I agree ... also I find out that coup's are normal in Turkey .. .Modern Turkey has a long history of military coups dating back to 1960. The Turkish military has typically acted as a guardian of the secular vision espoused by the country's founder, Kemal Atatürk, and stepped in when it believed civilian governments were violating those principles. But under Prime Minister and now-President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, religion has played a much larger role in Turkish public life and there had not been a coup attempt since 1997. Erdogan has also attempted to consolidate power, cracking down heavily on journalists and protest movement while attempting to change the constitution to give his office more power. Erdogan was reportedly on vacation when the coup attempt began.


of course there's more, but not as much as we have .. all though they did give me that coups are usual ... so that helps ... ;)
