It seems the world has gone to shit since Obama took over... Russia stole Crimea. ISIS surged, European countries are building fences around each other to stop immigration rom Syria. The UK bailed on the EU, North Korea became a nuclear power, Iran got offered a an amazing deal, now the Turkish military is pulling the plug on the government...
And here I thought the US presence around the world was supposed to keep the world "stable". Too much inaction from the President.
What has Canada done for me lately?
There's nothing we can do. You're the ones with the army

It's a coup because the leader of turkey is on the verge of a dictatorship. It's not that complicated.

There are reports of the Army fighting the police.

That's not good if it's true... It seems the military is pretty split by this event - and I would assume the pro-government forces are the ones firing on civilians in panic.

I don't think so, even liberals in the EU don't think it's a sensible idea.

Gotta be more to it or they would have simply killed the leader. Seems a bit too perfect with him being out of the country at the time. US bases in Turkey are on their highest alert. Doesn't appear to be a US led coup.

He's not out of the country. He's on vacation. That's how most coups happen. This is pretty textbook.

That video isn't fully clear we don't know who was on the bridge and who fired at whom.
Fighter jets are shooting down helicopters.... 20 cops killed storming a special forces base.....

This is kinda how the Turkish government was designed. The military has some authority to overthrow non democratic governments.
