"Thirty years to the day after Turkish generals seized power in a coup that shattered civil society and resulted in the death and torture of thousands, voters will go to the polls to vote on amendments to the anti-democratic constitution the generals imposed before leaving................."

Many like to hold up Turkey as the great example of the secular Islamic State. We've had many posts here over the years about Turkey's slow march into the Islamist's camp.

About 4 years ago the propaganda campaign against the Military and it's leaders began. We now see the fruit of it's actions.

The "anti-democratic constitution" will be changed. Changed to what?
