The feud between the 7th Chairman of the CHP, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, and journalist Fatih Altaylı is escalating.
Kılıçdaroğlu responded harshly to Fatih Altaylı, who had previously stated about him, "He is working for the AK Party, knowingly or unknowingly, probably knowingly. He has no idea about Turkey, yet he aspires to govern it. You go manage your own house if you can," with the following words: "Donkeys may become human, but you will never become a human. You are a disgrace who ran to every organization of the FETÖ terrorist organization to fawn over them when they held power. You are a 'for-sale' employee of bosses who cursed at Ciner while working for the Doğan Group, and then switched to them when Ciner paid more. You are a dishonorable woman-hater who said about a female Human Rights Association president; 'I would be a scoundrel if I didn't sexually harass her when I see her.' You are a collaborator who publishes polls manipulated by the Palace's instructions."
HE WILL FILE A LAWSUIT AGAINST KILIÇDAROĞLU
Claiming that Kılıçdaroğlu justified him with his response, Altaylı said, "He clearly revealed that he is a pawn serving the AKP. He couldn't have made a better move to prove me right. I must have touched a very sensitive nerve regarding his interest in regaining control of the CHP, as he has gone mad." Altaylı stated that he would file a lawsuit against Kılıçdaroğlu.
'THOSE STOKING THIS ARE AKP SUPPORTERS'
Fatih Altaylı's response to Kılıçdaroğlu's statements about him, delivered in today's video published on his YouTube channel, is as follows:
"It is a very shallow attack. He has gathered and repeated every accusation and slander that the Gülenists and AKP supporters have used until today, all the 'throw mud and hope it sticks' tactics.
I want to thank him. Why? Because he clearly revealed how right I was and that he is actually a pawn serving the AKP, whether knowingly or unknowingly.
Why? Because who are the ones attacking me the most today? AKP trolls. After those insults and slanders directed at me by Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu today—for which he will definitely be held accountable before the judiciary—who are the ones stoking this? Again, AKP supporters.
"THEY SHOWED THEY ARE AKP HITMEN"
Today, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu clearly showed that he is an AKP hitman, or at least, even if he is not conscious of it, those around him who penned that text are in a very cozy relationship with the AKP; he has been dragged there through a partnership with types who have demonstrated their existence through blackmail and such in the business world and who have served the Fethullah Gülen Community and provided them with various opportunities. He couldn't have made a better move to prove me right. I must have touched a very sensitive nerve regarding his interest in regaining control of the CHP, as he has gone mad. Because writing that text is not the work of a reasonable person; it is such an indecent and rude text. Those who made him write it are also responsible for the current situation in Turkey. At the root of their grudge against me is actually the CHP congress. It is the support we gave to Özgür Özel before the CHP congress. Because their plan was this: they were not going to nominate Ekrem İmamoğlu in Istanbul, and they probably wouldn't have nominated Mansur Yavaş in Ankara, and they would have lost again on this issue. It seems we disrupted that plan for the CHP. With the anger of that, he has now turned into a government hitman, but he will be held accountable for these in court. This was good; he showed what he is with his style.
"HIS MESSAGES ARE STILL HERE, IF I RELEASE THEM HE WILL BE ASHAMED"
He didn't write it, but by publishing what was put in front of him as if it were his own product, he showed it. He went back to the very distant past, to my departures from Sabah and Hürriyet; after that, he was a guest 20 times or so, I still have his messages, if I release them, he will be ashamed. I won't release them, but he knows what he wrote to me."
