Reports Erdogan took off again.
Both weasels
Yes I won’t be sorry to see Erdogan gone but reports are that the coup is not going well.
Always. Syria. Iran. Turkey. Libya. Egypt. Europe and USA.
Shoot it down!
WHHHAAAT?
I can’t see Russia standing by.
This represents an unparalled opportunity for them to gain access to the entire Trukish Straits (the Dardanelles, Sea of Marmara and the Bosphorus).
They already have Crimea and the Black Sea.
Peters speaks the truth.
Lets see how this plays out and where our so-called Western leaders align themselves.
whoaaa!

The general point or objective is to control reports and information leaving and entering the country. The extent the press and internet are "distrupted" is evidence of how successful the coup is.
Reuters.
Erdogan is trapped in the airport.
I understand the implied message. Staging this and losing will also get these men a death sentence. They in effect have taken a shot at the king. They might as well have done it literally as well.
If they’re Turkish military, they have access to Erdogan or at least no where he’d be. Killing him should’ve been part of the overall strategy. There’s no added risk, even if the decapitation strike fails you still move on with their current planning.
Yes.
Gamal Abdel Nasser Hussein was the second President of Egypt, serving from 1956 until his death. Nasser led the 1952 overthrow of the monarchy and introduced far-reaching land reforms the following year.
Following Egypt's defeat by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War, Nasser resigned, but he returned to office after popular demonstrations called for his reinstatement. By 1968, Nasser had appointed himself prime minister, launched the War of Attrition to regain lost territory, began a process of depoliticizing the military, and issued a set of political liberalization reforms. After the conclusion of the 1970 Arab League summit, Nasser suffered a heart attack and died. His funeral in Cairo drew five million mourners and an outpouring of grief across the Arab world.
