Unless the Kurds decide to mobilize their entire army while going in coalition with someone else (YEAH RIGHT) I don't really see this happening.
Is that a call to prayer I can hear on the bridge livestream? Adds a whole nother level of surreality to it all.
This is how World Wars start

This is a stream of the protestors that got the tank.

Are those Erdogan sympathizers on the bridge? Why are they seemingly semi-okay with being shot at.

They seem to be shooting at the air to disperse or scare off the crowd.
I can't see any body lying around so that's my conclusion.
BTW, Europe is going to be completely fucked up in 3-4 years if this keeps escalating. The refugees it might generate will make the Syrians # of refugees look tiny.

I think they should be opportunistic, this is a solid shot at what they've wanted for decades. They're supported by the west p much afaik.

This isn't the first time turkey's had a coup apparently. So I wouldn't could on it.
What looks like an armoured police vehicle just rolled up on the Periscope livestream, crowd seems happy to see it.

It really, really isn't. Sorry, kiddo, but there prolly won't be a world war 'till you got a couple hairs on your balls.

Yes, mosques are calling people to prayer though the exact intentions are unknown

This is the "funny" thing about these kind of coups.
You can't know who the fuck is who and everybody is in a extreme level of tension just because they can't trust each other. Military who support the coup may even have a stand off against each other just because they aren't in the loop.

those weren't warning shots
you can see someone flopping to the ground at 13 seconds in
I don't blame the Erdogan supporters for fighting back. I think it's good that they're fighting back against what they think is oppression and an attempt to destroy their democracy even though they're Erdogan is the one that's been shitting on them.
It's like "hey great spirit but you're fighting the wrong guys"

I'm pretty sure I saw people drag others around, so the crowd may have been shot at unfortunately...

At worst this'll become some sort of civil war. No way in hell another world war breaks out because of this.

Even coups to get rid of shitty leaders aren't necessarily good. Remember- he is democratically elected.
So the heli from earlier was shooting at the central intel building

He's "democractically" elected, along with being an oppressive scum bag. By this logic fighting Hitler was wrong because he was "democractically elected"
Not to mention that if Turkey breaks down ISIS is going to flood in and capitalize on pissed off Islamist's. This is an incredibly risky move.

pay close attention to the man in white on the left -- he drops down before anyone else and never gets back up even when others start to do so
Turkey's history of coups have made the coups happen very efficiently, go military!
