As I estimated in the beginning, it was staged. Some of the soldiers are reported to have said "We were sent out for a so-called drill. Only when people started climbing on the tanks, did we understand what we had been dragged into." Fully armed and supported by tanks, the soldiers indeed looked like they had no idea what was happening. They soon surrendered and you must have seen the pictures.
It is obvious that some officers convinced others to start a collective coup. They were sure it was going to hit home. Soon enough they realized they were left alone in the rain. Probably tasks had been assigned (like detaining mp's). And they were never fulfilled. That is why some of them haphazardly tried funny stuff like bombing the parliament midway.
In the end we have poor young kids whose sole concern was to complete their compulsory fucking service and go back home. Instead they got gutted by proud bearded apes, who were rallied by none other than the great Tard himself. Ok guys, everything is fucked beyond repair now. There is no use in discussing anything about the future of this place anymore.
