[QUOTE=niiiiiiiiok;50719197]Ankara is getting hit hard[/QUOTE] Could You point me to the source, BBC is just reporting on Istanbul.
I wish i was in Turkey right now so i can participate in the riot, throwing shit at soldiers and climb on top of tanks while snap-chatting my experience. *Sigh* [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Why reply?" - Bradyns))[/highlight]
According to the Turk guy, who is currently concussed and looking for ear protection, he has heard like 40 "thermobaric" explosions and sonic booms
To the people asking what Erdogan is going to do after this is over, I'm not sure the military is exactly out of the fight yet. Let's wait and see. :v:
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;50719161]Hitler did, so did Putin.[/QUOTE] I'm going by memory now: Monday, February 27, 1933 was a large amount of political tensions in Germany, people had for a long time held Nazi and Communist political views. The country was under great pressure, and president Hindenburg, from the German State of Prussia, had a big influence on Adolf Hitler's tactics, and wrote over all decrees and proposals of national security to Hitler's confidant Vice Chancellor Papen. Hitler received his power over the large number of police forces, with which he was able to remove all power from the former executive, legislative and judicial government (state of emergency). Hitler removed civil rights and were able to create a dictatorship after the Parliament building burned down by the communist Marinus van der Lubbe. According to Dutch psychiatric and legal archives confirms that Marinus had mental disorders (old archives). The Nazis and Hitler used the fire as a starting point to justify their right after the attack on the communist opponents, after they lost the political vote with 44 percent. The National Socialist Party exploited the situation and accused the Communists party for the fire of Reichstag. Marinus Van Der Lubbe never represented the Communist party, he was only a self-claimed supporter. edit: [URL="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jan/12/secondworldwar.germany"]1[/URL] [URL="https://archive.org/stream/RapeOfTheMind-ThePsychologyOfThoughtControl-A.m.MeerlooMd/RapeOfTheMind-ThePsychologyOfThoughtControl-A.m.MeerlooMd_djvu.txt"]2[/URL] everything else is swedish. [QUOTE]When he was alerted to the news of the fire, which took place shortly after he had taken power, [B]Adolf Hitler called it a "sign from heaven"[/B] that a communist putsch was about to be launched[/QUOTE] Don't know the source, but didn't Erdogan say the same thing *conspiracies*
[QUOTE=Prettyflacko;50719207]I wish i was in Turkey right now so i can participate in the riot, throwing shit at soldiers and climb on top of tanks while snap-chatting my experience. *Sigh*[/QUOTE] I really hope this is sarcasm
[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;50719190]So is Erdogan going to change Turkey after this is over?[/QUOTE] If he and his goverment survives the situation, oh boy he will roll over the ones responsible. And to be fair at this point, this is what everyone wants to see happen.

I'd rather the posts be left as they to be more neutral. That way if someone agrees or disagrees they have to state it and add to the case. It would certainly increase the quality of posts here.

Looks like people are/were throwing shit at tanks in Ankara Just to clarify, not actual shit, just rocks
I heard that pro F16 and coup F16's are going to engage each other over Ankara? This should be interesting.
So from what I've gathered from reading, this is a lose-lose situation correct? If the coup succeeds, there is a high chance of civil war and if it fails the Government might go the Hitler route?
I'm going to sleep, I bet something big will happen

IMO mods should start banning those meme replys, this is not funny at all and many people are suffering and many families are going through losses that will affect them forever

Are there any good streams? I left my computer for a few minutes and the fox stream I was watching started reporting on, I shit you not, a pokemon go singles night. What the actual fuck?

This isn't about anything related to sex or gender, and even if that guy isn't joking, it's still irrelevant to the actual goings-on of the coup.
The coop has more than likely failed it seems.
