National Will Platform and 308 NGOs Prepare for Historic Protest in Memory of 12 Soldiers Martyred in Operation Claw Lock and in Solidarity with Gaza

In a groundbreaking move, 308 civil society organizations, members of the National Will Platform, are gearing up for an unprecedented protest to honor the 12 soldiers martyred in Operation Claw Lock and show solidarity with Gaza. Thousands are expected to gather on Galata Bridge at 8:30 AM on January 1, 2024, chanting the slogan "Mercy for Our Martyrs, Support for Palestine, Curse on Israel."


The recent killing of 12 heroic soldiers by the PKK terrorist organization and the massacre of 20,000 civilians in Gaza under Israeli bombardment since October 7, following the rejection of the UN Security Council's humanitarian ceasefire resolution by the United States, has spurred civil society organizations into action.


In a press conference held at the TÜGVA Headquarters, Necmeddin Bilal Erdoğan, the President of the Foundation for the Dissemination of Knowledge (İlim Yayma Vakfı), along with 22 NGO leaders, announced the upcoming historic protest scheduled for January 1.


Ibrahim Beşinci, President of the Türkiye Youth Foundation (TÜGVA), shared a joint statement on behalf of the NGOs, emphasizing that the names of the perpetrators may change, but their goals remain the same. He highlighted the need for a collective response against terrorists targeting the nation and its flag, stating, "We are aware that we are at a historic turning point. In these crucial days, inspired by our martyrs, we will raise our voice and convey the message of this nation to the whole world. Our condolences to the families of our martyrs, may our nation endure."


Making an appeal on the basis of "being human," the NGO leaders called for the participation of all citizens in a historic demonstration on Galata Bridge. They underlined the extraordinary brutality and genocide perpetrated by Israel against the Palestinian people in Gaza, urging the global community to react against the inhumane policies of oppressors.


The route for the historic protest was also unveiled during the press conference. The march, starting at Sultanahmet Square at 8:30 AM on January 1, 2024, will proceed over Galata Bridge, which will be closed to traffic during the demonstration—a first in the history of the Republic.


The press conference concluded with an invitation to all mothers, fathers, children, siblings, and citizens to join the procession, emphasizing the symbolic significance of starting the new year with a message of unity and solidarity for Palestine on Galata Bridge—a landmark event in the history of mass demonstrations in Türkiye.

I am begging for everyone to share this message in all the western medias and among yourself.I must be doing something right as all the online media outlets are deleting my comments with the speed of light or making it invisible.This is addreesd to all israel supporters :You must be pure evil killing and mentally handicapped by killing 7000 babies and trying to convince us why you are not pure evil for doing so .Everyone knows you belong to a nation whose definition is commiting genocide for 500 years .It is understandable you may think you can keep doing it indefinitely.But now everyone knows about it .Being pure evil and mentally handicapped is a very bad combo .Israel is responsible for all the violence as it has been commiting genocide for 75 years.What Israel did every day for the past 75 years is ten times more evil than October 7 . According to your logic it would be okay to exterminate all israeli terrorist land thieves indiscriminately and israel will be responsible for the violence . No one is buying your propaganda.Everyone knows not only you are a descendant of bunch of genocidal thieves you are still hoping to keep up the game .Rise of USSR and china put a hard break to the genocidal expansion of the west .It must be a real pain not being able to replicate the successs of your ancestors; stealing lands and anything possible by genocide.Instead you have to be a wage slave till death working 80 hours a week just to not be homeless hoping to find a way to commit genocide.By the way did you know now due to unprecedented spread of scientific knowledge never before seen in human history it is possible for a single victim to cleanse humanity of the anglo-saxon-ashkenazi terror gene terrorizing humanity for 500 years.You are now facing all the potential genocide victims being united by world's largest economy and world's largest nuclear arsenal.Can you really be assured russia and china will not use this scenario to empower the victims to potentially bring down the west .I know you are a pure evil darwinist to whom morality or ethics are nothing but a bunch of chemical reactions in the brain .I will not be appealing to any notion of ethics or moral you pretend to adhere to. .If you a westerner you need to stop supporting genocidal terrorism of the west for the safety of everone .This is not the medieval ages.You can't just steal entire continents by genocide without any consequences.
