    Most military coups are started by a general or group of generals (basically military leader really) and not with 'the people' in mind when they say something has to change.

      @awl Don't get me wrong, I know this isn't really ideal. But I'm hoping it goes as well as it can.

        @rarity in a country frought with revolt after revolt maybe this staged coup could be the better of them.

          @awl well yeah it seems Turkey holds a coup every decade or so

        @rarity Like I said earlier, while I do think this was one of the worst ways to do this, if the new government manages to improve things like it claims it will and actually is working for the people like they claim they are, I will be very, very happy about it. And I'm sorry if I sounded confrontational or condescending about the whole thing, I'm just really skeptical about the whole thing because of how crappily these things have gone in other countries in the last few years.
