582: Eradicate Misery
Turkish Parliament Brawl, Gulenist Movement, Corruption Scandal
Fisticuffs broke out in the Turkish Parliament following a massive corruption investigation targeting ministers and bureaucrats close to Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The investigation is attributed to the Gulenist movement, led by exiled imam Fethullah Gulen, who operates a vast network of charter schools from Pennsylvania. Erdogan has characterized the protests and investigations as a civilian coup backed by international interests.
