A lot of things are biased against the Turkish government. Even today the USA, and western europian counties especially Germany are engaged in negative propaganda against Turkey. I salute the bravery of the Turkish nation which they showed that night.
These mf's are trying their best to change the history but we Turks know strong support coming from Bangladesh, Pakistan and many other country. Don't take it serious one word of those western media. They lie bending the facts. so it looks realistic to everyone.
I think Turkey in one the most beautiful country in earth . God bless the president and the nation to be in peace . I love you all . İstanbul is the most beautiful city in the world . Thank you .
Selam Aleyküm 🙋. Allah is great. Peace be upon you Turkey, my origin homeland. Turk bloods is always flows in our single breath. My ancestors in late 1850's will be proud of the modern Turkey now. We will miss you forever. Love from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
A journalist that is non-professional liar coup supporter is not a journalist but dictators slave like German journalists supporting Hitler's NAZI regime.
turkish democracy is older than most eu countries for example spain. they were ruled by monarchs until 70s while turkey was ruled by secular democracy since 1945.
So what is your democracy? Destroy the state thousands of kilometers away and kill people. When American jets bombed the Syrian people, no one heard what happened. America and some other countries are destroying people there for Syrian oil products. What is justice in the world? To kill innocent people? Western countries are not making any noise. 2 million people died a day in Syria. America and other western countries did. Please answer me.
Or instead of blaming the West for all your Islamic Nation's problems, you could start building Secular Democracies, the only way to Peace and Prosperity.
Dick Burt..Secular democrasy? While West is supporting dictators like Sisi, despot Kingdoms like Saudi Arabia,Emirates etc. and trying to overthrow elected leaders like Erdoğan?
The west has to deal with whatever governments rule over the middle east. Instead of blaming the west for all of your problems why not take a good look at the values of your civilization and its political culture. Is there a tradition of human rights in the history of Islamic governance? Is there a tradition of free speech? Is tolerance for pluralism a core value? Fix your own political culture and your civilization might function better. You don't have to be Western, you could still be Middle eastern - just more functional. It's very easy to sit there stewing in your conspiracy theories about how the world works - your children will inherit the stew.
somali people will never forget the Turkey support for our trouble time. the time were our arab neighbors like Saudi Arabia were happy for our destruction. war that Saudi Arabia and Egypt and CIA were responsible. but now we now who out brothers are. viva Turkey viva Turkey president rajib tayib Ordugan. God speed.
What we forgot sometimes is the great responsibility the president take by himself. Turkey is a great nation . With the great nation comes a great responsibility.
These poor peasants, they feel so proud to have risked their lives, while the Govt., and their families were safe, it's the same political game from time immoral, with poor people in the midst, but they still have'nt learned
While he encouraged the ordinary man to go out and demonstrate, knowing the army would likely shoot them, same thing in ww2, the rich paid the poor man to fight instead of their sons, money can buy life
president Erdogon is the most honorable man in our life time. He survived the coup because he has always been truthful and loyal to his people on so God was on his side Erdogon has made turkey a Great nation the people of Turkey should be proud and greatful for Erdogon
It's clear how DW try to show us a wrong picture of Turkey., But in reality Turkey will make a real peace for a millions and millions of Muslim all around the world in the future =)
This veteran lady is representing goverment which is backed up %51 of turkish people, and the rest of them representing the %49 opposition. Well done journalisim DW!
You're right but you should see the other monumental masterpieces in every area such as health, transport,tourism,universities etc. The year ahead the biggest airport will be in action .And Canal Istanbul is a super mega project too..
maybeauty june what's the canal Istanbul and doesn't Beijing have the largest airport under construction? Where does Turkey gets the cash for these mega projects? I thought only China, India, Qatar and Saudi Arabia had the cash to invest in infrastructure.
