There is a long history of Military coups in Turkey. I was told that if the civilian gov’t of the day was moving away from the principals laid down by the Ataturk, Turkish Constitution authorised the Military to take over. However this was changed by the Erdogan.
I only have one Turkish friend who said only last month that many Turks feel that Erdogan’s Islamization was against the concept of modern Turkey as envisaged by Ataturk. However my friend is a hard core secularist and his opinions could be biased.
Turkey is a modern country with a large middle class and eventually will of the Turkish people should prevail. It is not for me to comment on what Turkish people eventually decide
All I pray for is that there should be no blood-shed. I love Turkey & Turkish people and will continue to do so regardless of what happens
