Temper tantrums are not new for the Islamist leader, who was greeted to a hero's welcome back in Istanbul a few hours later.

With public rebuke or court cases against members of the media, he has effectively silenced major criticism of his policies. During the recent crisis in Gaza, Erdogan has led the most vocal opposition to Israel from the Muslim world.