All mega projects were and are built by private company groups. They are given the right to run them for example ten years or sometimes more and then state takes over them .lt's called ''Build-Run-Takeover Canal lstanbul is a super mega project..you can find videos about it in you tube..And lstanbul Airport 3 will be the biggest in the world,it will be finished and take action in 2018 March.. Also all projects are under guarantee of the state..I mean if one project fails or gets late state will complete it. No something like this so far though..You should also sea ''city hospitals mega project'' , contains a chain of mega hospitals allover Turkey.. As to money ,of course Turkey has enough money to build all but build-run-takeover system is way better ..State pays zero lol
Sheep Gaming Mussolini wanted to bring Italy back to their glory Roman Empire days and we all know how that ended. Erdogan, Putin, Ayatollah Khamenei or Xi Jinping can never succeed to become an emperor. It best they stick to improving the life of their countrymen. Too much ambition will break their country like Soviet Union.
''First I prayed for my childern and family, now I pray for my country and our leader' - German woman from Munich in 1936.. sounds familiar? Keep it going Turkey to become a nationalistic country.. take a look at history how much good that brings to a country. And you want this for Turkey? hmmm...
So. You see this man in 1:00 critisizing heavily against the gov. These are pretty heavy claims - pretty uncommon for a country with "No media freedom" rigt?
Donal Edward Yes yes we know the democrasy in Europe.. How do we know? Because they support dictators like Sisi in Egypt and despot kings in gulf countries and even islamofascist mollahs in lran but hate the only elected man 'Erdogan' in the region..Yes you're very democratic but please stay away from us we don't want your hypocratic democrasy..
"they support dictators like Sisi in Egypt and despot kings in gulf countries and even islamofascist mollahs in lran" Who are"they"? The countries you refer to are governed according to the Qur'an, said to be revealed by Allah through an angel. Hardly likely but I agree not democratic. Personally I know little of Turkey but it seems to me viewing it from a distance that Erdogan is authoritarian AND IS TAKING HIS COUNTRY IN THE WRONG DIRECTION though OF COURSE not as much as Saudi Arabia and the other Islamic states. I doubt that the USA would meet the criteria needed for democracy CONSIDERED by any educated liberal-minded westerner. I consider Canada, AUSTRALIA, BRITAIN and several of the Northern and Western countries of Europe to be true democracies and it seems those people fleeing the Middle East to those countries would agree with me. However I cherish complete freedom of religion and freedom to choose democratically the laws which govern a people and not any religious book such as the Bible or the Qur'an. I agree that a government should be chosen by the people according to the fashions of the time. A constitution should be a living breathing thing and should encompass freedom of expression the rule of law and a free press. We may not be too far apart in our opinions though I believe, as I said, Erdogan may be taking his country in the wrong direction. Please note people are NOT fleeing TO Islamic states but FROM Islamic states. Why do you think is so? There are lots of Turks in Europe. Many people who flee other states go to Turkey but do not stay and take the dangerous voyage to Greece and Italy anxious to proceed further become Europeans for some reason. I watch this with horror. We all do. Maybe you too.
in future the people of turkey should stay alert of any traitors, and give them sharia law punishment so nobody will dares to commit these evil acts to its own people. becuase evil always learks in the dark for an oppertunity.
It's sad to watch how dissatisfied people are. I hope the political situation settles in Turkey and there are no causalities in the process of doing so. I hope the best for these people.
I was fortunate to live in Turkey (Izmir & Antalya) from 97 until 2003 which was quite a liberal period. The economy was shaky and there was high inflation. The Turkish people seem to have accepted creeping authoritarianism for better infrastructure, health, and schools. Politics is largely impacted by demographics and the secular voter base is being overturned by a growing rural population from outside the cities who are generally more conservative, religious, and who would like good schools, hospitals, and roads. Erdogan is gradually sidelining the national hero, Ataturk who I'm quite certain would have been horrified with this current government.
