keep your ear to the ground and your ass down, artu. meaning, pay attention to what you're hearing in the streets, and stay the hell out of sight, man. also, arm yourself with whatever you can, and pack a get-outta-town bag so you can leave immediately if need be. encourage your friends and family to do the same.

destabilizing a country so close to the isis fire, can have really catastrophic consequences for the inhabitants.

It may be messy, but man, is Turkey skyrocketing upwards again when that megalomanic idiot of an Erdogan is out of the picture. He managed to tear down so much progress in just a few years, it's not even funny.

Still, I hope not many people will get hurt over this; that the Turkish army indeed follows up on what they claim, that they will uphold the laws and public order, just want to get rid of Erdogan and his inner circle.

Not too many civilians died as far as I know, one in the bridge pulled a handgun, so they shot him, 17 police officers died, a helicopter has been shot down... That's all the fatality I've read so far. Soldiers were never ordered to shoot at civilians.

But the people in your link are speaking Turkish, so it may be authentic.

there's bound to be all kinds of death happening with a changing of the guard, artu. some would consider it a free-for-all(on not just both sides, but civilian sector as well). like i said, keep your ass out of sight, and be ready to move at a moment's notice.

you better already be packed, man. food, water, clothes, weapon(s). don't move out into the open unless absolutely necessary, and when/if you do, do so at night. if you can get under the city in access/sewage tunnels, do so.

there doesn't have to be a war, there just has to be a conflict. a conflict can go anywhere. i'd rather artu be prepared, than complacent. i doubt those people in the video who were shot down by what looks like 50 cal and 7.62 fire(judging from the size of the wounds), were prepared for what was coming.

i don't know about turkey's history with these uprisings, so i have no reference there. but conflicts are conflicts. the same rules always apply.

These people creating fake information during live coverage, like Erdogan heading to the UK to take refuge, are great trolls. I have a lot of respect for them. Nod.

Awww.... The New "Ottoman Sultan" can't handle his own army? I hope his head will be presented to Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. But You can bet that Lithuanian mainstream media will blame this coup on Russia, pinning it as vengeance over that shot down jet fighter.

Cynicism aside, I do hope Artu doesn't pull an Ihor on us and won't march off to die for one side or the other.

Hope this sorts out soon.

The coup seems to have been very poorly organized... one might say even staged.

A big smack with a wood bat is what your leaders and military seems to need Artu. Trust me, the feeling when they realise what pain is like is priceless.

Just heard about it, so messed up...

I hope this does not end with Erdogan being unopposable forever.

I wonder how this will affect Erdogan? He already seemed paranoid before.
