Military coup in Turkey

[Transient]

I highly suggest NATO get a second opinion.

Didn't have to, found the source for each claim after a 5-second Google search, cuntbutt.

All Turks require extra documentation to travel outside country

All Turkish academics banned from traveling abroad

That list is all kinds of fucked up, but this strikes me as particularly insidious.

Also İ would like to mention that there are 1577 university deans in the country. So they are asking for the resignations of ALL of them

Can someone explain to me why Erdogen is closing schools and things?

[Transient]

Erdogan is trying to establish a religious government, and knowledge has always been religion's Achilles' heel. His cover for this is that the schools have ties to Gulen, which is his main rival. Although I don't know how much he can do from his mansion in Pennsylvania....

[seremtan]

Gulen is a bit of a religious nutter as well, so it's quite as simple as that

The news keep referring to it as a "failed coup". I'm pretty sure the coup was 100% successful in what it tried to achieve.

[Tsakali]

Its suprising how many people miss understand this situation. Everyone I've personally talked to, saw the coup as a threat , and are glad it failed. And I'm thinking the media's lack of transparency in the issue here. How is it that no main stream newscast even touched on the possibility of this being a ruse?

When I'm getting better information from a quick reddit scan through, compared to possible hours upon hours of professional tv news reporting and considering how much they love speculation and such , there's a serious disservice going on.
