Turkey and Erdogan: Here comes the (real) caliphate

a reply to: amicktd

I have been there and know firsthand what a dangerous and backward place it truly is.

I would not be surprised if Erdogan was pushing for a caliphate, or something closer to that at all, if he takes into consideration the opinions of the public outside of the metropolitan areas.

I was glad to leave there after 2 weeks, and that was like 33 years ago.

When I left, it felt almost as if I were escaping the place.
