Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon says “it is an amazing and inconceivable phenomenon: a member of NATO allows an unscrupulous terror organization, Hamas, operate from its territory in Istanbul.”

Ya’alon is referring to the fact that Turkey allowed Hamas’s exiled leadership establish its home base in Turkey after leaving Damascus because of the Syrian civil war.
