The Masked Tulip Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Last month Turkey made a big thing of testing a new torpedo and sinking an old warship. Video up on YouTube. At the time I thought it was odd but now I wonder whether it was connected in some way with all of this. Sign of power most definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copydude Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 BBC Rushes To Defend Terdogan link Whilst the purges are undoubtedly necessary in light of the acute threat posed by the conspirators, they will inevitably cripple the morale and capabilities of the Turkish forces, which are currently facing a series of unprecedented threats. It is not only for Turkey's sake but for Nato's too that the Transatlantic Alliance will need to stand by Turkey at this difficult time.

The Masked Tulip Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 During the night I watched a gulstream jet fly down from Moscow and over Turkey heading to Western Turkey where it then disappeared off the map. I can't get it back on flightradar now but I do wonder who was on that. Incirlik air base is home to the 7 air tankers that Turkey has - appparently 4 of them were active in the air supporting coup aircraft so there clearly was a large coup number there. Also, going heavy on it is go for Erodgan as he can be shown as being tough on the Yanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

interestrateripoff Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 The Oddly "Inconsistent" Event That Has Turkey Wondering If The Entire Coup Was Staged According to the official narrative, there was an attack on Saturday morning by helicopter-borne commandos against a resort hotel in Marmaris. Erdogan was meant to be staying there. But the attack took place nearly an hour after every news channel in Turkey beamed images of Mr Erdogan addressing the nation from the airport in Istanbul, some 750km away.
