So a Turkish paper is referencing atrocities against Jews committed during the time of Ataturk, and pointing to Erdogan's government as repairing Ataturk's wrongs ["the first temple to open in Turkish republican history."]

Then we have the reference to "the false and misleading narratives created during the fall of the Ottoman Empire" when Ataturk created secular Turkey.

Erdogan is really making a dramatic break with the secular past, and seems to be pushing ever towards establishment of his caliphate.

He made that break as soon as he got into office. Replacing the generals that fomented the 1980 coup was one of the more recent power grabs.

Erdogan’s caliphate starts getting real when Hagia Sophia reopens as a mosque eighty years after Kemal Ataturk turned it into a museum.

The Ataturk Mausoleum just might be closed indefinitely for “repairs” as well. Ataturk regarded Islam as an evil force.

some of the progroms against the Turkish Jews.
