To be more precise; gülen - liberals - Erdoğan coalition launced a cleaning campaign on old military beurocratic ruling class, under the meme case 'Ergenekon' (name comes from a nationalists myth about the rise of Turks from inner asia and their flow to West and anatolia). They declared old state class as terörist, including all army, highest level beurocrats got arrested as terrorists. Then Erdoğan broke with first liberals which were controlled by Gülen and CIA. Then gülen-CIA led legal and police operations came as waves of offense to take down Erdogan. All kinds of deception and info war tactics were witnessed in last 5 years. This time again the same high level posts in army, jurisdiction, beurocracy, media and education declared as members of a terrorist organization and mass arrests wave renewed. Seems like the distinction between terrorist organization and state blurred and dissolved. sure this has been happening at times of revolutions and wars all the time, since the emergence of the state concept which is based on 'property', as opposite of the commons. Therefore the core logic of state in general, but especially capitalist nation state has always been based on criminal activities, destroying the commons in favor of the benefit of private individuals; holding power through the market and the state. Solution the new movements find, and earth needs way outside these two. Communization of the state means its simultaneous dissolution on the road to dignity.
