      How does “maybe an external spy agency should stop spying” have 6 upvotes?

      Is your opinion that no government should spy on any other government?

      On the other hand you have a strongman-on-his-way-to-dictator telling you that some people are enemies of the state and you’re just believing it as a surface truth.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Authorities were still searching for 13 others believed to have links to Israel’s Mossad security service, the Anadolu Agency reported.

    The suspects were detained in raids in Istanbul and seven other provinces for allegedly planning to carry out activities that included “reconnaissance” and “pursuing, assaulting and kidnapping” foreign nationals living in Turkey, the agency reported.

    The suspects were allegedly recruited to spy on Palestinians residing in Turkey as well as Israeli activists opposed to their government, Anadolu said.

    The report comes weeks after the head of Israel’s domestic security agency, Shin Bet, said in an audio recording that his organization is prepared to destroy Hamas “in every place,” including in Lebanon, Turkey and Qatar.

    But those ties quickly deteriorated after the Israel-Hamas war, with Ankara becoming one of the strongest critics of Israel’s military actions in Gaza.

    Erdogan, whose government has hosted several Hamas officials in the past, has also said the militant group — considered a terrorist organization by Israel, the United States and the European Union — is fighting for the liberation of its lands and people.
