    They need to get Erdogon and they need to get him now. The Turkish Military is in control of the airwaves:

    "To again obtain Constitutional Democratic Human Rights we are officially managing the country."


    What are the Turkish sources? Erdogon and his inner circle?

    I wouldn't trust the army either...besides that most of the Generals are under arrest, so it's only half the army. Anyway I wouldn't be too sure that Erdogan is out.

    That's what I think too. Erdogan arrested many of the Generals this past week, so it's only part of the army. Everything there is so erratic. One minute Erdogan said he's going to make amends with Assad, and a few hours later the PM said that they refuse to make amends with Syria unless Assad goes. You figure!

    Odd coincidence ... after that Turkey has decided to regain good relations with Israel and Russia ... the Army makes a coup ... Are we sure it's a coincidence?

    I thought about it too but what could it mean ? they say they want to regain democracy and they know the Americans wont support then so they must hold elections in a few months.

    From Sputnik:

    Controversial President Recep Tayyip Erdogan appears to have lost control of Turkey with military forces seizing control of the state sponsored television station saying that they were forced to seize control due to what they view as dictatorial mandates by the country's leader. Calling themselves a "Peace Council" on the TRT news station, the military forces have declared that they will be announcing the country's new constitution shortly that will provide robust protections for human rights and the rule of law while laying out a transition towards democratic rule.

    The Turkish military conducted the coup on Friday evening with initial reports indicating gunfire had broken out in Istanbul and Ankara while tanks and F-16s had been deployed in an apparent attempt to put down the military coup. Turkey's Prime Minister Binali says that the government remains in control and that the coup participants will "pay dearly," but reporting on the ground by the RIA news agency corroborated by the AFP indicates that the country's President Erdogan is in a mad scramble to escape the country via the Ataturk International Airport.

    The Turkish military said that they will be reading the new constitution over television in the hours to come.
