Of course.

But the fact that people in one of the countries typically touted as one of the "good" ones feel inclined to resort to this in the first place isn't exactly a point in Islam's favour. Nor in Turkey's.

Are you actually suggesting that the West didn't support them because if you do you are going against that they publicly did support the "moderate" Muslims

Yeah, he just got his Reichstag Fire at the best possible time. Like it or not, he's a radical, but democratically elected president fighting a radical army faction with a reputation for upending elected governments. And people don't want the latter more.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.
