I subscribe totally to the proposirion that a national leadership's (any nation) first and most important duty is the safety of its citizens.
Citizens vote for their leaders; they do not vote for the Christian Science Monitor or any other self-appointed arbiter of "proper political structure."

I have my faith and my duty to my conscience. My view of my country is entirely and distictly separate.

"Everybody must know that the Turkish armed forces will not tolerate the use of the opportunities of democracy by the enemies of the system as a means to dynamite the basic principles of our state...

That holds true for external and internal enemies of our country, as well as well-meaning domestic "Christian" idiots.
