And which army can you list that's never been guilty of any atrocity? 
Is 
the US Army no longer considered professional because of MY Lai or
Wounded 
Knee?  I doubt you'd go that far.  I never claimed they were perfect, or

innocent.  But they are a modern army with modern equipment, and modern 
training, and they do try to maintain a high degree of professionalism. 
Add 
to this the "Future Fiction" factor Mr. Wilson mentions, and it's well 
within the realm of realism to suggest a future Turksih army that could
hold 
it's own and not be considered barbarians.
