If it fails then it's probably even worse than doing nothing since it will most likely just increase support for the current government. |
1. They underestimated the enormous support by people in favor of Erdogan (probably inside the military aswell).
2. It's staged by Erdogan.
I believe in the first explanation.
And yes, if this was a genuine coup and it failed, it will be huge in strengthening Erdogan's power.
