My Way News - Power struggle escalates in Turkish coup plot case
My Way News reports: "A power struggle between Turkey's Islamic-rooted government and its fiercely secular military escalated Tuesday when a court formally charged a senior general with plotting to overthrow the civilian leadership [...] the balance of power in Turkey has tipped significantly in favor of civilian authorities, whose arrests of high-ranking military officers would have once been unimaginable [...] The party has repeatedly denied that it is trying to impose religion on politics and society. But many senior military officials view it as a threat to the strictly secular state built by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk from the ashes of the Ottoman Empire in 1923, and ferociously defended by the army since then."
