  • The attempted coup against Turkish President Erdoğan might have failed, but plenty of problems still await him.
    Update 7/19/2016: Since publishing, more than 30,000 people have been purged from the Turkish military. Moreover, 15,000 employees of the Turkish education ministry have been suspended along with 21,000 teachers for their suspected links to the failed military coup.

    I am from Turkey and I do not support the government. In fact, Erdogan is one of the few individuals in the world that I think I literally feel hatred towards. Yet military coup is not a solution. Turkey is not Egypt, we have a democratic tradition and if Erdogan needs to go, he will go through ballot box not through some punk ass people in the uniforms.

      Turkish elections have been monitored by independent (and opposition) NGOs as well as EU. even the fiercely critical opposition NGOs remarked that elections were open and fair. so he has not cheated. and he has a really loyal voting base, which is at least 40 percent of Turkey. this does not mean Erdogan is truly democratic leader though, he has been trying to suppress internal voices like Putin...Once Erdogan does not allow transparency in election process, then all other anti-democratic means would become meaningful. but until then, if we want democracy, we need to live with him.
      We have just had an election, the next one in 2019.

    I'm DISAPPOINTED . While the video should explain the COUP it just talked about it in the first few mins then it took a totally different direction; talking 90% about Erdogan .
    the coup started by BOMBING the Parliament and ended with killing police and civilians with tank and aircraft missiles!! like. 200 dead with most civilians and two soldiers ( but for VOX that is not worth mentioning I guess) . I live in turkey and assure you that the failed coup is not about erdogan more than its about Turkey. I've been in the streets and sow anti-government as much as pro-government peacefully rejecting the coup. Turkish people showed everyone how to end a coup. i ask u Just imagine the media if the coup attempt was done in France or America.

      +João Baptista it paints Ataturk as democratic figure when he actually was a dictator who oppressed any form of opposition with the most brutal forces. and the video also promotes the idea of the army protecting secularism which is unbelievable!, it did not mention the dark history Turkey has with military coups that is full of executions and jailing of politicians. it also ignored the Turkish people stand on the coup and how thousands of Turkish people demonstrated against the coup and where met by tanks F16 bombing.
      It also ignored the fact that the coup's failure was mainly due to the failed assassination attempt on Erdogan's life
      if I didn't know anything about Turkey and watched this video I might have wished the coup had succeeded, but knowing what I know, I would choose the "democratically elected" authoritarian Erdogan over a military coup, I've seen what the coup did to Egypt, ans saw how it committed the worst massacre in recent history.
      It seems to me that Europeans are more concerned with Erdogan growing authoritarian than they are concerned with the coup itself, which is not completely failed yet btw.
      I can't believe that I have to explain that coup is bad and democracy is good in 2016!!!!

      "Hitler was democratically elected"
      I was kind of expecting that stupid and ignorant comment.
      First of all Hitler ""lost"" the 1932 election to Hindenburg and was later ""appointed"" chancellor.
      Secondly, he formed paramilitary groups to oppress demonstrations against him.
      Then he used emergency powers to closedown newspapers and dismantle other parties, he also executed many of his political opponents and cancelled the election after the death of Hindenburg in 1934.
      Now I am not a fan of Erdogan, but that doesn't blind me from seeing how stupid this comparison. It is true that Erdogan is increasingly authoritarian but he didn't cancel any election, in fact he can still be overthrown through election, and he didn't close down any media outlets, in fact his face time speech was on a channel that openly opposes him, and he didn't dismantle any political parties, in fact all the Turkish parties strongly opposed the coup.
      So, No, democracy is not dead in Turkey , and Erdogan, as authoritarian as he is, isn't Hitler.

      You can't have true democracy when the government controls what the public hear by censoring and arresting opposition. Therefore there is no democracy in Turkey and Erdogan is a dictator. Erdogan is a dictator, and he is fooling the Turkish population into supporting him.

