There are two Turkey’s, the conservative parts are inland and remote, where few tourists ever venture to. The coastal regions are vaguely muslim. There’s a call to prayer, though I’ve never seen anyone stop what they were doing and go pray. Sadly Erdogan’s actions have been driving tourists away, which will make all the regions more isolated. My Aunt and Uncle are in the process of selling their beach house in Antalya, though its unlikely they will get anything near the price they could have gotten some years back before the tourist slump.
Thank you for the perspective. In my opinion (I’ve never been to Turkey, never expect to go), the Islamist and their terrorists are destroying Turkey. Economically, culturally and Judicially.
And the destruction is contageous. Erdogan is committed to spreading it. It is clear that is his Neo Ottoman wet dream.
