Political Opposition to Mecca Agreement

As the so- called “Mecca Agreement” was being presented to the Turkish Parliament, political objections to the agreement— its name, its substance, and its consequences— mounted.

You should not have used the name Mecca.

Those who use the name Mecca as their slogan, then commit acts that go against the spirit of Mecca, believe me, they will incur God's wrath.

Know that those who raise their hands to vote yes will bring ruin upon themselves.

And if you send soldiers to Yemen and vote yes on this motion, history will not forgive you.

Even if everyone forgives you, millions of Gaza's supporters will not forgive you.

Even if you silence all of their voices, God, Glorified and Exalted, who has power over all things, who sees all things, hears all things, and knows all things, the Master of the Day of Judgment, will not forgive you. Look.

Mecca is a sacred place to billions of people.

They take this sacredness and invoke it by calling the agreement the Mecca Agreement.

Isn't that right? And when we give the agreement this name It becomes something no one can question.

They create the impression that we are protecting the holy lands.

On the other hand, Who even is Saudi Arabia?

What role does Saudi Arabia play in the Middle East?

What political step have you seen Saudi Arabia take other than acting as the United States' proxy in the region?

And what political step have you seen it take other than being one of Israel's biggest collaborators?

And now they have entered into a conflict with Yemen.

I ask from here, and I ask everyone, what problem do we have with the Yemeni people?

What has Yemen done that goes against Turkey's national interests, my friends?

We are indeed facing a game of deception.

You exploit citizens' religious feelings and their holy sites, then go and serve Israel and the United States.

We must not fall into this trap. That is why I say we will oppose the Mecca Agreement as strongly as possible, and vote against it clearly and openly.

I make the same appeal to all the members of parliament.

Do not put the lives of poor people’s children in this country at risk for the interests of America and Israel.

Claiming to protect Mecca and the Kaaba means first and foremost protecting Palestine, protecting Gaza, and protecting Jerusalem.

Three full years have passed, and the parties to the agreement have shown no real will to help Gaza.

Today, we have a clear agreement with explicit articles and terms.

When we read the text of the agreement, two fundamental questions come to mind.

First, whom will we defend? Second, against whom will we wage war?

We know the answer, but we must understand that Turkey’s historic mission is not to create a front between two Muslim states, nor to arm the countries of the region against one another.

If an alliance must be formed, its purpose should not be to facilitate the regional calculations of the United States or Israel.

We, the Felicity Party, declare to our nation that we will not shoulder this responsibility, and that we will not accept the Mecca Agreement in its current form.

Are you planning to sign the Mecca Agreement, then the Badr Agreement, then the Uhud Agreement?

What are you protecting us from? What danger are you trying to avert through this agreement?

This is my first concern. If you insist on saying that you achieved an extraordinary feat through the Mecca Agreement, then the extraordinary step you should take is to make the Mecca Agreement a shield protecting Gaza’s orphans.

You are signing the Mecca Agreement, so why can’t you say that you made this agreement to protect Gaza from Israeli aggression?

Say that, and we’ll applaud you. Say, “We will be a shield for Gaza’s orphans.”

Say, “We will protect those left unprotected,” “those being killed before our eyes,” “and those facing genocide this century before the eyes of the world.”

Say that, and let’s see. Come on, say it.

When you get to this issue, not a sound comes out of your mouths.

That was how clear the positions were of the leaders of Turkey’s opposition parties.

They attacked the Turkish government’s position and stressed That shame will haunt whoever signs the agreement, and it was described as an agreement serving America and Israel.

One of you must come out onto this platform to explain to the people what benefit the Mecca Agreement will bring to the Republic of Turkey.

A mutual defense agreement like NATO’s cannot be concluded with a country that is at war, such that it stipulates that if that country is attacked, we will consider ourselves attacked as well.

That means entering the war against the Houthis on Saudi Arabia’s behalf, and that means entering the war against the Houthis on Netanyahu’s behalf.

That means Turkey becoming Trump’s proxy in his war in Yemen.

Shame on those who signed this treason called the Mecca Agreement.

To them, the blood of martyrs and the soil of the homeland no longer have any value equal to that of an official car, a private secretary, or an office chair.

Whether a Turkish soldier is martyred while defending this country or defending the House of Saud, it makes no difference to them.

That is why we say no to turning the Turkish soldier Into a mercenary for Aramco.

And we say no to the Mecca Agreement.

Thus, the agreement has become a source of crisis within Turkey amid questions about the point of involving the Turkish army in an aggression against Yemen for Saudi Arabia's benefit, while the Israeli enemy forces continue their aggression against Gaza,

and about the interests the agreement serves and the price Turkey may pay if it gets involved in the aggression against Yemen.

You are insulting me. Today, Fazilet.
