Ok , this is the greatest, worst, weirdest and absolutely historical trip I’ve ever seen. Glad to see you guys made it out safe .
All the videos are from different people, there isn't a journalist. Vice gathers and edits them together in this format. Great content
@@johnpearson4218 I agree. I'm not really into politics but the video storytelling was breathtaking. This is probably one of the best content from vice in my book. It felt like I was there, feeling all the emotion, the intensity. (does not mean I want to be there, my condolences to the victims)
so you forgot how they treat kurdish and armenian?
@@iamhardwell2844 tf this have to do with a brutal coup?

Jeez you can feel the energy through the screen.
The civilians played a major part in the failed coup attempt, power to the people.
power to the poeple? dude should have been overthrown, it's in the constitution. Erdogan has an almost absolute rule in a democracy, the coup was to set that wrong, right. nationalism is a hell of a drug
Not Power to the People!! They used the civilians like HUMAN SHIELDS!!!!
@@kingbelowme yeah and Nationalism is what keeps a nation together. Ever heard about it? And no the military wasn’t doing any right. You’d just have another military regime like in places such as Egypt
@@kingbelowme Doesn't matter. This is not the revolution by the people either. This was a coup attempt by a small group of people. I will take nationalist populist leader that ascend through democracy over self appointed leader by force anytime. Even if it opposes my political values.
@@thastayapongsak4422 a democratically elected dictator? Hmm. That’s interesting. You also know the coup would have got him out of power and they would have held fresh elections.

It always gives me goosebumps to watch unarmed civilians confronting heavily armed military machine. The bravery, unity and commitment of Turkish people is unmatched.
They were defending a fascist dictator, who's eroding their democratic and civil rights.

which is why the government keeps fucking them in the ass and they dont care. meanwhile "other countries" fight for their rights and arent afraid to stand up for them@@raulevans1726
This is one of the greatest moments of history I have lived. The Turkish people have shown the world their bravery and love of country.
Made me cry. I pray for our people as a whole.
No matter what, you have to admire the courage of those people coming out to the streets with nothing but their own national flag to abort a coup.
One of the crazy things about this video is watching the destructive power of military hardware. It almost leaves you breathless and shows what they can do in an urban battlefield.
This also made Erdogan much more powerful and he was able to consolidate power, now he's the only dictator in NATO.
Hungary calling.
@hakuna matata false
He is not a dictator, their party lost the municipal elections
exactly mate - well said. It's rare I'm happy for a military coup to succeed. You have to be pretty bad to make me think that's ok... but Erdogan has stolen what Turkey was, and morphed it into his image. atatürk would be rolling in his grave.....
dont worry he is leaving in 2 years.
Flights canceled? That's fine, time for a documentary then.
What else can you do, really?
The music had me thinking: "What a great commercial for Erdogan!"
Yeah the leader that has allowed their armed force to take “comfort women” by force from Syria and sell them to Turkish fighting factions in Libya.
The leader has came out in support of the old empire too in front of cheering crowds it’s horrific.
because it really was, he increased his power on the politics with the presidential system and with the support he gained in this coup, he’s unbeatable in the elections today
@@raquetdude I've heard this too, wonder how common the practise is
@@raquetdude do you really has a proof for that?
in the end it's what the people want
said the democracy
Man you really have to admire the Turkish citizens, inspirational. Idk what the Coup was about or for what reason. But the citizens didnt get mad they just showed love, expressed how they where feeling and passively resisted, they even tried to have conversations with the soldiers about what they are doing, asking them why they are shooting at they're own citizens and trying to come to a peaceful resolution. It's amazing what people can do when they unite. I hope you all find peace happiness and prosperity. As an Australian I have always had respect for Turkey anyway after our troubled past in Gallipoli, A strong, brave and honorable country. ✌️
Reminded me a big of the Euromaidan and the start of the revolution of dignity.
The Turkish Republic has (or had) a policy laid out by the founder of the country Ataturk that would grant the military the power to replace governments that tested the country’s democracy and constitution. The military saw Erdogan as an authoritarian threat to the Turkish Republic. However, the civilian reaction was probably due to the fear that of past military coups which had previously themselves resulted in brutal military dictatorships
@@jamesmartin6750 yh, not good to have the military rule
@@jamesmartin6750 of course ataturk wanted the military to intervene, because if the people were to decide it would be a Muslim country.
Ataturk welcomed the ANZAC martyrs as sons of turkey because they were buried there
5:58 it's surreal to see the tiananmen tank moment being reenacted in Turkey. It takes guts of steel to face fast moving military vehicles head on 😱
Why do some parts look staged?
I get what you mean, but this is in no way comparable to the Tiananmen situation. That was a government crackdown on a protest, while this is a civilian attempt to stop tanks from aiding a coup of the government, essentially a pro-government action.

