SPECIAL REPORT Turkey's long night of the soul By Jared Malsin/

Thousands of Turks take to the streets of Istanbul in the early hours of July 16 to protest the attempted coup

PHOTOGRAPH BY MARIUS BECKER TheBrief

WHEN TURKISH MILITARY OFFICERS SET IN MOTION AN attempted coup d’état on the night of July 15, lawmakers in the capital, , were quick to rush to the parliament building. As explosions rocked the capital and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was nowhere to be seen, it appeared the lawmakers might be making their last stand in defense of Turkey’s de- mocracy. Before heading to government headquarters, oppo- sition lawmaker Mahmut Tanal brought a copy of the Turkish constitution. Another, Orhan Atalay from Erdogan’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), grabbed his gun. That might have been the better choice. Turkish and U.S. officials now believe the attempted coup was a serious and well-armed bid for power that came within a hairbreadth of succeeding. The coup plotters commanded tanks, helicopters and F-16s. They opened fire on crowds, invaded television studios and shelled the main parliament building. By his own account, Erdogan narrowly avoided capture and possibly ex- ecution, fleeing minutes before troops raided his hotel in the seaside town of Marmaris, where he had been on vacation. It wasn’t until the next morning, after Erdogan had rallied his supporters to the streets, that it became clear the attempt had failed. Some 280 people were killed, according to the Presi- dent, including 100 he called coup participants. The attempted coup came after a year in which Turkey’s reputation as an oasis of stability in the chaotic Middle East has crumbled. Conflict reignited between the government and Kurdish separatists in July 2015. The country has been rocked by a devastating series of attacks against civilians blamed on both ISIS and Kurdish militants, culminating in the ISIS assault on Istanbul’s main airport in June. The traumas deepened political divisions in Turkey, where rival camps already viewed each other with increasing distrust as ‘This lawmakers heard an explosion, an ap- Erdogan gathered more and more power.

been barred from traveling abroad, ac- cording to state media. And on July 20, Erdogan declared a three-month state of emergency. The government blames the coup on Fethullah Gulen, an influential Turkish religious leader who has lived in self- imposed exile in Pennsylvania since 1999 and fell out with Erdogan in 2013. The government says Gulen’s followers established a vast network within state institutions, which it is now trying to eliminate. Erdogan has demanded that the U.S. extradite Gulen, who denies any role in the coup plot. officials say they are skeptical of the ac- cusations but are not ruling them out. Erdogan’s harsh reaction is perhaps to be expected given how close he came to losing his office—and potentially his life. But the latest measures have fueled fears that he is using the coup attempt to suppress critics who had no connec- tion to the insurrection. “I hope and I wish that the party in power learns a lesson,” says Tanal, the opposition law- maker. “The regime they are running has made a lot of mistakes.”

AS THE SUN ROSE on July 16, silence fell over Ankara and the sheltering MPs began to peer out of the parliament headquarters. Everywhere in the com- pound there were security men, includ- ing some the lawmakers recognized and others they didn’t. “Everybody was scared of each other,” says Tanal. Some police he had previously known walked him to his car. To his surprise, the ve- hicle was intact, unscathed by the shell- ing. He drove home in the morning sun. The coup attempt has yielded a polit- ical paradox. It prompted a moment of unprecedented unity as the vast major- ity of Turks—including some opposed to the government—came together over the course of a long night to resist an attack on democracy. But unless Erdo- gan joins them in that unity, Turkey’s divisions will only deepen. “The people did what they needed to. They stood by the government. They showed political maturity,” says Nigar Goksel, a senior analyst on Turkey at the International Crisis Group in Istanbul. “Now the ball is in the court of the government to reciprocate.”—With reporting by MASSIMO CALABRESI/WASHINGTON □

30 TIME August 1, 2016 The Firebrands

They are the bold, the fearless. They are the Firebrands: the disrupters who speak the truth and hold the powerful accountable. They tell us what’s going to happen in Washington before Washington even knows. Through fi erce debate and intelligent conversation, they thrust us into the middle of the political and cultural zeitgeist before the sun streams through our windows. And, that’s why we need them to start the day. THE HARDEST ONE TO KNOW Hillary Rodham Clinton has proven she can make history. But can she ever make herself understood? BY PHILIP ELLIOTT AND DAVID VON DREHLE

The primaries were finally over, the general election loomed, and as Hillary Clinton stood in June to address a friendly audience at a Chicago luncheon, she faced a profoundly unfinished item of business. With history in her pocket and the polls tilting in her favor, the former Secretary of State and First Lady finally named the problem that has dogged her for decades. “A lot of people tell pollsters they don’t trust me,” Clinton told her audience, in a voice that, minus the microphone, would have evaporated. “I don’t like hearing that, and I’ve thought a lot about what’s behind it.

