So, explain this to me, Anons.
When Turkish artillery downed Russian fighters, we all said something like:
>Turkey will drag NATO into war with Russia
But now Erdogan is threatening war with the USA.
Is he another puppet of the US turned into a US enemy? Is this Saddam 2.0... or worse?
Is this a madman or a genius?
>Rose to power with CIA help
>Now turns against his masters
I'm not sure he'll survive the stunt, but we should admit he got guts.
Was also friend of Berlusconi.
No answers? I am genuinely interested in understanding what this is about.
I will attempt an answer:
>without the need to call the CIA into question
>let's just agree Erdogan was NATO's black sheep
>as soon as he saw NATO was unable or unwilling to push his interests
>he found an excuse to retaliate

Orma: looks like it was staged
Orma: by erdoğan
Janis: any proof?
Orma: to gain power
Orma: well mosques are somehow organized to spread akp propaganda
Orma: the moment shit started
Orma: some soldiers were apparently told it was a drill
Orma: coup dudes had ff16 jets but erdoğan managed to fly around with his shitty plane without gettng shot
Orma: etc.
Orma: and he was super calm and had a smug face last night on tv
Orma: he was furious even during gezi park protests
Orma: when it was just unarmed civilians
Orma: theres no way he'd be so calm if his life was actually threatened by jets and tanks
Orma: also the coup was super shit, very disorganized
Orma: a proper coup would censor everything
Orma: but we kept getting stupid akp propaganda in the media
Orma: hell they'd probably kill erdoğan before he could react
Orma: or say 'Help'
Orma: if it was a proper coup
Erdogan played you like a fiddle.

So Erdogan is now using this as an excuse to arrest tons of his "enemies" - even people not related to the coup:
>We told you earlier that 2,745 judges have been fired in Turkey on Saturday for alleged links to Fetullah Gulen - now both the Hurriyet newspaper and Anadolu Agency are reporting that 140 arrest warrants have been issued against members of the Supreme Court.
about time we threw our lot in with the russians
>>81312817
It's all i got, just scroll down a tad and you'll see the air base incident
>>81312818

Take Africa and Middle East, we take Europe and Latin America, okay?
>>81312706
This whole thread is full of shit.
>>81310774
>US wants to invade Turkey
>stage "coup" and blame it on Russia as an excuse to invade and take over
>roaches fuck up and don't capture leader
>leader threatens war with the US to give the US an excuse to invade
It's pretty simple.

OP here.
Guys, I misinterpreted this passage here:
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/extradite-exiled-cleric-fethullah-gulen-turkey-erdogan-says-n92226
I thought he started criticizing USA for not letting extradition happen.
>>81312551
>>81312706
>Notably, the defence department in Washington was at pains to stress that the key US airbase at Incirlik was still functioning as normal in spite of the chaotic scenes being reported from the two largest cities of Ankara and Istanbul.
SAUCE: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/pentagon-says-incirlik-air-base-still-functioning-monitoring-situation-in-turkey-closely-a7139951.html
>>81312979
Obama says Erdogan is a truly democratic leader.
http://bigstory.ap.org/article/2dcbe086e94145cbab93f5026270b44f/obama-all-parties-turkey-should-support-erdogan-govt
So your argument is invalid.
>>81312650

>>81313530
What about no?
The coup is over, however, the Turkish president closed off Airspace over Incirlik AFB, shut off power, and are blockading the base. America keeps 90 B-61 Nuclear Warheads at Incirlik. The Turkish president said he is not a friend of the U.S.
>>81313677
The power was cut to the base and the embassy.
THATS IT.

Ya know I would have no problem fighting for a just cause for my country but not now not these days not for the corrupt fucking assholes that ruin every last aspect of our lives I'v fucking had it with this shithole everything fun is illegal here even if you work your ass off there's nothing to do and when we try to do anything it's always made illegal for no reason our government is corrupt as fuck and the rest of the country are drooling retards that hang off the corrupts every word not sure I wanna fight for those assholes if a draft comes through.
The idea that after all this we put up with that these assholes up top think they can just demand to make us give our lives to them fuck that. If I fight for anyone it would be for the people.
