World Policy On Air, Ep. 77: The Coup That Wasn't

After military units failed to unseat Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, he began a massive purge of opponents in and out of uniform. On today’s episode of World Policy On Air, Ahmet S. Yayla of George Mason University and former chief of counterterrorism and operations in the Turkish National Police says coup leaders underestimated Erdogan’s ability to exploit their plot and his support among the people, despite growing claims of top-level Turkish aid to ISIS. Also: how ISIS made specific calls for "lone wolf" terror attacks in France, Germany, and beyond.
