the violence, which they use as a tool in attempt to implement their policy."

The French news agency, AFP, reports the commandos are not participating in combat in the so-called Manbij pocket and are restricted to advisory and training roles. U.S. officials have also insisted about 300 American Special Forces in northern Syria and embedded with the Syrian Democratic Forces are not involved in combat.
‘The offensive at Manbij is clearly being backed by a certain number of states including France. It’s the usual support – it’s advisory,’ a French defense ministry official told AFP. Until now France has only acknowledged a ground deployment of around 150 members of its special forces in Iraq’s Kurdish region…”
