“How could we have our own base WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS be breached and not secure? “
Here is my understanding. It is a Turkish base under Turkish control and we are allowed to use it for limited purposes. Also, I have read that the nuclear weapons were removed in 2003. It would make sense to remove weapons from a base where you may or may not be allowed to use them by a government with a different agenda.
In other words, a borrowed base.
I was quoting ncfool, and forgot to put his part in italians.
Sorry for the confusion that caused.
