What the fuck is going on in Turkey? UPDATE! + Turkish President seeks asylum in Germany!!!

Thanks to hristo for the link!



via Reuters.
Istanbul's Bosphorus Bridge and Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge were both closed on Friday, local television channels reported, without giving a reason.
Dogan News Agency footage showed cars and buses being diverted. CNN Turkey showed two military vehicles and a group of soldiers lined up at the entrance of one of the bridges in Turkey's biggest city.
A Turkish official who did not want to be named said soldiers had been deployed in other cities in Turkey, but did not specify which ones.
Dogan News Agency reported the national police directorate summoned all police to duty in Ankara.
Well we know it isn't a coup, unless a relatively junior (talking Colonel in this case) officer is trying to pull something.  My guess is a major anti-terror operation.  I can imagine that the terror attack in France has all the security forces in Europe acting proactively to prevent a copy cat.

The only part of the story that gives me pause is the National Police Directorate calling all police to duty.

Could it be a coup?  What the fuck is going on in Turkey?

UPDATE

1.  IT IS A COUP!

2.  TURKISH MILITARY SAYS THAT THEY"VE TAKEN CONTROL OF THE COUNTRY!

3. Put down your coffee or adult beverage before you read the rest of this one. One reporter is asking a serious "what if". What if the Turkish President calls an article 5 because of the coup against his govt? An attack against one is an attack against all thing!

4. THE COWARD FLEES TO GERMANY! SEEKS ASYLUM!!!!!

2016! The year that just keeps on giving! We are living at the start of something scary! Too much is happening....to be honest this reminds me of pre WW1.
