Civilians Climbing on Tanks, Helicopters Shooting at Police and Civilians: Turkish Coup is Failing

by Scott Creighton

It’s hard to keep up with all this stuff. Thanks to you readers for leaving links. It’s getting bad over there in Turkey right now. Here are some Twitter feed videos. Turkish police are siding with the people against the military coup. Helicopters are firing on the the people and the police. Civilians are crawling up on tanks trying to yank their drivers out. Unbelievable.

And currently it looks like the State Department and White House are slowly starting to side with the elected government of the NATO member state Turkey. It took long enough. I guess that means they don’t expect it to succeed. Kinda like George H. W. Bush turning his back on the insurgents in Iraq back in the first Iraq War. Looks like Obama may ditch the coup leaders as it seems to be failing.

I even saw Chris Mathews, that drooling neocon sycophant to power, saying he can understand that Erdogan doesn’ want to concede part of Turkey to the Kurds for their new country.

Really? After all this time with only Penny and I and a few others talking about Greater Kurdistan and the regime change operation in Turkey and it goes from “conspiracy theory” to mainstream news in about 5 seconds… and it’s Mathews who does it? Damn.

I gotta take a break for a while. my leg hurts. Thanks for all the links guys. keep it up.

Twitter video feeds after break.