I remember that day can’t believe it’s already been 5 years
It was fake and designed to serve as a purge of high profile individuals who weren’t loyal to Erdogan. It resulted in a consolidation of power by Erdogan loyalists.
Erdogan is a puppet to foreign powers and the Turkish population is forced into mandatory conscription to be used as footsoldiers for neocolonial foreign powers.
@@MS-tc2fs yea.. ur life is also a conspiration. 😋
The whole vid kept on giving me chills, this is pure dedication and patriotism.
I don’t think you understand the background here. It was patriot to attempt a coup attempt against a conservative, religious autocrat. The military was trying to restore democracy and secularism.
@@ttrestle no, by patriotism I mean that the people were ready to give their life for what they believe was good for their country. This kind of sacrificial mindset is needed to be respected. Idc what the military wanted. I care about what the citizen wants as the main power of it's country lies in it's citizens.

huge love and respect for brave Turkish people from Bangladesh🇧🇩💕🇹🇷
It could happen anywhere. The biggest component is the role the media plays. The biggest progress from events like this is people are seen, then the coverage leads to people being heard.
"Democracy cannot be stopped" That's now a moot point when Erdogan is consistently and persistently removing many democratic norms and becoming more like a dictator with every passing day. One thing is for certain, with Erdogan in charge, the chances of Turkey becoming an EU country are non-existent. And the more it isolates itself, the less prosperous it will be.
If it comes down to a vote Turkey will never be a EU nation, the East will not allow it. Also it is not in Europe. Agreed on Ergodan though he is a pig just as much as these scumbags shooting at civillians, Its somthing he has done aswell
I did think that comment was funny considering she doesn't live in a democracy.
Lol you people will support a coup when it suits your cause
The EU has made it clear over and over again that it doesn't want to have Turkey in it, mostly because of anti-Muslim bigotry. You can't expect the Turks, who live in a a country as big as Germany and bigger than the UK and France, with a military bigger than any of theirs, to constantly beg to be let into this little club. Turks have done much better going their own way.
the idea of Turkey joining the EU has been scrapped by both sides for a while now, Turks waited long enough Europe didn't comply, so the government looked in the opposite direction. This is Europes fault as well.
You know it’s heavy when civilians call for execution of the traitors. I was a soldier at that time stationed in Ardahan in the far east of Turkey. Soldiers who went to ankara were given orders to execute the president like how khadaffi and mubarek were executed. They used thanks to shoot the parlemental building in Ankara because they thought Erdogan was inside. Thank god he wasn’t.
Turkish Military: "How did the coup possibly fail?!"
Idk, maybe next time don't run over cars with tanks and make the civilian population who you need support from, hate you.
Depends, historically without much popular support they can just shoot a lot more and still take control.
They should have taken better control of the media to demonize the enemy, tell everyone something absolutely evil about the enemy true or false doesn't matter, shoot any group of resistance as it was forming.
No real revolution is made without spilling blood.
@@MrRedsjack You can only do this if you aren't the enemy and the cause of the countries problems.
Its why republicans failed. You can only bullshit people with popular support before hand.
It was only a small group within the military
@@anilaltun2190 the size of the army doesn’t really matter rather what points they take over and how fast they take over them all and how well they defend them until the opposition starts to run out of resources

