I think this is good. Turkey was turning more Islamic, anything to reverse that is a good thing.
I am reading that Erdogan is seeking asylum in EU. https://www.google.com/search?q=Erdo...n+seeks+asylum

That was weird. They showed a clip of people in the streets ducking (but staying still) as some gunfire broke out. Gunfire stops, they stand almost as one and boo, it starts, they duck back down again (again all as one).
Looks like the coup's losing power. One thing I notice, it seems like they took their tanks/etc but for the most part don't seem to be interested in using them. I think they were trying to cow people with a show of force, seems like it's failing to have the intended effect.
Helicopter based gunfire in Ankara, Turkey's capital.

I think the title would be better if it was "Turkey, in coup" with the way a lot of people read the word
Turkey has a history of military coups. But just another example of how nuts this world has become.
