The Gulenist terrorists have been defeated in TurkeyTurkey lived through the gravest terrorist attack of her history as dusk fell on 15 July. This was the third attempt by Gulenists to take power. They tried to arrest Hakan Fidan, the head of the National Intelligence Service (MIT) on 7 February 2012. Subsequently, on 17 and 25 December 2013, they targeted the AK Party (the ruling Justice and Development Party, or AKP) and then Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in a judicial coup in coordination with their network of police, prosecutors and judges.This time an attack orchestrated by a network of Gulenist officers within the Turkish Armed Forces attempted to take the AKP, President Erdogan and the whole country hostage.Late in the evening, F-16 fighter jets flew over Turkey's parliament, the symbol of the will of the people. They made repeated low passes over parliament, creating sonic booms. News came in that the two bridges over the Bosphorous had been blocked by soldiers. As people were trying to figure out what was happening, the headquarters of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and many government institutions were taken over by Gulenist officers, and the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was taken hostage. Soon afterwards, the anchor of the state-run national television channel read out the coup declaration in a trembling and weak voice. She was doing so at gunpoint.More At: http://www.middleeasteye.net/columns/gulenist-terrorists-have-been-defeated-turkey-1567764210
