“— He would never have flown back into Turkey airspace if his troops were not in control of air space and airport. —

Exactly true. “

Or if he ran out of options to land elsewhere.

[Yaelle]

Sounds on CNN that Erdogan is back in power.

Damn.

[Mjreagan]

I doubt he was ever out of power.

[IVAXMAN]

Except there is video of him mingling with a large crowd upon arival

[Krosan]

What about the news earlier that the military part of the coup was Gulenist faction inside military. They are islamists too.

[Zeneta]

To be honest.

I’m having a really difficult time trying to understand how there are so many Media outlets present at this “press conference”.

It makes no sense.

[IVAXMAN]

That too is a possibility. Now he consolidates power.

[AllAmericanGirl44]

A dear Kurdish friend of mine stated “wouldn’t be surprised if Erogan didn’t stage this himself”. Not sure what to make of any of it, just started reading now.

[Enlightened1]

Erdogan talking like a madman. Says his secretary has been taken, yada. Urging people to fight

[Yaelle]

Bummer.

[Cboldt]

The press reports on CNN are showing only Istanbul, not Ankara.

I think your speculation is pretty good. Some fraction (top to bottom) of the military was fed up, and had nothing to lose.

Has Avrat @hasavrat Erdoğan: "This event (coup) is the grace of God. We will cleanse traitors from within TSK." https://twitter.com/sahmetsahmet/status/754123510944071681 … 9:26 PM - 15 Jul 2016

ISIS has won. Turkey will become an Islamic theocracy. Too bad for the Turkish people and the rest of us.

[virgil]

Well, Obama is celebrating anyway. That’s all that matters. /s

[Georgia Girl 2]

Drudge headline says coup failed.

[Obama_Is_Sabotaging_America]

I’m beginning to think Erdogan plotted this ‘faux’ coup in order to justify Martial Law and aggressive punishment of his dissenters.

[IVAXMAN]

Gulenist faction accusation is cover to get the Turks on Erdogan’s side. He said that while out of the country when he was not sure of the extent of the coup to get a popular uprising against the coup....it’s all not true....this was a small fraction of the military coup that hoped the rest of the military would join in and the did not...
