Turkey in Wonderland
To borrow a phrase from Alice in Wonderland, events and questions regarding the “rabbit hole” failed coup in Turkey get “curiouser and curiouser”.
Erdogan has blamed the Turkish military, top aids, the US, and cleric Gulen who is in exile in Pennsylvania.
Gulen and the commissioner responsible for Turkey’s EU application raise the possibility Erdogan himself is behind the plot.
Questions Mount
- Why didn’t the military shoot down Ergdogan’s plane when they had the chance?
- Why did Turkey have the list of military and judicial judges prepared in advance?
- What about fabricated stories about who was responsible?
False Flag Fears
The above questions hint at a “false flag” operation.
The contemporary term false flag describes covert operations that are designed to deceive in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by entities, groups, or nations other than those who actually planned and executed them.
