I woke up this morning to headlines of a coup attempt in Turkey. I am seeing a very mixed bag of headlines and reports. In spite of the claims that the coup has failed I see indications that the media either don’t know what is happening or are not telling us.
Indicators:
There is a claim that all social media has been cut off.
There is a claim that all news media has been taken over by the government.
With that in mind we can only wait and try to wade through all that we are reading.
I don’t know enough to have a dog in this fight. One indicator that the coup might be a good thing is the response of our own President Barak Obama and his Secretary of State John Kerry. They both claim they support the elected government. Since they both have a record of selling our friends down the river and supporting our enemies that makes me think that the coup might be a good thing for us and the world.
