It’s a the middle east, it’s always a mess. Erdogan sucks, but there’s a 612% chance that whoever overthrows him will also suck.

The military is a force for moderation in Turkey. This is a good thing.

Not necessarily. Erdogan is an Islamist. The Turkish military have always been secularist.
Stay tuned!
