The Turkish military is a shell of its former self. The Ataturk spirit is gone. They have allowed Islamists bring the Turkish state to ruins. Time is rapidly running out.

Man, you're talking a lot of BS lately.

And Turkey is not the only country that is happening in. Other countries in the Middle East should look at Turkey and see what happens when you let the fundamentalists take control.

**They have allowed Islamists bring the Turkish state to ruins.**

Sadly, I'm concerned that you may be correct. Attaturk (sp?) as the Father of modern secular Turkey, is likely rolling in his grave. He knew the dangers involved with allowing religion to mix with effective government and was adamant about the separation of such.

I think Turkey will regret this soon and will keep regretting it for a very long time. Unfortunately we are likely seeing the decay of a democracy under the sandals of Islam.
