      Dutch Christian Democrat Arie Oostlander, argues that the existing constitution, dating from 1982, “bears the clear hallmarks of the military” and “does not lend itself to radical amendment”. “The army [in Turkey] has much more power than is acceptable for a constitutional state. The defence budget is separate from the national budget and is completely outside parliamentary control. The army has unparalleled power over business, education and the media.” I cited this from Politico.

      We should never have aimed for EU membership. It was the greatest mistake of our era. In the early 2000s, ErdoÄŸan was supported not only by conservatives but also by progressive liberals. His promises of constitutional rights for homosexuals, a free market economy, and European values were nothing but a ruse. The army should have preserved its power.

    3. Protests have started due to the appointment of a trustee to CHP’s Istanbul provincial congress (opposition).

      Some context: Remember Imamoglu? The pro-democracy, pro-Europe, secular, beloved Istanbul mayor who was detained for corruption allegation almost half a year ago and still awaits a trail in prison?

      Well, after the 13th failure of the previous leader of the CHP(Ataturk’s party, secular pro-west) he took initiative and started a change movement within the party to get rid of the old guard and find a new leader that can actually win an election. Long story short, he was successful of orchestrating the outing of the 13 times failing leader through the party congress and elections procedure. Then they won a landslide in the local elections, it was amazing. People are pretty happy about the newly elected secular mayors but Erdogan started arresting them.

      Now some of those ousted are teaming with Erdogan and claiming that the in-party elections were rigged by Imamoglu and the ethernal loser is trying to return to the party to lose one more time to Erdogan.

      These protests tonight are about courts decision to install the old losers back into the party. It is expected that tomorrow the ousted guys that the court wants to install back will come to the Istanbul branch to take it over. Police is trying to make sure that they will be able to do that, protestors are trying to stop it.

      The final full take over, not just the Istanbul branch, is expected to happen 15th of September. On that day it is expected for the court to install back the previous leader who lost to Erdogan 13 times in a row.
