    On Saturday morning, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the emir of Qatar, called Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to congratulate him on the Turkish people’s victory over the coup plotters.

    The emir went on to condemn the failed coup attempt, voicing Qatar’s solidarity with the "brotherly Republic of Turkey" and its support for all actions taken by the latter to safeguard its security, constitutional legitimacy and rule of law.

    The Saudi Foreign Ministry, for its part, in a statement published by the Saudi Press Agency, also welcomed "the return to normalcy in Turkey under the leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and the elected government within the framework of constitutional legitimacy and according to the will of the Turkish people".

    The news agency went on to quote a Foreign Ministry source as saying that a successful coup against Turkey’s elected government would have "destabilized the country and harmed the prosperity of its people".

    Eight men and officers from the coup have escaped to Greece for asylum. The helicopter was returned, but Erdogan has issued a threat that if the men are not returned that they will break off relations.

    Tsipras is in a spot, and even considered returning them and is now discussing it with the American embassy. It seems the final decision will be made in Washington. In the meantime the Greek armed forces remains on high alert knowing how Turkey makes a habit of exporting its crisis'.

    According to your Sunni propaganda sheet, the Greek government will now extradite the 8 officers and men involved in the coup ...that is if it was really a coup, and not just another farce by the 'messiah' Erdogan so he could grab even more power and start killing off those he doesn't want.

    He is now a very dangerous man, even more so than Adoph Hitler for he and his following have a messianic vision of him, and that he was chosen to re-establish the Ottoman Empire. As his head swells even more so, and he strives in his quest to divide the Aegean, he better pay heed to Vladimir Putin's warning ...unless he wants to lose Istanbul.

    Frankly I give Turkey two more years, before it disappears completely from the map.

    Oh so over 2700 Judges Erdogan fires. But were suppose to believe they were all in on it to, huh?



    Erdogan Fires Over 2,700 Judges Following Coup Attempt.....

    Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is back in Turkey after the military tried and failed to stage a coup. Erdogan is taking extreme measures, including firing over 2,745 judges, reports The Independent.

    Additionally, almost 3,000 military personnel have been detained by Erdogan's government and the colonels and generals involved in the coup have been fired. The president said faction leaders will "pay a heavy price."

    Analysts following the coup attempt are noting how prepared Erdogan seems to be - much more so than the plotters......snip~

    There are thousands of wounded, and thousands are being arrested who might not have had anything to do with the coup. Erdogan and his government are accusing Fetullah Gullen who lives in Pennsylvania and is involved with the CIA. He has top schools all over the world and especially in Turkey, and has a mass following among his former students.

    The US is now convening a security meeting over the accusations. I know that Victoria Nuland wrote Erdogan a nasty letter when he apologized to Vladimir Putin... so one never knows. This wouldn't be the first time the regime change freaks have been involved in Turkey. It's been going on for years.

    Turkey is one of these cases where you don't know who the real villain is, the regime change freaks and CIA, or a megalomaniac tyrant? :lol:

    Turkey Cuts Off Power To Incirlik Air Base, Grounding Anti-ISIS Air Operations.....

    Anti-ISIS operations from Incirlik Air Base are grounded until further notice after Turkey cut off external power and established a no fly over the installation. This comes after a military coup failed to remove President Tayyip Erdogan from power last night. ABC News reported that a Pentagon spokesman said that internal power sources are being used at Incirlik, and that U.S. military personnel are not in any immediate danger. They’re working with the Turkish government in the hopes of resuming air strikes against ISIS. Incirlik is also unqiue in that tactical nuclear weapons are housed on base.

    The news organization added that 2,200 U.S. military members are in Turkey, with 1,500 being stationed at Incirlik. They've been placed on Force Protection Condition Delta since the coup began last night. The alert usually is issued when a terrorist attack has occurred or could occur to military installations. All military installations were place on condition Delta status during the 9/11 attacks.

    "Turkish government has closed its airspace to military aircraft, and as a result air operations at Incirlik Air Base have been halted at this time," Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook told ABC News. "In the meantime, U.S. Central Command is adjusting flight operations in the counter-ISIL campaign to minimize any effects on the campaign.".....snip~
