Look like Young Turks all over again... need to see how it unfolds.. but the current government is done with whatever the outcome of this take over. Most likely the Young Turks would announce new elections... wait and see time

The Turkish military is the last vanguard. They are 'authorised' to take over if they feel Turkish democracy and secularism is under threat.

brother,

Marshal laws never benefit countries, and if this is soo, then worlds most advanced and developed country is Mayanmaar, where generals ruling from last 40 years.

Erdogan will not fall easily. There are many hardcore supporters of AKP in Turkey that could even take up arms against a coup. 100% that its NATO and America that gave green light to the generals to stage the coup. There is a possibility of repetition of 2002 coup in Venezuela. If the generals do not convince the population and the big business, they are going to fail

Overthrowing a democratically elected govt is wrong but for once I welcome it.
Even if the coup fails it will send the message to the political elements. Those who have dragged the country to disaster will have a opposition.

So we can rule out a bloodless coup then? Strange times we are living in.
