Turks are holding 50 Nukes @ Incirlik AFB hostage. That has always been their ace in

the hole. And ours against the Russians doing anything threatening toward the USA. Anything we have ever done in regard to Turkey has always been with that boogie man in the closet. Don't know what the process is for dismantling and getting uranium, etc out of there and if it can be done safely but I'm sure State and DOD is now figuring what to do.

Glad I'm not on that base serving. Turkish president is slowly withdrawing from NATO and aligning with Russia which won't end well for them. Or he is bluffing and wanting more for his allegiance. His decision back when to purchase Russia's S-400 air defense system was a tip off. He likely leaving NATO and Europe. And we have some decisions to make. Leave strategic bases there and destroy their economy which the president has threatened to do or a possible world war. This was always the nightmare and was just waiting for a radical leader like the one they have now. Now he is threatening Trump has done all he can to warn him of the consequences. "Don't be a fool and destroy your economy" is easy for anyone to understand. The Russians can't and won't feed them. The Turkish people elected a guy who has appointed himself dictator and now they will pay a price.
