Good bye to a Turkey that at least played lip service to secular society. Any liberal or secular opposition has been effectively .
FTFY.
As in, your head is being suspended from your body.
The suspicion for this is rooted in several observations:
1. About 30,000 people so far have been arrested or fired from their jobs. The lists of those people were clearly compiled before this 'coup' occured.
2. The military of Turkey has never failed to oust an extremist government before and in this coup attempt it was clear that at least a third of the military sat it out.
3. The 'organizer' of the coup (Gulen) is a moderate cleric living in the USA who has long opposed extremism...if he opposed Erdogan in favor of the secular military then it's not Gulen who's the extremist.
4. Erdogan personally approved of using the Hagia Sophia as a mosque again...a symbolic decision that returned Constantinople to Islamic rule and he's being celebrated as the new Caliph in Sunni circles. He's also made statements that encourage the invasions of Spain and Italy by Muslims.
I think the real coup wasn't done by the military but by Erdogan and I am firmly convinced that we're about to see Turkey become something along the lines of Iran: a theocratic state.

Around 50,000 soldiers, police, judges, civil servants and teachers have been suspended or detained since the coup attempt, stirring tensions across the country of 80 million which borders Syria's chaos and is a Western ally against Islamic State.
"This parallel terrorist organisation will no longer be an effective pawn for any country," Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said, referring to what the government has long alleged is a state within a state controlled by followers of Fethullah Gulen.
"We will dig them up by their roots," he told parliament.
The bloodbath will start shortly...if it hasn't already.

50,000 people now.
Turkish media announced that:
15,200 teachers and other education staff had been sacked
1,577 university deans were ordered to resign
8,777 interior ministry workers were dismissed
1,500 staff in the finance ministry had been fired
257 people working in the prime minister's office were sacked
Turkey's media regulation body on Tuesday also revoked the licences of 24 radio and TV channels accused of links to Mr Gulen.
The news came on top of the arrests of more than 6,000 military personal and the sackings of nearly 9,000 police officers. About 3,000 judges have also been suspended.
President Erdogan is meeting with loyal commanders and his cabinet in Ankara.
Authorities have banned all academics from travelling abroad, as the purge of state employees suspected of being connected to the failed coup continues.
More than 50,000 people have been rounded up, sacked or suspended.
So far about 1,577 university deans (faculty heads) have been asked to resign in addition to 21,000 teachers and 15,000 education ministry officials.
They are suspected of having links to the alleged mastermind of the coup, US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen - who denies any involvement.
Getting to Stalin levels soon.
