Kempsy3
I'm not usually a conspiracy theorist but I have to agree with you that something doesn't feel right . I have wondered too about the 3,000 judges and there place in this. Their sacking makes me wonder what it is about them that Erdogan doesn't want in his country. Could he be planning a deeper form of Sharia law? That would not be surprising given his Islamist outlook. I can't pretend to have any inside knowledge of modern day Turkey - I spent several weeks there as a hippy in the 60's and found the people kind and welcoming.
Watching and reading copious accounts of what has occurred however, just makes me feel that there is more to this so-called 'coup' than meets the eye.Erdogan is a tricky , backward looking authoritarian who mis - uses the term 'democracy' for his own distasteful ends. I'd put nothing past this man.