Maybe it’s really that the Muslim majority of Turkey was long oppressed by a secular cosmopolitan minority who hated their countrymen. The law banning women from wearing headscarves in colleges (which would be illegal in under the civil rights act in the United States) was just one example of such. What happened is the cosmopolitan left in Turkey kept oppressing the majority and finally the majority found a fighter who was willing to take on the military
To the lady at the start of this documentary, go home to your kids and stop playing heroine , the govt,. and the army are both playing politics with the lives of innocent folks
crusaders they never give up. They wants turki became like uae Saudi Arabia kuwait qatar Bahrain you know who cantrole those countries is a curusiders but is not happening in Turkey and Iran
fettullah gulen was erdogan's best friend and supporter. they reached to top of turkey together. and they both are religious islamist shitheads. i dont see any crusaders here.
I'm a Pakistani and I love Erdogan.. I hope we get rid of our corrupt Pakistani army Generals that have destroyed Pakistan economy. Culture and everything.. They cash on the martyrdom of our hero soldiers..
Though am for The democarcy and rule of law but the documentary seems highly biased and partial representation of public opinion through carefully selected interviews
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA....!!! I never heard about UNITED PEOPLE OF AMERICA yet!!! AreThe USA people practically united? Are German people united? Stop hypocrisy...!!! Leave Great Turkey business alone....!!!
The failed coup was a travesty which needed to be condemned in the strongest terms. But Turks on both sides of the political divide should be able to express their views on the AKP and Erdogan as they see fit.
This is negative based. You showed everything against the will of turkey.. If that coup were successful, what would you say? Will you say it is right for turkey. Those whose plotted against government may have been arrested. Noo the people of turkey loved Erdogan and his government since decade and they showed their courage during coup, it means people love turkey and their leader more.
A lot of people in comment section are so sad and depressed because of the failed coup. And i am just laughing at them haha😂 Long Live Turkey Long Live Erdogan Love from Pakistan🇵🇰❤
Such a propaganda propaganda report. You destroyed a country by Tank and expect mercy????? Many countries could have long time killed those coup ploters in large numbers. Turkey is very patient
Erdogan, his family and members off the parliament fled in the nick of time, then called out the silly peasant to face the tanks, IF the majority of the army and the security forces were against the coup then where were they, why weren't they there, also if the coup was allowed, it would have fizzled eventually and all those lost lives would have been saved, saving the FATHERLAND LOL
Thanks for making such a great video and being fair to both side by expressing their opinions to people. Me, as a Turkish citizen I thank you for the video. I think we do not have people who can make fair videos like this because of the fear of being in prison for some reason. You do not have option to think that Cue attempt in Turkey was fake so you cannot judge it. My opinion is that Cue attempt in Turkey was a fake Cue attempt to make Erdogan stronger which worked out so well. I hope everybody can see that It is so funny to make cue attempt with soldiers who does not have real ammo and not being aware of anything and getting killed by the folks. Turkey had seen many cue attempts and army knows how to make an cue and this was not one of them. It was so amateur and funny. Just FUNNY!
I'm an Indian. Exactly the same authoritarianism prevailed in India during Indira Gandhi's State of Emergency during 1975-1977 during which Indian democracy was at stake. But , after 1977 , everything was okay. It'll be the same in Turkey. Turkey will regain its democracy after the withdrawal of this state of Emergency . So , cheer up and prepare for the 2019 Presidential Elections. CHP must win and AKP and Erdoğan must go now .
DW u r so sympathetic to the kurds, go make a documentary on Rohingiya , the blacks in USA, Kashmir , Palestine. syrian civilians killed by coalition bombs
This video is not objective enough. I am NOT ultimate pro or ultimate contra. But every page has a good site too. I think actually it might be driven by interests.
Well you guys did a really good job trying to stay neutral on this documentary I’ve got my own personal opinions and let’s just say this in a nice way I am not in favor of the current government at all the people of Turkey they’re no longer free
democracy is not perfect. but it’s the best we know. Bear in mind that this is also a country shares a long border with both Syria and Iraq. it is also hosting millions of refugees.
The only thing i understand from this video is that there are many Christian countries in the world, there is a zionist country (cancer of the world) israel, there are buddhist countries, and no one has a problem. Only when someone tries to establish an islamic country, then the world and the political opposition goes crazy like a prostitute in sexual heat. Because it hinders their plans, secularism is only talked about in those countries where government tries to be islamic. But for other religious countries, they don’t need secularism. Hypocrites. Every country has its own problems, and their people are not always happy with the government, it’s only natural. So stop speaking as if only turkey has problems and other countries are heavens.
