After the coup, Turkey turns against America
For the most part, America had nothing to do with the coup attempt and had no idea that it was about to happen.  Honestly, the majority of Americans couldn&#x27;t find Turkey on a map even if you centered the map on Turkey.  However, I certainly wouldn&#x27;t be surprised if a few CIA types provided assistance like they&#x27;ve been known (or suspected) to do in South America and other parts of the world.  The US government clearly benefits from Turkey having a more secular government and Erdogan is moving the government towards more Islamic rule.<p>So I&#x27;m just guessing that in a few weeks a classified document will be leaked that some portion of the US government was involved in the coup attempt and American citizens will all be embarrassed that we can&#x27;t let other sovereign nations deal with their own business.<p>I hope that it doesn&#x27;t hurt our relations so much that it hurts any innocent civilians or that we restrict travel.  I hear Turkey has some cool castles and is a very interesting place to visit.  It&#x27;s relatively inexpensive and I&#x27;d like to go there one day.
