Hmmm..it’s going to be long night over there.
We’ll know soon enough.
Yup
Looks like it’s still up in the air. Jets apparently scrambling and scaring off protestors. All it takes is one missile at erdogans plane. Also saw that all planes turned off transponders so that coup can’t ID them.
Hey, I think we are in more agreement than I first thought.
Excellant post summary.
Maybe they could take over CNN in the USA too?
CNN Atlanta also reported some explosions in Ankara and Istanbul.
Turk is now off the air per Fox news.

Can they take over our CNN?
Vicious
you hit me with a flower
You do it every hour
oh, baby, you’re so vicious
I was out and come back to this? This is not good news. How sad that I am praying our “country” didn’t help restore Erdogan to power.
Is he sill alive?
LOL!
It’s not over, Erdogan may lose this.
The military doing the coup told their supporters to stay inside.
LOL!
“The Turkish armys assigned role under the secular government established by Ataturk was to be the protector of the secular government.”
That has been the role of the Turkish army since Atatuck. To make sure Turkey is a democrat, secular society. They are the good guys. The bad guy is the worthless president who’s a member of the Muslim Brotherhood who wants to put the country under Sharia Law. Not going to happen in Turkey. If this current coup doesn’t succeed it’s a matter of time before the people take their country back.
Yeah, I think Erdogan might have believed that he would return triumphant. If he ends up being captured, they need to execute.him.immediately.
They had to know protesters would take to the streets right?
Gather them all in one place & then..
Erdogan reported just landed. Maybe the military had a reception committee waiting for him?
According to Anderson Cooper, Turkic Coup Soldiers have entered the offices of CNN Turk. Not sure how long CNN Turk will remain on the air
Bit late for that. Not the best planned coup of all time.
