Israel Matzav: Erdogan has colorectal cancer?

Erdogan has colorectal cancer?

JPost quotes an unnamed Turkish blogger who says that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has colorectal cancer.
But a Turkish blogger said a physician with ties to the Turkish executive branch told him Erdogan is suffering from colorectal cancer and is under close examination to determine its severity. On the condition of anonymity, the blogger said a respected authority in academia had told him the prime minister was expected to start chemotherapy last month.

The blogger said Turkish media have reported almost nothing about Erdogan?s condition, leaving most Turks totally unaware anything might be wrong. Still, he said, it?s an ?open secret? in the Turkish medical community that Erdogan has been diagnosed with cancer.

Last month the Jerusalem-based intelligence website DEBKAfile quoted ?Western intelligence sources? as saying Erdogan had been diagnosed with colorectal cancer, also known as colon cancer.

Official Turkish sources have remained tight-lipped. Following Erdogan?s surgery the AKP?s English- language website ran a three-sentence news item headlined ?Premier Erdogan says he is fine,? quoting the premier as saying only, ?I?m fine and I will be better.?

There might be hope for saving Turkey if Erdogan is forced to resign.
Four senior AKP figures ? Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc, Economy Minister Ali Babacan and Gul himself ? have been named as possible successors.

None of the candidates, however, match Erdogan?s popular appeal: A recent poll conducted by an independent US-based NGO found one-third of Turks would ?definitely not? vote for AKP if it were run by anyone other than Erdogan.

?From an electability perspective, there is no one who can replace Erdogan,? the blogger said.

Hmmm.
