If the Turkish military is doing a coup it is probably anti Islamist, anti Caliphate. Turkey’s military has stood for secular govt since Attaturk..... although Erdogan has imposed his own preferred Generals in recent years, so it could all be pretty screwed up now.

Fed up with a nation heading towards strict Islamic rule and after the bombing of the airport even more so.

According to Wikipedia, there are 90 B61 nuclear bombs from the US arsenal stationed in Turkey. 40 of these are at disposal of the Turkish army, which may use them in case of a nuclear conflict, but only if NATO gives a go-ahead: Turkish Armed Forces

Is there any chance of loss of control of the nukes???

Incirlik?

DEFCON "oh sh!t" : this could get *really* nasty, especially with, umm, giants, like Obama and Hillary, in the loop.

Yeah, giants, that's the ticket.

...and Biden.

Christiane Amanpour on CNN is in a state of panic.

A very positive and encouraging development.

“Erdogan purged the senior officers a few years ago and put in generals he thought would be loyal to his islamic government.”

He let the old top brass out of jail about a year ago in a deal to fight the Kurds.

I hope that they can restore the Republic.

Prayers up.

Erdogan is a crypto-Islamist. He is not that secular.

Muzzie Brotherhood SOB Erdogan will be gone! Expect Egypt to be the first to recognize the new military government, possibly Russia is second.

ISIS end is near. 0b0z0’s ally is gone.

Things are looking up in spite of 0b0z0’s wishes.

Thanks, Melancholy.
