Full Title: BOMBSHELL Top secret locations of 150 US nukes hidden in Europe are accidentally leaked in Nato report sparking major security fears
SECRET sites storing 150 US nukes have been accidentally revealed in a Nato report, it has been reported.
The United States and its allies in the Nato military alliance never disclose the locations of the nuclear arsenal but it appears the six sites have inadvertently disclosed.
A draft version of the document entitled A new era for nuclear deterrence? Modernisation, arms control and allied nuclear forces was published earlier this year.
But Belgian newspaper De Morgen spotted that it contained details about the nuke sites.
A section on the nuclear arsenal read: These bombs are stored at six US and European bases Kleine Brogel in Belgium, Büchel in Germany, Aviano and Ghedi-Torre in Italy, Volkel in The Netherlands, and Incirlik in Turkey.
The study was written by a Canadian senator Joseph Day for the Defense and Security Committee of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly.
The final version of the report has now been published online with specific reference to where bombs are stored deleted. MORE AT THE LINK
But part of the article seems to refute or draw doubt on it (Senator Day says the article is based on information available to the public?)
Accidentally, MY ASP!
I agree. No accident.
Yeah, Accidentally. Right.
I believe that.
Because Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny both confirmed it to me.
In my reading on other boards, this was already sort of an “open” secret, like Israel’s nukes.
The mistake was official confirmation.
Little Justin trying to get even?
Odds are very good that anyone really interested already knew where they were.
Nevertheless, it’s still considered classified.
Everyone already knows the US has nukes at Ircilink or Aviano, what is the media trying to trigger?
“Odds are very good that anyone really interested already knew where they were.”
If not then their spies aren’t earning their pay.
NOTHING is accidentally leaked.
Correct, it was an open secret. Our boy scout troop camped at two of the those locations.... Not like he was helping the World Socialism defeat the Free Markets.
“Accidentally.” Yeah. Right.
Big secret, Missiles in Turkey?
Yeah, the Google Earth, “dmz” for all of them have been out for quite a while. Got the Russian sites as well.
Russian spies would have to be pretty bad not to already know that information. I knew of several of them 20 years ago.
How can a publicly known secret be leaked?
I thought the nukes were gone from Incirlik!?
They should have been gone in 2003 when Turkey wouldnt allow us transit. The writing was on the wall.
Were on the same page.
