Gateway Pundit ^ | 07/17/16 | Jim Hoff

Incirlik Air Base in Turkey has been placed on lockdown. The base is used by US, UK, Saudi and Turkish forces to run airstrikes against ISIS.

The power at the base was reportedly cut off after the coup attempt Saturday morning in Ankara and Istanbul.

And flights are grounded.

The Erdogan government believes the air base was used to launch attacks during the coup attempt last night.

Now this….
Turkey is holding the US military hostage at Incirlik.

If if if if Worry number one making sure the second muslim CIC does not occur.

This election is about liberty , freedom and rights.
She wants to kill our freedom of speech in UIN 1618.
BLM is probably their vehicle for insurance. A race war would keep them in power and allow them to put 1618 into place.

FUUN, FUBO, FUHC

If he surrenders to Erdogan we become a Turkish colony and not a sovereign nation, so no election will be held.

As long as America is destroyed, it’s all good as far as Obola is concerned.

As with the USN, Obola-the-cryptoterrorist-Moslem from
Indonesia may direct a handover of intel,
names, and maybe nukes.

It certainly will make Obama very happy to give
nuclear weapons to al Qaeda, Iran and anyone else
willing to use them on America and its allies.

Really hate going to the Gateway site....greedy Jim Hoff loads everything in the ad space when you hit his site. That’s why half his postings are BS clickbait.

Let me clarify your observations of your president.

He is not a bowl of mush, but rather, more of a lying sack of shit.

Better yet, ALL taqiyya smoke and mirrors.

This could be as retribution for Obama denying handing over that Cleric to Erdo. This guy Erdo is a madman, or he believes Obama is a wimp.
