The fall-out from last week’s failed coup d’etat in Turkey has been more gruesome than many imagined, as pro-government AKP and Muslim Brotherhood supporters have taken to the streets to administer an ‘ISIS-like’ brand of justice, apparently, doing so on behalf of the ruling party.
What many feared would happen has already come to fruition: President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan (image, left) has moved ahead with a brutal crack-down on dissent in further consolidation of power.
A massive purge of the President’s political opposition began on Saturday morning, with orders issued for the round-up of at least 3,000 troops to date who are suspected of playing a role in the coup plot, along with a further 2,700 arrest warrants issued for judges – a clear sign that no one will be offered a fair defense or trial by the Erdogan government. In total 6,000 people have been arrested on suspected treason charges. That number is expected to grow by Monday.
The President, who often invokes a political brand of Islam, proceeded to invoke God while administering the ongoing purge:
“This uprising is a gift from God to us because this will be a reason to cleanse our army.”
As 21WIRE reported yesterday, the embattled Turkish President and his party, have ignited street violence through their network of politically-affiliated Imams in Mosques, effectively deploying the President’s street army of AKP supporters and Muslim Brotherhood followers, to hunt down and punish any military and civilian dissidents. On top of that, the government has appeared to have issued ‘stand down’ orders to police forces, regarding AKP and Muslim Brotherhood ‘street justice’, thus allowing the torturing and public slaughtering of any unarmed, low-level military employees.
Erdogan called Hitler’s Germany a Model for Constitutional Reform
This amounts to state-sanctioned mobs exacting violent political retribution – not unlike the US-backed, violent NeoNazi street mobs in the Ukraine which were unleashed to carry out political lustration under the newly installed fascist-oriented government in Kiev. What makes the scene in Turkey more dangerous though, is the injection of a radical pseudo-religious agenda being fostered by the Erdogan leadership.
Other reports are also suggesting that pro-government Islamist mobs have also carried out street beheadings of low-level military:
“A Turkish soldier has reportedly been beheaded on Istanbul’s Bosphorus Bridge by a pro-government mob. Graphic video footage and images online show the soldier lying on the ground surrounded by a pool of blood.” Watch:
The following is a brief news report and images supplied by the online news agency AMN:
