Erdogan continues to drop the hammer and clean house in Turkey as now according to new reports; Turkey has dismissed nearly 1,700 military personnel and closed more than 130 media outlets. This news comes amid a deepening crackdown that has stirred alarm among Ankara’s NATO allies following this month’s failed coup.  Erdogan has already reportedly been responsible for a total of 1,684 military personnel that have been dishonorably discharged.

Excerpt From Yahoo News:
President Tayyip Erdogan has accused U.S.-based Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen of masterminding the failed coup and authorities have already suspended, dismissed or placed under investigation more than 60,000 soldiers, police, teachers, judges and others suspected of links to the Gulen movement. Gulen denies any involvement in the coup attempt.