We do support Erdogan and its party for the adjustments in education, medicine, economics, military, transportation and etc. Basically its called ''common sense''. And I for one never voted for Erdogan and his party. I wanted to in the last elections (I was allowed to vote for 3 times by now) but I could not because we moved and did not report it before the elections. Why I did not vote for him or his party before was simple, because it was not needed. He was already winning without hesitation and did not need the support of people who has some doubts about every political partys in Turkey. After time passed and Turkey got bigger influence on Worlds politics, and cracked voices raised against him just because they can do anything without respecting any lines and Erdogan is in need of the support of public not for elections -because come on be realistic, he will win without the ones with doubt anyway- but to demonstrate power and unity for Turkeys neighbours to trust Turkey and its stability. So I would start to vote if I could in last elections in the light of education and new information that I got and the mindset and mental stability that comes with age but I could not. But I will start as soon as possible. And for an example for a development, 15-20 years ago we would have to wait in line for at least 10 hours on our feet does not matter the circumstances of us to get a ''pill'' with our own money. Last year I got a surgery without waiting in any line and without paying a god damn dime. Every single thing was covered by the government. Public of Turkey is lazy about anything that is not ''real''. Let me explain what I meant. People did not speak up for Erdogan unless they are forced psychologically by opposing minds. They just went to the elections and destroyed any opposing ideas with their votes which does the real impact. They did not went to the streets until the attempted coup where they could die and they did die for their country because it would do the real impact, it would do impact on ''reality''. Public of Turkey does not like social media because it is not reality it is an ''illusion of reality'' which is known by everyone and heavily criticised by shows like Mr. Robot. So sick minds like to live in the illusion and yell about anything they don't know or they don't like but in reality more than half of the public supports Erdogan formally and 80 percent of the public went to the streets to protect democracy and government without hesitation and Erdogan is not an Islamist he is secular, he is a muslim and he is Turk and he would protect these values in any circumcistances because the public will support him. Actually it is revealed that the ones who staged the attempted coup was trying to bring Sharia and Gulen to country as a caliph. As I said Turkish public is lazy about what is not real and what is not real is the opinion of people who is on youtube, what is real is the formal opinions of countries and every single one of them with the elected government except Egypt. You know why but I will say it cause I already started to write long reads. They are with the coup because who is in charge in Egypt came with a coup that condemned by Egyptians. I am a member of Turkish Republic and I am lazy about what is not real because -come on man, please I am exhausted- it is not real. So I will not explain things any further unless it is asked nicely and sanely.My english can be bad because I did not need to practice it in months, don't mind it mind the idea. Be safe folks.

Like how Christianity has it's factions, so does Islam. IT's due to mass media coverage and common stereotypes that most people have come to associate Muslims with Radical Islam.
      Keep in mind that if you asked someone to tell you exactly why they are scared of Islam and Muslims, most of them will have some very stereotypical comments based off of a few events that don't ever represent the 1.5 billion Muslims worldwide. That is very irrational.

      Considering all 28 countries need to agree for these kind of decisions, it's very, very unlikely. And that's without counting the strict requirements that countries wishing to join the EU need to fulfill. Such as respecting human rights. Basically: No chance they should join.

    The coup has nothing to do with Ataturk and secularism, it was backed by the Us itself because Erdogan is not a leader that they can control or predict what he is gonna do same thing happened in Egypt's Mursi which was a democraticly elected leaderwhich they weren't succesful as much as us.

      Even Erdogan's civil opposers got out on the streets, because no sane person would be appealed by the "peace, freedom and human rights" granted by the repulsive militias and bandits, that call themselves military. Just check out how Egypt's been doing since 1952, how Iraq did from 1958-2003 (not to say that they're now doing better by any means) or for reference just cehck out Turkey from Atatürk's days till the 1990's.

    People don't seem to understand and I am saying it as someone who does not support Erdogan. Many people went outside to fight back for democracy wasn't even his supporters. Secularist party and nationalist party came forward immediately and supported elected president and democracy. people elected him and people will someone else when they want him out. Thats democracy and people don't want and intervention thats not third world country. You cannot coup in democratic countries thats not acceptable. And saying this coup is different than other coups in the world is not true. coup is a coup there is no different types of it.

    Mustafa Kemal Ataturk military officer who established the secular state in 1923 via military rule, there appears to be two governments the Military and the Citizen sometimes they clash. The military steps in anytime the country becomes too religious. How does the united states stay secular though?

    • @Dischingo
      @Dischingo 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well the United States is mostly Christian but we have large minorities of different religions living here, for example I am Hindu and go to a public school here. Its all about understanding that your country is unique and not entirely the same religion, race or etc.

    • @veritasabsoluta4285
      @veritasabsoluta4285 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      The United States stays secular mainly through people speaking out against any religious bullshit creeping into the system which forces the government to act, separation of church and state and the first amendment go hand in hand.

    • @nickluswidner3915
      @nickluswidner3915 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      The United States stays secular through The Constitution and its amendments which promote diverse religious practices and attempts to equalize all of the citizens of the United States. Of course there is religious influence on the United States as the founding fathers were Christian, a majority of them being Deist, but has evolved into a mostly religiously neutral country focusing on keeping the peace between often conflicting religious viewpoints.

    • @aykut04
      @aykut04 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      u forget that the founding fathers actually specifically emphasized that the united states should not have an official religion. All the references to god and religion in most of the things that goes on in government nowadays are add-on's. Most notably, the reference to god in the pledge of allegiance was added on later, i believe in the 1950's. so technically, no, we're actually becoming more religious without any proper process at this time preventing the us from becoming a religious nation.
      As for "the separation of church and state," tell that to a republican and see what they say.

But they didnt know he was in the plane ciz they registered it as a passenger flight. His close comrades died he was in tears. Dont believe that stuff. The west dont want Turkey to grow. There is a huge change in Turkey since erdogan came and its good! There is a reason people elect him and go on the streets to protect him. We arent like Egypt or arabic countries they would have got their leader hanged in 2min
