0bama is pushing the message.

If true, Turkey is gone. The MB will take over.

The Muslim Brotherhood used to be known as the 1923, when that group started, HQ’d in Egypt, with another group in Turkey.

Then, it moved a European HQ to London and has its US HQ in Chicago.

The principal goal of the MB is the caliphate-with leadership in Istanbul. Always.

This all goes back to Ataturk. The Ottoman Sultanate ended on November 1, 1922, and the Republic of Turkey on October 29, 1923, with Ataturk as the head of it.

Really weird - Erdies’ hair is now longer than he had it when he did his live skype like plea to the people earlier. Either his hair grows at warp speed or the ‘Live’ broadcast isn’t live.

So they think the guy behind the coup is a guy in Pennsylvania. Crazy.

I posted earlier that the muzzies controlled the airport and it was obvious what was going to happen. But my thread was pulled - ONCE AGAIN.

“The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers.” Erdogan has also told Turkish immigrants in Germany that “assimilation is a crime against humanity.”

“And it is the Turkish government that is paying up to $40 million for a super mosque in Germany.”

What would be more useful in an Islamist led military coup but to pretend it’s secularist to weed out the secularists in all quarters. Makes sense.

“Turkey is not a country where moderate Islam is sovereign. First of all, the ‘moderate Islam’ concept is wrong. The word ‘Islam’ is a simple word — it is only Islam. If you say ‘moderate Islam,’ then an alternative is created, and that is ‘immoderate Islam.’ I cannot accept such a concept as a Muslim. Islam rejects excessivenesses. I am not a radical Muslim. We are Muslims who have found a middle road.”

Tell everyone you know that Islam is simply Islam. There is no Western ‘moderation’ or ‘extremism.’ Or ‘radical’ or Islamism. These are Western nothing words for concepts that are not part of Islam. We do not speak the language.

It appears that the coup has failed.

Apparently, the Military bombed the hotel Erdogan was vacationing at, but missed him.

What makes you say that? The biggest mistake was not killing Erdogan immediately.

I’m not one to buy into conspiracy theories but I wonder. One report said coup only had about 100 troops behind it. One thing for sure if it was legit and failed the regime will go full Morsi.

Quote===>. “Erdogan called the coup a “gift from God” because it will help Turkey clean out the military from the “members of this gang.” The timing of the coup was “meaningful,” because the military will start meetings in the beginning of August, and those who staged the coup were afraid of the decisions that would be made at those meetings, Erdogan said.
This is not old Turkey,” he said. “This is new Turkey.”<===

“He consolidates power and accelerates movement to full Islamist Sharia law. In the meantime at the White House Obama celebrates with a round of golf.”

And even more to the point, Turkey will become ISIS new safe home, and the refugee road continues on for the takeover of Europe. There’s a lot bad that may be happening tonight as Erdogan steps on the gas of Turkey’s radicalization.

< Must have been Obama’s support.

I imagine Erdogan and Obama have been burning up the phone lines with Soros conferenced in.