I would run hard to escape country where dictatorship is glorified. I am surprised to see people glorify leaders who incarcerate people for having different standpoint. constitution and civil rights are not respected and the real terror comes from the government and the military and police suppressing freedom and freedom of tought and speech. government by representation is more fair. If people lose hope and take on weapons to fight for their rights and economic well being this is totally acceptable. People have to start feeling and using the power of the mind and the heart to manifest the future they want. We are creators(part of the creative force)
Ayla Kasarci what a nice lady ,with so civilised beliefs (8m 30s) ! She wants all those accused of treason and for helping the failed coup, to face the death penalty ,using the biblical way ,stone them to death....and why not ,without all those accusants ,mrs Ayla will keep her new job for ever and her new status ,as a civil servant of the ministry of economic affairs ....It is a catchy job and has a lot prestige ,so why bother with others ,that are not having fair trials and that in some cases may be innocent and some of the events may be circumstantial or even prefabricated !!!!
I dont know...something not right, if it's really all doom & gloom under Erdogan now, was it "better" before? Depriving women wearing hijab in schools , universities & parliament. I think the the journalist comment is the most articulate.
Defacto Kurdish Capital of Turkey.???? Armenians driven out now Kurds face the same ....??? Kurds and Turks fight??? ... Biggest enemy of Turkey is not only USA but Germany... I don't sympathize the ruling party at all ! and many wrong doings have been done! but This documentary is manipulative and the intention of this documentary is not a good one!
You why admired them they love their country.that is all matter.never seen like them.but president tayyib recep erdagon allah swt loves him and allah swt protected him.and helped his country also his people.and also the whole world masha allah .may allah swt bless and protecte him and his family
this documantary include wrong information about Turkey , they just took CHP you should be honest and listen power and we had understood what do you want to make. nobody was wrongly punished . Turkey is fair country , you must firstly learn them
This women know who she supports after 5 or 10 year after when she forced to wear burkaa and only black clothes! I think turkey is still sick man of middle east!
A lot of things are biased against the Turkish government. Even today the USA, and western europian counties especially Germany are engaged in negative propaganda against Turkey. I salute the bravery of the Turkish nation which they showed that night.

Thanks for making such a great video and being fair to both side by expressing their opinions to people. Me, as a Turkish citizen I thank you for the video. I think we do not have people who can make fair videos like this because of the fear of being in prison for some reason. You do not have option to think that Cue attempt in Turkey was fake so you cannot judge it.
My opinion is that Cue attempt in Turkey was a fake Cue attempt to make Erdogan stronger which worked out so well. I hope everybody can see that It is so funny to make cue attempt with soldiers who does not have real ammo and not being aware of anything and getting killed by the folks. Turkey had seen many cue attempts and army knows how to make an cue and this was not one of them. It was so amateur and funny. Just FUNNY!
The people were brave but alas they helped a tyrant to remain in power
Erdogan is best for Turkey
Oh so they don't like democracy in turkey
Erdogan has managed to raise the blood pressure of Jewmericans and Jewropeans 2 folds .. LOL!
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷❤️❤️❤️💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Sad for Kurdish people being abandon in every place, no right to have their own country.
I am sorry for Kurds people.
Europe and Jews couldn't succeed in coup now making all this propaganda videos. Love tayyab from Pakistan
God give long life to Erdogan for the Turkish people
I'm an Indian.
Exactly the same authoritarianism prevailed in India during Indira Gandhi's State of Emergency during 1975-1977 during which Indian democracy was at stake. But , after 1977 , everything was okay.
It'll be the same in Turkey. Turkey will regain its democracy after the withdrawal of this state of Emergency .
So , cheer up and prepare for the 2019 Presidential Elections. CHP must win and AKP and Erdoğan must go now .
