Now France should boycott help to Turkey

[Adi_SH_]

I am ex muslim and i know, if it was happened in france. Muslims would definitely say, Allah punished france for blasphemy. Now why don't muslims say something for turkey.

[mishik]

I am only sorry for my Greek brothers and sisters. God bless Armania and Greece. 🙏

[xxafthabxx]

The amount of hate comments is unbelievable even during these tough times

[giorgismaximos]

17/8/1999 7.6 R Izmit Turkey over 17.000 dead
Greek rescue team first to go to Turkey
07/9/1999 5.9 R Athens Greece 143 dead

Turkish rescue team first to come to Greece
The two countries came close . The "earthquake diplomacy "
Not much hope for this time .
Erdogan is on his way.

[hmmmm]

france use harp to make this earthquake

[marlenehussein]

When muslim put up hate speech, its called terrorism. When non muslims do it, its called freedom. If i showed happiness toward those who died in france, what would people say????

Please stop the hatred!! We are all suffering!!

[abshirisse]

Condolences to the turkey people who affected earthquake.

[rissyzbusiness]

Now Allah Also Got Angry To His Priests.

[CherylTamer-gbgk]

I am mostly definitely NOT a fan of Erdogan. He’s dangerous and is destroying Turkey. And he’s just a straight up idiot.

HOWEVER!!! Loss of life, especially kids, is tragic. It makes no difference your religion, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, politics. Loss of life is tragic and I am deeply sorry to hear this. Deeply sorry for those who have lost loved ones in this.

Praying for these people

[maddogbasil]

Tragedy will sometimes bring the greatest of enemies together
That us why in life their is no such thing as an eternal enemy
Maybe one day that enemy could be your greatest ally

[malgorzatamiroslawakim]

Muslims be like, Allah sent earthquake to france but poor accuracy and it went to turkey.
