I don't subscribe to the tinfoiler "false-flag" thing, but clearly Erdogan's government had at the very least detailed contingency plans drawn up beforehand, and quickly seized the opportunity at hand.
I don't subscribe to Erdogan being directly involved either. An analyst gave some excellent points this morning. And they are the same as with every government conspiracy. Too many people have to be in on the job. Chances that nobody blows the whistle are slim at best.
