Turkey’s army have attempted to seize power in the country, Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said. Bloomberg's Isobel Finkel reports on "What'd You Miss?" (Source: Bloomberg)

I'm about to cry.. What the fuck is happening..

 

Although its a shame, things like this have been attempted and failed, things like this have been happening for decades, nothing is likely going to happen. Although I do feel sorry for the people living there, it must be frightening, sad and a lot of other emotions. For anyone that lives there, please stay calm and safe.

 

History is happening.

 

I have a questions to ask.
What exactly did people in the coup want? Because I am not particularly fond of the Turkish government either.
To be perfectly honest here, unless these people were Anarchists or Communists/Facists, then I do not see a huge problem with a coup, aside from the violence.
To be more clear, if the people revolting are any better than the current government, I would take it, albeit it would be 'un-democratic'.
That is far-fetched because I am pretty sure that if they are revolting using violence, they probably aren't looking for a better government, but rather their own personal vendetta. But I still wanted to ask to question.

EDIT: I think I found the awnser to my question:

Obviously American media wants none of this.

 

Well, the Turkish military does have a history for staging coups.

 

When me and my mum saw this on the news while eating french toast we both just were like dead.
