    The signs have been there for a few years but, like most, I thought with the EU and USA refusing to object to the erosion of Turkey's secular constitution we'd just have to accept it. Very mixed feelings, much as I loathe Tayyip Erdoğan and his policies, I'm very aware people may die before this gets resolved.

    I was just wondering where he'd go. For a short moment I thought he'd fill the tanks, fly up into the air and negotiate.

    EDIT: Oops, looks like he tried.

    Nothing screams 'I'm still in control' like having to give a statement to the nation via FaceTime.

    So many people cheering the army. I really hope this means the Kurds are able to settle and get a country of their own. Then live in peace.

    He's obviously at home with technology. Or at least someone got on the plane with him that was.
    Very good. :)

    I did have my own bit of humour a moment ago. I'll share in a forthcoming post.

    His problem is his support is mainly rural based, Turkey's urban population will not be out on the street for him in huge Nos.
