Most of Turkey opposes Erdogan and his radical agenda. He doesn’t give a whit about the suffering in Syria. For him, it’s all about Assad. I accept that Assad’s an evil tyrant (no defender of Christians either as some dupes say). But first we defeat the most radical terrorists in the world, ISIS. Then, we’ll deal with Assad.
You're wrong.
Erdogan was just elected President in August with a first round majority, while his AK Party increased its share of elected offices.
True, but he has neutralized the senior military leadership and turned the more radical eastern Turks against the Westernized residents of Istanbul / Izmir / Ankara. I think it will turn bloody eventually.
