Appears that Erdogan is in control and purging the hell out of both the military and the judiciary. Rumors that Erdogan may have guided or provoked a hopeless "coup" to provide a pretext for the massive pro-Islamist purge he was ready to do. THOUSANDS in the judiciary and the military have been rounded up... how many will be executed? How many will rot in horrible Turkish prisons for years or decades?

Reportedly at least 6,000 rounded up now by Erdogan, 2700+ in judiciary and thousands more in military.