I think it's good to also tell the military reasoning. They are tasked to protect the democracy and the secular state as envisioned by Atatürk. They did that many times before and reinstated a democratic government immediately afterwards.
Erdogan is on a path to become a dictator. And all the values the Turks differed with from most of the Arab world are slowly getting lost. That's why they tried to overthrow Erdogan.
Exactly
and yet he was protected by the majority this is what democracy looks like
@@Relaxatihon The same situation in Russia.
Yeah that’s democracy the army can’t just remove the government if he doesn’t like it. the arab world is different in many ways just look at Egypt and how the army is running things there after a coup d'état
But if the majority of the population prefers more Islamic rule than secular, then let it be since that’s democracy
Seeing civilians escorting soliders out to be arrested was a crazy sight
Man, I visited Russia during this time and did a layover in Istanbul. The day after I landed in Istanbul, but was already in Russia, the Airport had a terrorist attack. Then after two weeks in Russia, my return trip was through that same airport. One day after I was already home, Martial Law was declared....crazy two weeks in Istanbul.

Hiç uğruna ölmediler. Adalet için öldüler. Zalimlerden korkmadılar. Erdoganı halk seçti ve sadece halk gönderebilir. Amerikanın köleleri degil. Amerika pkk, ypg, ypj gibi terör örgütlerini silahlandırıp üstümüze salıyor. Ama bu millet eğilmez. Başaramıyacaksınız. Ne mutlu Türk'üm diyene. Ne mutlu ki bana adelet için hak için savaşan bir halkın parçasıyım inşallah bu yolda ölürüm. Zalimler için yaşasın cehennem.
Backstory of the coup:
The Fetullah Gülen organisation is a religious extremist sect from Turkey. The sect exists since 1964. Over the years, they grew stronger and stronger. İn 1999, Gülen was to be arrested because of charges of infiltrating the state and trying to overthrow the Republic and replace it by sharia law, like in İran. He fled from Turkey and never returned back.
İn 2003-2013 Erdoğan and Gülen were actually cooperating with each. İn two separate courtcases thousands of Generals, Admirals, high ranking Police and many more were put into jail with fake charges.
Then, in late 2013 Gülen tried to overthrow Erdoğan by causing civil unrest. İt didnt work out. Now, Gülen and Erdoğan were split. Erdoğan brought out the innocent people from prison, although back then he had helped Gülen to put them into prison.
Anyway, now Gülens people were being cleaned out from the state. They had actually captured around a third of all the state we could say. They recruited their own men into positions in ministries, Police, Military and so on. Now since they were being cleaned out, the only way they saw was to do a coup.
That coup was done on the 15.07.2016. It failed due to a few big reasons: 1. They didnt manage to cut off internet in Turkey. 2. The commander who should have taken over the highest command position, was killed. 3. Only a small part of the Military was actually doing a coup.
The coup ultimately failed.
Gülen is a terrorist. He and his organisation tried to end the Republic twice. Their ultimate target is to make Turkey an İslamic Republic, so a dictatoship like İran is nowadays. Erdoğan today is an autocrat, but at least when hes gone we can return to normal. With Gülen, there wouldnt be a way back to democrcy for dozens of years
I hope that after Erdogan you get a capable leader who, together with the government can get the country on its feet again. Turkey has a big potential to be a both economical and a geopolitical superpower in the region but with Erdogan style of politics, which includes making as much as possible enemies, ruining relations with other nations, spending money recklessly in war operations outside of Turkey and basically destroying economy, the potential has been postponed for several years.
@@Byrzzaa I am hopeful for good leadership after Erdoğan. We just have to hold out until the next elections, then he hopefully is done.
Not to mention how U.S is refusing to arrest and send Gullen back to Turkey, since he is exiled in the U.S, making it kind of suspicious
Bro finally. Do you know how many Turks can't properly explain or know this this stuff. I've been giving super long explanations on the events for years now. But this was a very well summary of the events as they happened.
The only thing you should maybe add is the leaked tapes from gulen where he tells his followers to take over every possible institution with the ultimate goal tot Ake over the state. Ironically even tells them to not stroke before the eggs are cooked lol (before it's the right time). But Erdogan kicking his followers out of powerful positions forced their hand...
As someone that dislikes Erdogan. Purging the Gulenists is probably the best thing to happen ti Turkey in the past 20 / 30 years. And I'm terrified the opposition might be too lax on the issue if they ever gain power. Esp with Chaps current situation and that Kk refusing to leave backed by all his hometown people that he filled every position with.
Nepotism in Turkey is rampant on all sides unfortunately

