Part of the military is attempting a coup in Turkey, the country’s Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım said, following reports of military jets and helicopters flying low over Ankara and Istanbul.
"Some people took illegal action outside of the chain of command," Yildirim told news network NTV. "The government elected by the people remains in charge. This government will only go when the people say so," he added.

A military helicopter has reportedly opened fire in the district of Ankara where the Turkish National Intelligence Organization headquarters is situated.

DETAILS TO FOLLOW

The Turk PM just announced a coup against the Erdogan regime has been stopped.  I hope he's doing a "Baghdad Bob" and whistling past the graveyard.  A failed secular coup in Ankara would open the door for a massive purge by the Islamist Erdogan.

Baghdad Bob has a new gig.



Reactor leak... very dangerous! Trying to lock it down. Everything's fine here... how are you?

What are the ramifications of a military take over?

Meaning i'm not sure who the good guys are. Did the people want to oust the President?

Is this a good or bad thing?

Being a NATO member are other NATO members required to intervene on the part of the elected leader?

Their President is no good.  He is on the side of the Islamists.
