Coup Underway in Turkey

[Paul Rigby]

One interpretation of the puzzling nature of the attempted coup that can reconcile the inconsistencies is this - that the real target of its US sponsors was not Erdogan, but the Turkish military. In allowing Erodgan to survive, vengeance against the military, the historic guarantor of the nation's increasingly imperiled secularism, was guaranteed and is duly in train.

The cloaked objective of Washington's deep state, therefore, is the collapse of the Turkish nation-state, presumably in favour of a pseudo-Caliphate.

Seems they've twigged and are curtailing the purge of the military. If so, good news:

On the other hand, there is the process of reforming of the army. In this issue, we need to be careful. Turkey needs a stable and strong army, especially in the conditions of its war on terrorism. However, after the coup some politicians wanted to punish the Army. But they should remember that the majority of it came against the coup and supported the legitimate authority. Thanks to the loyalty of the army, the coup plotters failed to carry out their plan. We need a strong, stable army. Its weakening is lucrative to Gulen followers and America.
