P.S., Obama and Erdogan are good buddies. Two like-minded dictators, and both Islamists. Much overdue to get rid of ours now, via either an election or a second revolution.

Definitely a good thing. Erdogan was imposing an Islamist-styled dictatorship on the country and has been undermining everything in Syria

Hopefully the Turkish military will make some executions that are long overdue. Democracy is a farce in certain countries.

The armed forces tended to desire secular rule.

We are looking at Egypt all over again. If this is happening it is good. Think Turkey got tired of ISIS running around unaccounted for.

For. The Turkish military believes in a secular government, not sharia.

“are we for or against this?”

The military has historically been prowestern and against Islamic anything. However, Erdogan has been eliminating likely coup leaders since he has been in power. So, whether it is the same military as before him is up in the air.

Don’t know for sure but the President of Turkey was playing both sides against each other until the airport attack of a few weeks ago

Not surprised.

Remember that even for a power mad leader such as Putin, he is also is an Orthodox Christian and Orthodox Christians have not forgotten what the Ottomon Turks did to country that is the home of Hagia Sophia.

Let us not forget that Erdogan’s son is basically ISIS’s oil fence.

Needs to happen here too. Our administration is supporting home grown anti-American Militant Groups and ISIS after all while pursuing to remove the right of the Second Amendment from its citizens!
