So Turkey’s government wants to move more towards an Islamic based law system where as the military wants to maintain things on a secular level? Am I following correctly?

Watching this on TV and trying to understand what’s going on. Sounds like the military and the government have been having issues with each other for a while.

That is my understanding. Apparently, part of the core duties of the military is to ensure the country maintains a democratic stance.

They lit the bridge in sympathy of the attack in Nice this morning and now there are tanks on the bridge in the heart of Instanbul.
