Erdogan going after rivals

[Porpoise101]

Tayyip Erdogan, leader of Turkey, his feelings hurt after being compared to Gollum, needed to take his anger out on someone. Who better to do that then at the leader of the Kurdish Democratic Party. Yes, Erdogan is removing his rivals from office. What are your thoughts on this and the future of Turkey and the Middle East?

I'm heading for Istanbul some time in 2016, time to see whether Turks find the comparison funny or not because it's so accurate. :D
