Turkey's parliament speaker seeks religious constitution
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016...-constitution/
"Turkey should have a religious constitution, parliament speaker Ismail Kahraman said on Monday, in comments that will likely add to concerns of creeping Islamisation under the ruling AKP party.
"As a Muslim country, why should we be in a situation where we are in retreat from religion?" state-run news agency Anatolia quoted him as saying.
"We are a Muslim country. As a consequence, we must have a religious constitution," the AKP lawmaker told a conference in Istanbul.
"Secularism cannot feature in the new constitution."....."
We have been talking about Turkey's slide for at least the past 10 years. Been a slow slide, but a continuous slide.
The first big step was purging the Military of those that followed the constitution, stacking the courts then replacing leaders in the schools.
All of this was going on while Europe and the US debated Turkey's membership on NATO.
