Attempted Military Coup in Turkey

[Sunni Man]

Well that's a very sad turn of events; hopefully it's just a temporary setback for the Army.

It was only a small traitorous part of the army that staged a mutiny.

They will be rounded up and executed for their treason. .....

Traditionally in Turkey the military have been a secular force for good and opposed to the Islamists

Well, I wouldn't go as far as believing they are a force for 'good', but certainly they are relative to Erdogan and the Islamo-Nazis.

That's what I am talking about!

The military in Turkey is a force for good compared to that crazy Islamo Nazi Erdogan!

I'm sure that Freeman another IslamoNazi is going to be along shortly to update everyone on the latest happenings.

Down with all religious fascist governments!!! Secular government is the only way to govern!

Erdogan was democratically elected by the Turkish people in a free and fair election.

I'm amazed at the number of people here supporting an illegal military coup? ......

Nato chief: "full respect" for Turkish government
Nato’s chief has issued a call for “full respect” for Turkey’s democratic institutions and constitution, according to the Associated Press. Nato secretary-general Jens Stoltenberg said in a statement:

I have just spoken to the Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu. I am following events in Turkey closely and with concern.

The statement continued, “I call for calm and restraint, and full respect for Turkey’s democratic institutions and its constitution. ...Turkey is a valued Nato all

Unless the police are extremely armed with tanks and a airforce. How can they have the slightest chance against the army? Go Army!!!

I've just seen on BBC Turkish police frog marching soldiers they appear to have captured.

Turkey is an important ally in the Middle east and yet we get no information from the Hussein administration. Is Barry eating pizza like he did when Benghazi was attacked?

We don't like Islamists like you, haven't you figured that out yet. Of course we support those that are trying to prevent Turkey from becoming an Islamic state.

By the way, the election wasn't free and fair, the Kurds were unable to vote.

The extent of any damage or possible injuries was not immediately clear. A resident who lived near the area told the AP that he “heard a massive explosion that shook buildings and saw a column of smoke”, but couldn’t confirm if it was coming directly from parliament. The person said fighter jets were flying low in the area.
