Turkey

I can say this. If any British government started doing what Erdogan's has in the UK, the British military would probably do the same.

Rampant corruption. Jailing of the journalists simply for parodying a political leader. Massive subversion of the law.


Its not going to happen mind. Too many institutions in the UK and a 'effective opposition' are designed to ensure good government.

However, all the above negatives - is that is what has been happening in Turkey.


Yet people seem to blame the Turkish military.

I've been serving in the military for over 10 years. My wife has been also. I can confirm you are talking rubbish. Absolute garbage.

 

[Darth Vader]

Yes they would.

Makes me glad I'm British.

How lucky we are.

No, really they wouldn't

90% of our forces would give two shinny you know what

Big question is will Erdogans ISIS mates take to the streets?

To be fair, you have never (and to my mind no British military) been in the situation where your head of state is someone like him.

In your opinion.

I made it clear. IF some of the things going on under Erdogan were happening.

They're not. So pipe down

I do. Back to the Brexit thread you go.

I do. Back to the Brexit thread you go.

So you know what would happen regarding our military in an event that has never occurred

Yes. Stands to reason.
