They'll take him. Can't appear to be racist, after all.

Way too much propaganda going on right now to get a clear picture.

If true, why doesn't the Air Force just shoot it down?

Well this is quite possibly the worst way this could possibly have ended.

Everything played perfectly in Erdogan's hands. If he wasn't somehow behind this, it was an incredibly incompetent coup attempt. The military made so many stupid mistakes.

Turkey has cut off power to Incirlik Air Base, which houses 70 American Nuclear Weapons and is blockading it. NATO and US operations from Incirlik against Iraq and Syria have been suspended as Turkey as closed off the airspace over Incirlik.

Omg.  It's happening faster than I expected.  Hopefully this will be a step too far for most of the military.

What are you talking about? It's over.

The stand-off between Turkey and the US is just starting.


CNN and ABC are reporting the same thing.

Turkish PM says any country that stands by Gulen will be at war with Turkey.
