You mean they are clearing out the military men that might not support a recreation of a radical Muslim Ottoman Empire.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Russian are involved. They're the ones who've been trying to break up the Turkish-US alliance for decades, even as they build on their alliance-of convenience with the Iranian mullahs and give weapons and explosives to the PKK.
It still amazes me just how long are the shadows of history in the affairs of mankind. So it is not entirely surprising to find echos of the pride and ambitions of the Ottoman empire still lurking in the public conscience of the Turkish people.
The EU stupidly did not let Turkey into the EU. That decision will come to haunt them in the future. Turkey will become a regional power and a leader in the Islamic word. The Europeans allowed racism to cloud their thinking. I admire the Turks and there is no reason why my country , the US, won't continue having good relations with the Turks.
The europeans do not accept each other for them to accept Turkey they would not even bail each other out of a crisis or even help greece. so much for the euro "union" ay
@chairde thank you! I totallyy agree with you
