No worries guys. The attempt is weak and as you can see we can still use internet and watch any channel we want. They even now closed the channel that the soldiers were announcing the thing.

Here, how people reacting to the this soldiers group that is trying to take control of the goverment to understand how weak are they :

I lack information when it comes to the state of Turkey but knowing that the leader of the coup is an Islamist, I'm not too sure that it is a good thing..

But Turkey under Erdogan isn't exactly as prosperous compared to the Ataturk-era and I've seen Turks complaining how he is dragging back their country back in time, being called undemocratic and autocratic presidency.

Just stay safe. Hoping for the best.
-Kanzaki
Well erdogan has %50+ of the votes, Now from my perspective as a citizen in turkey this attempt is about taking down erdogan with force instead of democracy. So this much people doesn't thinks that he is ''dragging back our country back in time'',

It's not about what is right or legitimate when people are dying.
There's nothing in this world worth to kill and die for when you have only one life.
And the guns are speaking right now.

Some weird people would die for their kids

Unless you mean kill AND THEN die
-Kanzaki
Yes but if you checked my first post i am trying to say nobody is dying , they don't shoot anyone, this is a weak attempt, and most of the people believes and i also do who is behind of this are Fethullah Gülen and his parallel state in our country. The ones who with the parallel state, the ones who want to destroy this country, now found because of this attempt and gonna get interrogated. And the army is gonna get a bit more clear now.

So, I don't really have an exact thing to say, but I think the soldiers tried to trap us in Istanbul. I was there when it started.
A soldier told us (my family) to walk through the parkhouse since it is safe there from "terror attacks" and taxis will pick us up there too.
But after 10 minutes the soldiers decided to close the way to where we are. After we heard a shot, we (well, almost everybody) decided to walk away from there.
I'm still asking myself what they would've done if everyone was still there.

Yeah, not so sure about that, would have probably been better if the coup succeeded. Now Erdogan will use this as an excuse to grab more power and undermine the democratic system in Turkey. Thousands of judges and teachers already got fired. That's how you build an autocracy, gotta remove the intellectual elite.

Looks like I did not understand the subject too well.
In any means, stay safe and lets hope the chaos does not gets worst from here...

Why do you think it would be better? A country without a goverment is no good. The economy would be crashed and the country would be in danger because of the terrorism we have here already, since the policeman and security intelligence will stop working our country will be vulnerable for any terror attacks. So that would raise the number of deads
Zain Sugieres
Well the coup was a bad idea because it wouldn't be better for Turkey if it succeeded or not.
-Kanzaki
The goal of it was to damage turkey whether it successes or not. Since the ones whose behind of it is found, we can tell it.
Tshemmp
The goal was to remove Erdogan. It's not the first time in Turkey's history the military tried to intervene when the political leader drifts away from the views Atatürk envisioned for the country (it actually happens quite often), that's part of their job. Bye bye secularism, hello islamistic regime.
-Kanzaki
It happened on 1980 last time yea quite often?
And yes it was for take down erdogan but the ones who want to take control are also islamic movement which called "Gülen cemaati" so no the goal actually isnt what you are telling
Tshemmp
1960, 1971, 1980, I'd call that quite often for a modern country. I also doubt Gülen had anything do to with the coup, does the turkish media say that? Guess who controls the media there now. It fits perfectly for Erdogan to blame Gülen, he can depict him as a public enemy so he can do anything he wants now. Doesn't that remind you of someone? Using an "incident" to proclaim a "state of emergency" and having a scapegoat he can blame for everything so he can restrict basic democratic rights left and right? Yeah, it didn't end so well for Hitler. I can't believe people are actually supporting him.
-Kanzaki
Well, Genelkurmay Başkanı Orgeneral Hulusi Akar 's riught hand (highest rank soldier' s right hand) himself confessed that he is with gülen cemaati and that he is regretting it now
Tshemmp
Oh okay, seems I was wrong about that then.

Still there are articles like http://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/origina ... swers.html popping up now. Of course I am not an expert at all in this topic, so stuff like this makes me question what really happened there.
