All that you posted is true & Erdogan is leading Turkish society into a Shariah-compliant state.
But you said “Kemalists are jerks”. I thought Mustafa Kemal, his vision for a secular Turkey, and his political descendants, were the good guys.
Are you saying today’s Kemalists haven’t made an effective reply to Erdogan’s creeping Islamization? Fair enough, but it appears that Erdogan has reached past the secularized urban Turks of Istanbul & western Turkey into the darker two-thirds of the country in Anatolia where Islamic fanaticism is on the rise.
I’ve even read that if Erdogan & his henchmen get their way, the Ataturk mausoleum will be closed to the public.
