Does this sound like Ezekiel 38? I used to work around some nukes back in another time and saw some scary thinks happen that could have resulted in a lot of destruction.

Only takes the local Texas boys a couple of hours to get power restored around here. And that even includes transformers that go pop. If it takes Turkey more than one day, it is because they want it to take that long. So what Kerry heard was just BS. A day or so my butt.

Yes that is a possibility. If they run out of fuel and Turkey keeps the power off, they may not even be able to access the nukes. They are underground and I assume they need lifts to bring them up to ground level. At that point, the nukes are Turkeys. The next step will be getting them without the destructs being performed. Does the destruct also need power ? Do the nukes have internal batteries ?

This is speculation...but it’s how I think things are done.

They almost certainly have internal batteries..

They would permanently disable the nuke’s electronics and then collapse the walls and drop an enormous amount of concrete and dirt on them.

Then come in force to recover them... they can bomb the site with drones or missiles to keep the Turks out....they could even do this for years if need be.

Israel has low-yield neutron weapons that she could use to keep the Turks away from the buried weapons...but conventional would probably suffice.

They could go to Tbilisi and would be welcomed warmly.
It’s not that far from where they are now....I sent Putin a tweet asking him to get them out. Bet he laughs about that!

Erdogan wants the Nukes so he can give them to the Kurds

Erdogan should be TLA-executed.

He is contrary to the interests of the United States.

It’s a BARGAIN.

Nope. It's a capitulation.

If it happens, the officials responsible should be considered traitors.

The whole situation seems crazy.

Three weeks to move the nukes?

They are out of fuel in 1 week, which is not good.

The B61 Mod 12 device consists of the aerodynamic bomb casing structure that mounts on the plane and the Physics Package which holds the thermonuclear device, detonator and trigger mechanism.

The physics package which contains the nuclear materials is separate and removable from the bomb . It's actually quite small - say a couple feet in diameter by a couple feet long. Easy to transport and easy to secure until mounted on bomb casing

I have to assume that the US Military is taking all appropriate steps to secure the devices - these are thermonuclear weapons we are talking about.

But then again, this is the Obama Administration we are talking about.

I would not put it past them to actually be colluding with Islamists to hand over the weapons. They certainly did this with our weapons in Iraq and actually supplied weapons to Islamists in Syria

Going to be interesting for the next several weeks.

It's total BS and Obama is playing games here.

NOBODY messes with the US military when it comes to security of our nukes unless we are letting them - especially not a country like Turkey with a strong Islamic terror network.

The fact is that Turkey has our base under siege and Obama is letting them get away with this which is ominous.
