Behind the Military Coup Stands Someone Who Benefits the Most
There is no question that military coupe in Turkey was a very peculiar one. It seems that the putschists were meant to sink. Almost like somebody promised someone a wide support, and then left the whole endeavour high and dry.
I don't know why, but the whole situation reminds me on Ali Ağca who shot and wounded Pope John Paul II. He acted as a member of the Turkish ultra-nationalist Grey Wolves organization. Everything looked like Muslim fundamentalists were hitting the Pope. However, it appeared that behind the whole thing stayed Bulgarian Intelligence, and behind them USSR for whom the Polish Pope was a great pain in the neck at the time of Solidarity, Lech Walesa. Ali Ağca had no idea who was the real organizer of the assassination.

Anyway, the winner of the day, better say, night is the President Erdogan. He caught a number of flies with just one catch. The unique opportunity to eliminate opponents very wide and very deep. All the Western Centers of Might supported him as "democratically elected". His position is strengthen in Turkey and abroad, especially in EU. Previous objections are silenced.
