Turkey's Secular Democracy Under Threat!

Turkey's Constitution provides for the Separation Of Powers. That is The Parliament, The Judiciary, and the Military institutions.

Historically, the military have intervened when they felt that the Secular aspect that the Constitution Caters to was under threat by the political administration in power.

Today, there are TWO segments in the general commonweal that are seeking prominence. And they are those who want a more religious or Conservative approach to governance, and those that feel the Secular aspect is under threat.

These two camps are basically how the general population is divided.

Neutralization Of The Armed Forces:

It seems like the political administration is trying to neutralize any perceived threat coming from within the military. I also believe that if such threats are neutralized, the platform for the dictatorship over the proletariat by the ruling political elite can be solidified.

This divide has many smaller segments that also contribute to the confusion, and lack of clarity in this national political dilemma.
