[QUOTE=Alec W;50717491]american flags made of light on the bridges?[/QUOTE] My best guess would be France, or just how the bridges look usually
[QUOTE=milktree;50717480]What will nato's response be?[/QUOTE] US can't assist those who are trying to coup d'etat someone Although We know how NATO countries will play this....if they assess the situation as having a clear resolution in a short span of time, then it's probably they'll send non-official support to the guys who are against Erdogan. Otherwise, if they assess the situation will just bring more instability to the region, then they might try to help Erdogan stay in power in change of some benefits. The question is, will Russia want this to escalate?
[QUOTE=MrFlashcat;50717489][media]https://twitter.com/RamiAILoIah/status/754081123630710785[/media] This just seems so surreal[/QUOTE] Those people hitting the tank with fucking sticks

I think its starting to shift momentum, people aren't very happy with the military.
[QUOTE=Techbot;50717456]you can hear the ricochet of the bullets on the fox stream so they're most likely shooting at them[/QUOTE] Warning shots can be fired upon the air and at their feet. None of us have confirmed intel on this so there's no need to argue of who's right. Looking at video footage from other conflicts there's no way to tell by their behavior if they got shot or not.
[QUOTE=Otterman;50717498]Those people hitting the tank with fucking sticks[/QUOTE] It's a sign of protest if anything.
[QUOTE=Otterman;50717498]Those people hitting the tank with fucking sticks[/QUOTE] "come on guys, this will make them panic from pressure and make them run over the crowd, let's do this!"
The erdogan supporters are trying to use their vaguely unarmedness as a weapon against the military
has "there is no cause for concern" ever been said when there actually was no cause for concern
As expected, Erdogan's supporters clashing with his opponents. This is gonna be a long and bloody night
So another civil war which will turn toxic and help IS/other fundimentalist assholes spread their warped ideology. Great.
a lot of people on the last page were asking what that bus was doing, I think the reporter said they were using it as cover to move with
[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;50717512]has "there is no cause for concern" ever been said when there actually was no cause for concern[/QUOTE] Even if it was true you'd think a column of tanks and attack helicopters and jets would still be cause for concern. What bullshit.
I'm hearing a lot of gunfire on the livestream I'm watching.
HOLY SHIT THAT GUNFIRE
Automatic fire at the bridge. Not good.
Fox is saying it's a failed coup now. I hope that's untrue
[QUOTE=lolwutdude;50717452]just incase if you guys want to know what stream to watch: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mq5hrUDoYo[/url] if you just want no bullshit livestream of the bridge. no commentary, just close up zooms and constant vigilance of whats going on in the bridge war [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y60wDzZt8yg[/url] sky news and practically other mainstream news if you want updates & commentary[/QUOTE] That first link seems to suggest that it's still on-going.. is it?
[QUOTE=mdeceiver79;50717514]So another civil war which will turn toxic and help IS/other fundimentalist assholes spread their warped ideology. Great.[/QUOTE] Something tells me Turkey is too close to Europe for the major players of the world to let it fall into extremist hands.
really hope ISIS doesn't use this as an opportunity for their bullshit
gunfire on the fox livestream followed by many what sounds like boo's
Apparently mosques are calling for people to get out on the street and fight against the coup, in between the prayers. This will only get worse if it continues down this path.
[QUOTE=Cutthecrap;50717497] The question is, will Russia want this to escalate?[/QUOTE] That's what I'm afraid of. Although Turkey in general seems to be anti-Russia and I don't think any of the groups there are pro-Russia. I don't even think Russia will stoop so low as to the fund their enemies either
[QUOTE=Squad1993;50717522]Fox is saying it's a failed coup now. I hope that's untrue[/QUOTE] One important thing you need in a coup is the people's support, and it looks like everyone hates the military right now so I don't know.
Oh shit oh shit that gunfire

Psychotic Islamist people going to probably charge the military and die
Even more fire, fuckton this time. Not 100% sure these are warning shots, honestly.
holy fuck there's a lot of gunfire on fox stream this is insane and many people are ducking to avoid gunfire
