تحقیرارتش ترکیه به نفع اردوغان نخواهدبود
تحلیل های هوشمندانۀ بسیاری درموردکودتای نافرجام ترکیه شده است. امّاآنچه بلافاصله پس ازکودتااتفاق افتاد آیندۀ خوبی رابرای اردوغان وهواداران اش درپی نخواهدداشت. پس ازتشکیل جمهوری ترکیه، ارتش به نهادی مقدس، پشتیبان قانون اساسی سکولار، وزنندۀ حرف آخردرصحنۀ سیاسی ترکیه تبدیل شد. اگربه این عکس هانگاه کنید، خواهیددیدکه چگونه عده ای که درویدئو هاهم نشان داده شد به شیوۀ داعشی ها وجبهۀ نصرتی هاشعارالله اکبرسرمی دادند سربازان ترک را به شکلی حرفه یی شلاق می زنند. سربازهائی که اغلب می گفتندتصّور می کردند که دریک مانورنظامی شرکت کرده اند. تحقیر این سربازان درجلودوربین هایعنی تحقیر ارتش ترکیه. ارتشی که تحقیرشود وروحیۀ خودراازدست بدهد، خوب نخواهدجنگید. این می تواندآغازپایان کار اردوغان وحتاکشوری بنام ترکیه به شکل کنونی باشد.
Turkey coup attempt: Crowds confront soldiers on Bosphorus Bridge
During the failed coup in Turkey, the Bosphorus Bridge in Istanbul became the scene of a confrontation between soldiers trying to overthrow the government, and a group of supporters of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
The struggle for this symbolic landmark, which connects Europe and Asia, resulted in fierce fighting between the two sides.

President Erdogan urged people to get onto the streets in Ankara and Istanbul, to combat the coup – and many of them flocked to the bridge. The soldiers shot at them and there were some casualties.
