If Campbell headed up the coup it would have been a success. So you can rule out his participation.

Yeni Şafak ("New Dawn") is a conservative Turkish daily newspaper. The newspaper is known for its hardline support of president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and the AKP.[2] Yeni Şafak newspaper made it to international headlines when it was found out that the newspaper fabricated some parts of an interview done with world famous intellectual Noam Chomsky.[3] According to a report published by Hrant Dink Foundation, Yeni Şafak is one of the top three Turkish newspapers resorting to hate speech.[4][5][6] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeni_Şafak

Maybe Erdogan plans to use this as a pretext to seize Incirlik and it’s nuclear weapons. Maybe with Obama’s tacit approval. We’re so through the looking glass I rule nothing out.

It is untrue until proven true and anyone that can prove it true will soon be swimming with da fishes. However, Libya, Egypt, Syria, Turkey ? At least it was a geometric progression.

If that’s Zhukov, I’d say he earned every single one of them.

Any background on this guy?

Former Commanding General, 101st Airborne Division, at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. He had a Brigade of the 82nd in Afghanistan around 2010 when Gen Petraeus ran International Security Assistance Force there. Campbell took over that position from 2014-2016.

We will have at least one Freeper who served under him, and we get their opinion of him.

Interesting days we are living in.

Thanks for your feedback.

Who knows, with Democrats in charge for both disasters anything is possible.

I have a hard time believing this, and if true or if it is believed in Turkey whether true or not I hope our military there remains safe.

Right, I was going to say that’s Soviet Marshal Zhukov.
