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.

So was this the idea of Erdogan or the terrorist that lives in our White House, or both.

The air force doesn’t have back up generators there? Those warthogs would make good tie breakers. I smell a stand down order from Barry...

If an enemy fired a nuclear missile, or two, into LA causing enormous death and damage, the White Hut would go silent.

About 3-4 weeks would pass and an ultimatum would be issued from the oval orifice: ‘This better not happen again or we’re going to issue ultimatum # 2.”

In other words, nothing would happen. This pervert and his retinue would be in hiding.

Now if Hillary were squatting in the White Hut with her gaggle of lesbians and other various life forms of perversion, it wouldn’t be much different.

Cowards seldom do and this specimen is the most sniveling of cowards.

He might get all wee’weed up over the tragedy, but after all he infamously stated that America could take another 9/11 hit.

There is very little this military can do now with all the PC,MC,and AA officers, the gay and lesbian officers and NCO’s, Gens like Tammy Smith and idiots in charge like Admiral Mullen who is all for the queers and lesbians. And the Gen says to the BN CO-”that captain commanding Charlie company had best remember to make time for lactation or his ass is relieved.”
