Erdogan calls on US to extradite Pennsylvania-based cleric after failed Turkey coup
Fox News ^ | July 16, 2016

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called on the U.S. Saturday to extradite a Muslim cleric living in Pennsylvania following a failed military coup.

In a televised speech Saturday night, Erdogan said Turkey had never refused any request by the U.S. to extradite “terrorists” and invoked Washington and Ankara's relationship as "strategic partners" in an effort to force the return of Fethullah Gulen.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Saturday the Obama administration would entertain an extradition request but Turkey would have to prove wrongdoing by Gulen.

I say not so fast. Seeing the number of judges and others arrested, it seems that Erdogan has an agenda, one that might substantiate this as a staged coup. From reports, it doesn’t seem like the cleric in Pennsylvania had anything to do with it, nor the Turkish military in general. Looks very suspicious.

Expect nothing immediately. Proof takes time to manufacture.

However, I expect the internet is being searched for the plot Gulen hatched while in Pennsylvania. ..to overthrow the Turkish government.

A video, maybe???

Now that I know this guy is here, I want him gone too.

But in the “Arab Spring” and the Turkish war for power, there are no winners. Just musloids on both sides.

He didn’t break any US laws.
Tell Erdogan to take a hike.
He’s an Islamist and his head should have rolled long ago.

Obama will probably cave though. If he does, he should stand trial after President Trump is inaugurated.

How about we agree, but only if Erdo also takes Hamdi Ulukaya ("Mr. Chobani yogurt") and the Twin Falls, ID city government.

LOL!, ... But Actually, that is a very good point.

It seems, now that Obama "stands with the Muslims", that there is more than one Muslim side for him to stand on at the same time.

Oh well, any Muslim side that's disgruntled can just engage in terrorist attacks wherever and whenever they feel like and all will be back to normal.
