Erhan Afyoncu's 'Palestine' jab at Celal Şengör: 'We will not listen to history from a geologist'
National Defense University Rector Prof. Dr. Erhan Afyoncu reacted to geologist Prof. Dr. Celal Şengör, who claimed that Palestinians 'sold their land.' Afyoncu stated, "We will not listen to history from a geologist."
Geologist Prof. Dr. Celal Şengör participated in Oğuzhan Uğur’s program and made statements there.
Claiming that Palestinians sold their land, Şengör said on the program, "It was sold to a large extent. Those who say it wasn't are complete ignoramuses." Şengör’s remarks were also supported by İlber Ortaylı. Ortaylı also used the expression, "In the past, saying 'Palestinian' meant a person who lived by selling land."
HE REACTED
Historian Erhan Afyoncu, when asked about Celal Şengör’s remarks, replied by saying, "We will not listen to history from a geologist." Afyoncu had previously told Celal Şengör, "Do I conduct geological studies? History is written by historians. Do your own job."