Now it is spring of her senior year; Rodham is the student-government president, and her class- mates want a student speaker as part of the com- mencement ceremony. Coming at the end of the tu- multuous and often violent ’60s, the request seems modest enough. “What is the real objection?” the young activist pushes. “It’s never been done,” Adams protests weakly. This is how Rodham arrived at her first burst of national attention: as a representative crusader in a generation of change seekers. When the Wellesley president backed down, she was given a platform for her speech. And stepping to the microphone on grad- uation day, she felt compelled to offer an impromptu critique of the milquetoast address delivered by Sena- tor Edward Brooke, the featured orator. This decision to take on a Senator was a measure of the distance her restless mind and political pas- sions had taken her in a few years. A devout church- goer and eager Republican—she volunteered as a “Goldwater girl” in high school—Rodham was now scorching the status quo. Her conservative father had done little to seed such confidence. “You must go to a pretty easy school,” Hugh Rodham grunted when shown her perfect grades. It was at Wellesley where she caught fire. Her speech became one of the most celebrated of that graduation season. “We are, all of us, exploring a world that none of us even understands, and attempt- ing to create within that uncertainty,” Clinton said in a clipped accent few would recognize today. “And To Verveer, Clinton’s trouble is simply the human △ so our questions—our questions about our institu- condition as magnified by the relentless lens of public After giving tions, about our colleges, about our churches, about scrutiny; we all contain multitudes. “At any given a celebrated our government—continue.” The applause when she time, if you take a snapshot of her, it may not look like graduation finished reportedly lasted for seven minutes. the previous snapshot.

AS ONE OF TIME’S WHITE HOUSE photographers for nearly two decades, Diana Walker says her primary goal with politicians was to “show you how human they were.” This was never clearer than during her time with Hillary Clinton, whom Walker captured throughout her historic transformation from First Lady to U.S. Senator to Secretary of State. True to her aim, Walker’s pictures help convey the person behind the politician. Whether on the trail in New York or on a military plane bound for Libya, her images offer a rare window into a person familiar to most, yet known by few. “I was just shooting who I saw,” Walker says. “And that’s who I saw.”

THEY RAN.

SO GOES THE FIRST ACT OF A REFUGEE: a scramble for food or clothing, a grab of the nearest helping hand, flight. Were the soldiers coming to take territory? Or coming for forced conscripts the way they did two years before, when Yiech Pur Biel’s father ran and never came back? In those first moments it didn’t matter; the soldiers were coming. So Biel and his mother, two sisters and younger brother rushed out of their home, five more drops in the human flood rushing into the scrubby forest outside the town of Nasir, in the northeast of what would soon become South Sudan. This was 2005. What month? Biel doesn’t remember. What season? He can’t say. He was 10 then, an age when time means little but the loss of home feels like the earth cracking. “When they attacked us,” he says, “I saw it was the end of my life with my family.” It got worse. Biel—who would grow up intent on proving, along with the nine other members of the Refugee Olympic Team at the Rio Games, that refugees “are not animals”—then took what is often the next step: he lived like an animal. Hiding in the bush, senses on high alert, no food to be had. For three days his family, sleepless, bellies screaming, foraged for fruit and climbed trees for their bitter leaves. Finally, Biel’s mother Nyagony made a decision. The border with Ethiopia was only 19 miles away, a week’s walk; maybe they could get food there. Biel was the oldest boy. There was no avoiding the cruel calculus: she could handle three children on the road but not four. “You see,” Biel says, “if I am 10 years, I can survive without her, maybe.” He tried to understand. His mother placed him with a woman from their and after making laughable bets that stag- neighborhood, gathered his brother and ing recent Olympics in China and Russia sisters and went.

48 TIME August 1, 2016 subjected to forced marriage. Lohalith decided, at all of 9 years old, to go with an aunt to Kenya because her Didinga community expected her to submit to early marriage. “But I was planning to go to school by then,” she says. “I was wishing to become a doctor.” Political and tribal authorities aren’t the only ones creating nightmares. Sep- arating mostly Christian South Sudan from Muslim-dominated Sudan in 2011 seemed a fairly straightforward task, compared with reconciling the nation’s warring ethnicities. The dominant Dinka and Nuer tribes have forever battled for power, which helps explain the current hostilities: on one side the Dinka, and on the other the Nuer. And though some 650,000 South Sudanese have bolted the country since the conflict began in 2013, those tensions were not left behind. All five South Sudanese runners came through the 25-year-old Kakuma Refugee Camp, a holding area for 185,000 people in northwestern Kenya. “When refugees fight [among] themselves, you face a lot of challenges,” says Lokonyen, 23, who lived in Kakuma from the time she was 9 until last fall. In 2014 the Dinka and the Nuer battled there for weeks with sticks, guns and the machetes called pangas. △ had already forced the cancellation of “So many people were dying in that Loroupe’s center has little in the festivities marking South Sudan’s fifth fighting,” she says, gesturing to the back way of athletic amenities, but it’s birthday, and it was just as well; since of her neck. “I saw: They were cutting one become home for the refugees independence, the nation has had little of the young kids, he was Dinka, cut by to be proud of.

Be a new person that your people in Kakuma will see, so they can also change.” Lohalith, like Lokonyen a Didinga, saw her village burned to the ground by Dinka tribesmen. That act touched off a lonely 16-year journey; Lohalith never spoke to her family again. But she and her teammates say that Loroupe’s training center never buckled under tribal conflict. Lohalith takes no satisfaction in the fact that no Dinka is included among the five South Sudanese runners eventually chosen. The IOC made the final decision and, says Pere Miró, an IOC deputy director general, based it solely on the ability of each refugee to, if not medal, “compete, at least, in the Games.” “In running they don’t choose accord- △ writers should be taking notes.
