Erdogan uses New Zealand massacre footage in election rally

ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – Over the weekend, Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan showed footage of a brutal mass killing on Friday of 50 Muslims in two New Zealand mosques during a political campaign rally ahead of nationwide local elections later this month.

“Let’s watch this. It is important,” Erdogan told his supporters as snippets of the live-streamed video by the cold-blooded shooter identified as the Australian national Brenton Harrison Tarrant played on during the rally televised by almost all major Turkish news TV channels.

Social media companies have come under fire for not being more effective in taking down the video of the brutal massacre of Muslims while worshipping in Christchurch.
