Some more material--since I mentioned it (I believe I sent you a copy, Shane):


Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel:

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-36801763 (about his alcohol and pork use, plus recent radicalization).

His sending of funds to his family:

Coup:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/07/17/turkey-coup-plot-president-erdogan-rounds-up-thousands-of-soldie/ (about Erdogan's purge).


attempted taking of Erdogan by coup soldiers. It also shows a clip of erdogan addressing the people of Turkey on TV:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/18/military-coup-was-well-planned-and-very-nearly-succeeded-say-turkish-officials (25 men attacked his hotel).

Discussing the AKP, Kemalism. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/interrogation/2016/07/why_turkey_s_latest_attempted_coup_was_different.html (NB: the author does not view the Kemalists as secular, on the grounds that they pander to the Sunnis. I personally disagree, as this pandering is merely because the Turks as a whole are Sunni, and that is how you appeal to the crowd. Further, the policies in practice imposed by these people would not be religious by most standards)


Here we have the repudiation of the coup by opposition, the military as a whole, and Erdogan blaming the Gulen movement, with background on Fethullah Gulen. We also have some background http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/16/world/europe/military-attempts-coup-in-turkey-prime-minister-says.html?_r=1

an explanation as to why this was likely not a false-flag:

here is the NATO concern, plus the latest known number of arrests (supplemental material for other sources above).

the Arab (Egyptian specifically) reaction, as summarized by Yousseff Hussein (Arabic source. Sorry).
