Pro-government Yeni Akit columnist heaps praise on 5,000 lira bonus: 'Left-leaning morale killers'

Pro-government Yeni Akit columnist Ali Karahasanoğlu told his readers, who had criticized him before the decision to grant the 5,000 TL bonus to working retirees was made, "It would be wrong to try to take shots at the current government that is trying to do its best..." 

While stating that Erdoğan had carefully considered every detail when making this decision, Karahasanoğlu labeled those who criticized it as "left-leaning morale killers."

"WILL THEY SAY MAY GOD BE PLEASED?"

The relevant part of Karahasanoğlu's column is as follows:

“They asked, 'Why isn't the 5,000 TL bonus being given to working retirees as well?'..

Tayyip Erdoğan had calculations made again and again.

He scrutinized every detail..

Following the report that said, 'If we cut this from here, and reduce that from there.. we can give 5,000 TL to working retirees in addition to non-working retirees,' he announced the good news the other day..

Without disrupting the order, and in a way that won't lead to other problems..

He announced that work has been completed to provide the 5,000 TL bonus to all retirees..

Well, has even one of those who commented under our article, saying, 'Ali bey, write about it, write about it. Why isn't there 5,000 TL for working retirees, write about it,' commented saying, 'May God be pleased with Tayyip Erdoğan. He listened to our objections. He fulfilled this request of ours'?

Have they said, 'May God be pleased with Akit newspaper.. We made criticisms in a way that insulted and threatened the columnist.. They published our criticisms.. We believe these comments had an impact on us getting our rights..'?

They did not..

Then?

Then is it possible for us to believe in the sincerity of those comments?

They are the same 'reader-looking,' left-leaning morale killers..

For weeks, they have been saying, 'Write about the 7,500 TL pension. Write about it, Ali bey'..

That '7,500 TL' problem will also be solved soon.. 

After it is solved, will they say, 'May God be pleased with Tayyip Erdoğan, he found a way. He didn't forget the retirees.. He ended the injustice'?

I don't think they will say it at all.."
