Links in German, but it's reliable. If you're old enough, it's not the first time this is happening. It's a peculiar situation with Turkey's military. They're kind of their supreme court when the constitution seems in danger. Let's see if it works out this time round, since Erdogan did his utmost to pull the teeth of the armed forces when he came to power. Worst case would be civil war.
