No major news media story. But a quick google search shows: Twitter, Facebook and YouTube were all blocked at 10:50 PM (local?). The other half of the page says, "Prime minister on TV apparently said "this is an insurgency". So coup, at least attempt. Unresolved" from Twitter user.

This is truly breaking news! Stay safe.



That has been confirmed, I was surprised by the News of gunshots in Istanbul though.

Al Jazeera aired footage of people chasing soldiers in Taksim Square. The soldiers backed up and began firing into the air, but it didn't deter the protestors.

So....

NATO... All that stuff going on with Russia...

I can't help wondering what the ripple effect might be?

I have family who lived there decades ago, and from all they've said about Turkey, it's always seemed a little less than....fully stable, I guess?



Of course, it's horrible for the people who have to live with it, now, but what is the fall-out from this? This doesn't bode well.

It's so confusing looks like some people on CNN are trying to help Military through and cheering them and others are throwing bottles and hitting the trucks...


Are those the military supporting the coup or the part of the military that are anti coup.

I'm not a fan of his by any means.

Putin and Obama agree Erdogan must go.

Posted March 22, 2016

Kerry had a long meeting with Putin yesterday/last night in Russia. I'm under the impression it was an emergency visit but I'm not positive.

Edited to Add another link. Some may not like the one I first included. I know this was said earlier this year (Erdogan must go) because I remember hearing it.

I think it is too early to declare the coup over, however i am only relaying information.

IF this coup fails.

Turkey will only become more radicalized.

Not good.

The military is secular.

They want a restoration back to it.

E must go.