America did this every body knows
I think people need to understand the political situation in Turkey. Ataturk who was the founder of the republic envisioned a secular and democratic nation and entrusted the safekeeping of democracy and secularism to the military. Previous coups in turkey actually restored democratic institutions. While I'm no expert on the socio political context of this latest one, we should realize that Erdogan does intact push the nation to conservatism and does act in autocratic ways...
And he's clearly popular because of it, not every country is like the West, Western style democracy has simply failed in most countries in the world
@@ibadurrehman1210 I agree, im not saying im opposed to Erdogan on a geopolitical level. I get that maybe people want a more conservative society, im just saying that Ataturk established a framework for what he considered the modern Turkey to look like and then entrusted the military with the power to enforce it. So regardless of what I believe, I would say that the coup was not necessarily an irrational act, its entirely rational granted the historical context. Yet considering the inflation of the lira, the state of the Turkish economy, and Erdogans actions against press freedom and western allies, I think it could be better.
@@ibadurrehman1210 thats bs, he mid have been popular, but removing the opposition, mean that people cant redecide.
he has ruined the country, with corupption and his incompetence, the lira is worthless, turky has lost all its firends and money.

I’m a huge fan of this open source series. No narrative, no manipulation, just pure, raw and uncut.
Whaaa? Did you watch the video?
They only showed one side. We're supposed to sympathize with the "people" who think they are supporting "democracy".
Raw footage doesn't mean no narrative or no manipulation. You just pick what to show and what not to show.
Why do some parts look staged?
@@brett4264 fair point. I was more inferring that there isn’t some talking head trying to explain away the situation. Just from what I gathered and based on the info given at the end of the video, the President of Turkey is/has been consolidating his power into more of a dictatorship. Which seems more than not to be the preferred form of government in these Islamist countries. That’s why I’ve always been against U.S. intervention in the Middle East trying to spread Democracy as usually either the populace of said countries don’t want it or don’t get it or both. They seem to love authoritarianism.

Whats weird about the Turkish uprising, is it was a Modern DEVELOPED city. Its weird seeing coup-led F-16's buzzing highly delevoped cities with sky scrapers, firing on targets that are so minor.

I heard of this is a rather odd way as it was happening. I was at a little open-air festival in germany without an internet-capable phone, and suddenly everybody was talking about it. by the time I got home and checked aljazeera, it was mostly over.
Nice film. I like that you just let the footage talk for themselves.
Looks like Erdogan took that opportunity to get rid of anyone he didn't like. It was like a gift to him.
He was likely the one behind the faux coup.
@@anderslarsen4412 eh, i won’t call this coup “faux”. But did Erdogan piggyback on this coup and use it for his own govt’s benefits? Yes.
@@anderslarsen4412 Maybe you're right. He seems to be the one that benefited the most.
@@anderslarsen4412 I ponder this too, we probably won't know the truth for some time if ever, but the end result is the same
Yeah thank God that hapoen he's here to stay
Imagine you’ve just had a hard day at work, you finally clock out, you’re all ready to drive home & see your family, then you step out to 1:51
"Did the greeks invade us?"

Unutmamak dileğiyle
This was honestly beautiful, tbh I teared up
But do they have democracy anymore ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 IT was a perfect trick for Erdogan to consolidate his power. LOOL
It’s actually a great country and most ( not all people) support him 🤷🏾♂️ it’s just like any other place some people support him some don’t !
@@abdullahfaarooqibnafirika3958 Its a country with economy in the gutter and Islamist fanatics. People are idiots , they will support anyone who feeds them insecurity , religious nonsense or nationalism. Intelligent people are leaving Turkey. All my Turkish friends are completely negative about future of Turkey.
It wasn’t staged however he took advantage
Today this is only word... empty word.
