Was Curtis Lemay the General who said about what to do with Germany after WW2,"Hmm, we don't get much trouble from them Carthaginians these days do we?"

That was General Mark Clark in 1945 after fighting the Germans in Italy.

Newt Gingritch calming the situation down by saying all Muslims should be tested and deported if they follow sharia law. FML....

Newt Gingritch? Sounds like someone from Harry Potter.

Anyone else think this could have been a hoax by Erdogan to gain more power?

It all seems way to poorly organised for a military that has such a history of coups.

I would say he was behind it.

Possible, I suppose.
Erdogan was conveniently on holiday when the coup started.
There was a purge of "disloyal"top brass a while back.
There was bound to be elements in the army who still opposed him.
Wouldn't be a surprise to find that Erdogan had intelligence warning him of the plot to oust him and allowed it to happen so he could strengthen his grip on power.

Turkey and Pakistan are NOT "allies" of the West. They're both dangerous and volatile countries where the majority of the population have more in common with isis than any of our values, culture and beliefs.

That's one of the stupidest things I've read, the majority of people the world over have similar values. Never met any Turk or Pakiatani with values remotely like Isis.

I've thought the same thing.

He's losing influence on the world stage and wants to portray his strengths.

Also gives him a push towards making him dictator citing national security.

Behave yourself Blueparrot.
Isis are sunni Muslims that want to spread wahabism. Pakistan and Turkey are sunni Muslim countries. It stands to reason that they'd feel more sympathy towards people who believe that women are second class citizens, homosexuality should be punished etc.
We're "friends" with them simply to keep a lid on things.
Given the choice of you meeting some nice people and the evidence of the whole ground at a football match booing the French national anthem after the terror attacks in France and subsequently castigating a turkish player for saying it's wrong, I know which one I'd use as a barometer of opinion.