DW u r so sympathetic to the kurds, go make a documentary on Rohingiya , the blacks in USA, Kashmir , Palestine. syrian civilians killed by coalition bombs
God bless and barokalloh for Erdogan and Turkish
This video is not objective enough. I am NOT ultimate pro or ultimate contra. But every page has a good site too.
I think actually it might be driven by interests.
Divide and rule
Amazing documentary about the real truth happening in Turkey.
Long live erdogan long live ottomans
Well you guys did a really good job trying to stay neutral on this documentary I’ve got my own personal opinions and let’s just say this in a nice way I am not in favor of the current government at all the people of Turkey they’re no longer free
Lmao 😂
democracy is not perfect. but it’s the best we know. Bear in mind that this is also a country shares a long border with both Syria and Iraq. it is also hosting millions of refugees.
The only thing i understand from this video is that there are many Christian countries in the world, there is a zionist country (cancer of the world) israel, there are buddhist countries, and no one has a problem.
Only when someone tries to establish an islamic country, then the world and the political opposition goes crazy like a prostitute in sexual heat. Because it hinders their plans, secularism is only talked about in those countries where government tries to be islamic. But for other religious countries, they don’t need secularism. Hypocrites.
Every country has its own problems, and their people are not always happy with the government, it’s only natural. So stop speaking as if only turkey has problems and other countries are heavens.
I like the voice of reporter
I would run hard to escape country where dictatorship is glorified. I am surprised to see people glorify leaders who incarcerate people for having different standpoint. constitution and civil rights are not respected and the real terror comes from the government and the military and police suppressing freedom and freedom of tought and speech. government by representation is more fair. If people lose hope and take on weapons to fight for their rights and economic well being this is totally acceptable. People have to start feeling and using the power of the mind and the heart to manifest the future they want. We are creators(part of the creative force)
No mercy for traitors
What happens to the Syrian prisoner in Bashar Assad prison
How long the visit to my cousin in Syria who was in person for 2 years
Ayla Kasarci what a nice lady ,with so civilised beliefs (8m 30s) ! She wants all those accused of treason and for helping the failed coup, to face the death penalty ,using the biblical way ,stone them to death....and why not ,without all those accusants ,mrs Ayla will keep her new job for ever and her new status ,as a civil servant of the ministry of economic affairs ....It is a catchy job and has a lot prestige ,so why bother with others ,that are not having fair trials and that in some cases may be innocent and some of the events may be circumstantial or even prefabricated !!!!
I love erdogan because I am Muslim
i hate erdogan because i am not sheeple.
Bekri Mustafa bravo
I dont know...something not right, if it's really all doom & gloom under Erdogan now, was it "better" before? Depriving women wearing hijab in schools , universities & parliament. I think the the journalist comment is the most articulate.
Defacto Kurdish Capital of Turkey.???? Armenians driven out now Kurds face the same ....??? Kurds and Turks fight??? ... Biggest enemy of Turkey is not only USA but Germany...
I don't sympathize the ruling party at all ! and many wrong doings have been done! but This documentary is manipulative and the intention of this documentary is not a good one!
From what I learned from this DW program Democracy in Turkey is over Ottoman rule started few years ago
You why admired them they love their country.that is all matter.never seen like them.but president tayyib recep erdagon allah swt loves him and allah swt protected him.and helped his country also his people.and also the whole world masha allah .may allah swt bless and protecte him and his family
this documantary include wrong information about Turkey , they just took CHP you should be honest and listen power and we had understood what do you want to make. nobody was wrongly punished . Turkey is fair country , you must firstly learn them
not a very good propaganda video.. try harder DW
Turkey doesn't want the "agendas" ruining their country. The people have spoken. Long live Erdogan!
LOVE ERDOGAN
What an incredibly divided country ...
I thought I was watching trt, normally I don't watch west media
This women know who she supports after 5 or 10 year after when she forced to wear burkaa and only black clothes! I think turkey is still sick man of middle east!
Mental problem.... Always hate
These people are paranoid about muslim and islam. surely u have accept and a knowlegde that we exist and have aspirations as muslims.
THE COUP WAS FAKE GUYS....
Needs to be secular
