An estimated 50,000 people have been rounded up, sacked or suspended from their jobs by Turkey's government in the wake of the failed coup last week. The purge of soldiers, police and officials deemed to be less than loyal to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was extended on Tuesday to include teachers, university deans and the media. The government says they are ally to the US based preacher Fethullah Gulen, who was accused of directing the coup. Sallen Geirut in Istanbul says the extent of the arrests have raised several questions. If these people are all supporting Gulenist movements as the government suggests, how, in the first place, as they were able to infiltrate in such numbers and into such significant positions within the state bureaucracy and police force, and the army. And the question is whether Mr. Erdogan or the government is using the suppression of the coup attempt as an opportunity to further enhance their powers. President Obama has spoken to President Erdogan to offer assistance in any investigation into the failed coup. The White House said the two leaders discussed Mr. Gulen, and any potential extradition request from Turkey would be looked out under the terms of the treaty between the two countries.
