They might be aiming to create hatred in the society against our soldiers and thus to weaken our army in their feeble minds. We, as a nation, would never fall for such a plot.

It is obvious that the main goal of this coup is to lay the foundation for the invasion of Turkey. That is why our government should be cautious about this aspect of the attempted coup and take precautions accordingly.

This coup might have been staged to disturb our people merely as a preparation for their goal to separate and invade Turkey.

I congratulate our people for their bravery once more. Turkey is bold in heart altogether.

Such times could be very open to provocations. It's important not to be angry. Anger takes away reason.

This attempted coup might have been staged to lay a foundation for the invasion of Turkey and an intervention of the UN. We should be very cautious.

May God bring an auspicious end to all operations being carried out. May God enfold our people with His Light and protect them from troubles and pain.

Being against the coup doesn't mean supporting a political party. As the people, we must emphasize that we're against the coup and united as one.

Our army is an unshakeable army. They are our brave heroes. No one should ever dare to utter a word against them.

Our people should embrace our soldiers at all times with compassion. Military personnel should not obey orders to kill.

The Turkish army is precious to us; it consists of brave, kind soldiers. But the criminals amongst them will be punished according to the laws.

I’m repeating: Subordinates who only followed orders shouldn't be treated as traitors.

Our soldiers would never shoot at our people. Provocators must have been used in this coup attempt.

Turkey stands as one with its soldiers, police, people; will always act with the principle ‘peace at home, peace at world’.

There should be no anger towards the soldiers, they should be approached with compassion. This will befit the nobility of our people.

Everyone should act calmly and compassionately now and soldiers should return to their posts.

Our soldiers are precious for us; they will never accept orders to shoot at the police. They should express regret and retreat.

Soldiers involved in this vile attempt should return to their posts. A mistake might have been made but they should end it now. Our army's duty is stopping the PKK.

Our police officers are the most merciful ones in the world. Our soldiers are the most compassionate, best mannered, noblest soldiers in the world. They are young, brave, beautiful mannered Anatolians.

Those who attempt to put the blood of Muslims on our soldiers' hands, those who attempt to make our soldiers get used to murders, get used to shedding Muslims' blood, would get their just desserts.

A general amnesty, etc., are unreasonable, dangerous things. Beware! Don't you dare! It would be a devastating disaster to pardon those who killed our soldiers.

It is the gravest treachery to make our soldiers kill Muslims. No Turkish soldier will ever accept that. There is no Turkish politician who could make such a suggestion. The , they cannot make the Turkish nation commit such a depravity. They should forget about it.

It is important to win over people from all thoughts. We must do services not just for the needs of one segment, but for all in Turkey.

It is very common among young people to use a language based on conflict. This makes ground for lovelessness and division. Muslims must always be compassionate.
