When in doubt, blame da Joooos.

Deputy Turkish Prime Minister Besir Atalay accused the “Jewish Diaspora” and other foreign agents of orchestrating recent unrest that has rocked Istanbul and other cities.

Atalay made the comments during a visit to the Central Anatolian province of Kırıkkale on Monday.

“There are some circles that are jealous of Turkey’s growth,” Atalay said, according to a report from the Hurriyet Daily News. “They are all uniting, on one side the Jewish Diaspora. You saw the foreign media’s attitude during the Gezi Park incidents; they bought it and started broadcasting immediately, without doing an evaluation of the [case].”

The demonstrations began in late May after police used tear gas and water cannon to smash a sit-in protest in Istanbul’s Taksim Square against the removal of the adjacent Gezi public park to make way for a mall and reconstructed army barracks.
