Roosh News is insanely quick to report. I thought I'd be the first to post but thread already set up and ready to go - if you like your news hot then this is where to come.
I was surprised it wasn't posted earlier, either. I follow some turkish devs on twitter that posted whats going on.

Yah pretty amazing when you think about it.
But if this is really a coup, I won't be shedding any tears for Erdogan. The military has a special kind of legitimacy in Turkey as it has long safeguarded Turkish (secular) democracy by keeping Islamists at bay. We can hope this goes down without too much bloodshed.
We suffer more in our own minds than we do in reality.

Apparently the Turkish military has said it has control of the country and has taken over. Is this good/bad news for Westerners?
Looks like the coup was a success.

Definitely, I won't shed any tears for Erdogan either, this might be a good thing happening right now, both for Turkey and Europe.
Recording a military helicopter has reportedly opened fire in the district of Ankara where the Turkish National Intelligence Organization headquarters is situated:

- The prime minister just left Ankara to escape the military.
- Some military generals are being held hostage
- There is a battle on the Bosphorus bridge
- Erdogan is "safe"

Still ongoing as far as I can tell. Quintus is tweeting live. Where is he when you need him in this thread?
Apparently clashes taking place between pro-coup army units and pro-Erdogan police.

Gotcha, Erdogan!!
Erdogan is supposedly safe. If this is the start of a civil war that has been foreseen by many because of his madness, you can officially say goodbye to the EU.
the Assad curse continues. Another one of "Assad must go" crew goes before Doctor Bashar. Cameron: "welcome to the club Erdogan".
I would not be suprised one bit if a civil war starts.
Although Erdogan does not control the army, he still has a lot of popular support.
Plus the Kurds might further escalate the conflict. This is the chance that I would not miss if I was Kurdish

Another video, says its helicopter shooting intelligence building, but it seems the same burst as the one claiming shooting the police hq.
