Can't imagine surrendering in that spot. Who knows what is in store for them but it is going to be vengeful.

Probably better off killing yourself.

And of course our stupid president is on the wrong side of this. In every instance Obongo is supporting the wrong side. His speech today was a joke and of course there is no response to yesterday's attack. I would have leveled Raqqah.

Why would the POTUS support a coup when it is likely to fail?

Erdogan was democratically elected, not like we're talking a dictator here.

Unless it was CIA orchestrated then I don't really see the point. This looks like it didn't have a prayer.

Ergodan is becoming a dictator. How about if we just stand back and let it take its course? Just like the president is always so quick to tell us that islam is the religion of peace which we all know is bullshit.
