#1 Has this made any waves in the MSM? I don't get the newspaper anymore and I can't endure TV ~~entertainment~~ news. This is, by any measure, "news", However, I would not even know this was happening unless I read the Internet.

#2 "They want to drag Turkey to the dark ages"

They want to drag the whole world into the dark ages.

This story appeared in our local newspaper this morning. It is indeed interesting news.

#3 "Erdogans government rejected the militarys warning about the countrys disputed presidential election and called it interference that is unacceptable in a democracy."

If Ergodan steers the Turkish government to Islamism, then Turkey will no longer be a democracy. If that occurs, then the Turkish military should do all it can to restore Ataturk's legacy.

#4 The Turkish army are the proverbial Dutch boy with his finger in the dyke. At some point, the place is going to flood.

#8 The longer the Turkish Army waits to clean house, the dirtier the house is going to be.

Someone at the Whitehouse might want to send them a similar message. Along with promising significant assistance in cleaning out the radicals. We've got solid experience in Orc COIN now, so Turkey could learn a lot.
