If (1) the coup is successful, and (2) Ergodan is replaced with a secular military leadership, then this will be a good thing.

There is a tradition in Turkey of a secular military being respected as guardians of society, much like in Egypt. But still need to know more before we celebrate too much.

They’ve shut down the news sites. I was there for 2 coup’s, one in 83 and another in 97. Should be interesting...
