The attempted coup against Erdogan has all the hallmarks of a failed decapitation coup. Leader escapes a bombing attack while troops that don’t know what’s going on our brought out to establish order on the streets and are soon disarmed. You can call that fake, but’s exactly how the coup attempt against Hitler played out...
In the reports that I read about the supposed coup, there never was an attack against Erdogan himself.
That was one of the “tells” that it was not a serious attempt.
I am open to learning of the attempt at decapitation.
To me, it bears all the signs of an totally compromised “coup” encouraged to happen to expose those Erdogan wanted to rid himself of, and to give him an excuse to perform a purge.
The issue is the pre compiled list. Was done over long period of time.
