Turkey's Erdogan calls on world's Muslims to back Palestinians in GazaBy Tuvan Gumrukcu and Parisa Hafezi ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Turkey’s Tayyip Erdogan on Friday called on the Muslim world to back Palestinians against what he said was Israel’s cruelty in Gaza, and castigated both the United States and the United Nations over the deaths of dozens of protesters. The Turkish president has been a vocal critic of Washington’s decision to move its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem — and of the violence that followed the embassy’s opening.
