So who should I be cheering for in that helicopter footage?

I think it was fake, though.

It looks like at least one helicopter has been downed by pro-Erdogan Air Force jets

Really? Looked real to me.

I'm seeing one place calling it a failed coup now; we will see. So much has been at least, contemplated in this thread.

El Servicio de Inteligencia de Turquía ha dado por fracasada la intentona golpista que ha vivido el país, aunque ha indicado que aún quedan algunas bolsas de resistencia por parte de los militares rebeldes, que serán juzgados por traición.

Turkish Intellgence saying coup is failing but the intelligence is the government so they might say so, now that I think about it.

Well, the plotters decided to bypass the rules committee and go right for the coup.

#TurkeyCoup attempt appears to have failed. State TV is back in government hands




If so, I think this is the worst coup ever.

Parliament hit by 2 bombs; I'd heard that per Turkish news and now, on fox.

One has to remember, the govt. of course, will say the coup is failing. Good luck to the Army.

Hate to admit this but if the coup leaders wanted to get on the side of the people they seem to have failed.

So, would you call this a "coupe de gras"?

The coup started in the middle of the night so they probably weren't in session.
