Lets see how this works out and wait for Obama to say something before we know who's side to support. This will effect NATO and the EU.

Hard to say, but may be a good thing.

Turkish leader Ergodan has been imposed more strict Islamic law, has been hostile to Israel, and has been sympathetic to ISIS.

Hopefully the Turkish military will make some executions that are long overdue. Democracy is a farce in certain countries.

Let us not forget that Erdogan’s son is basically ISIS’s oil fence.

I doubt this will affect Turkey’s chances of joining the EU.

If I understand it correctly fox is reporting the military coop has to do a lot in part because of immigration. They fear civil unrest...I did not get all of it just that snippet. The world is burning and our leaders don’t give a chit! Like Hillary said we have to import 1/2 million refugees in America so that we can know what their intentions are so that we can analyze it or like Lynch said we must kill them with loving kindness!! IDOITS!!! America is next!! Don’t think for one minute it cannot happen here it will happen problem is when!

Tyrannical militant muslim comes into power.

Maybe our military could learn something from the Turks.

Only one thing is certain - once the Turkish military hears Obama’s professorial stuttering comments on the coup, and once they realize that they have made John Kerry VERY, VERY upset, they will immediately back down and restore Erdogan to power.
