This coup, which appears to have been a last gasp of the military to remove Erdogan, will give the president the excuses he needs to complete his purges of political rivals and take over the rest of the press and dissolve what remains of the secular democracy and replace it with an Islamist autocracy.
Guy is pretty much an enactment of a 21st century playbook of how the Nazis came to power:
>1: Prey on fears of an ethnic minority (in this case Kurds)
>2: Gain control of government under seemingly moderate banner (The ‘Justice and Development’ Party)
>3: Increase the power of the executive at the expense of the legislature (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/may…)
>4: Purge anyone who may present a threat and neuter the military (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-eur…)
>5: Slowly reduce civil liberties, largely under the excuse of ‘terrorist threats’, while leaving your own zealots unchecked (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/eur…) (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jun…) (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-eur…)
>6: Install yourself as de facto autocrat under the illusion of a parliamentary democracy
So what's the problem?

There is always a great risk involved when playing the game of international geopolitics.
What goes around comes around, and when the playing field is that large, that mess you made in your neighbor's backyard could easily find it's way into yours.

Could someone with more insight in geopolitics explain me why Obama/U.S supports Erdogan.
If the same would have happened in any other (Islamist) country, the Big Nig would have given his support to the rebels/coup

Except, you faggot, Hitler never hid his motives. His platform from the start was to become the total leader.
He never did half the things you said, and you're a faggot for using Hitler as an example of "le evul dictator"

In this ass backwards case, the government is the jihad sandniggers and the rebellion is the secular side. Secular middle eastern nations are harder to crush under the globalist agenda than Islamic theocracies, so that's the one the government supports and has been empowering for decades

Meh, Iran is the best bulwark against globalists, and it's among the most theocratic nations there.

Simple answer: the USA always, always, _always_ supports fundamental Sunni Islam in every conflict.

I'm guessing it's because they're in NATO
