#1 Have the nukes been moved out of Incirlik yet? Reports saying they were moved to Romania (or some such) weren't positively confirmed.

#2 the United States, now finding itself in the paradoxical position of directly supporting two warring factions

This is just hilarious. Can't anybody here play this game?

#4 Meanwhile, some 50% of this country continue to support Hillary. Are you fucking kidding me? Why aren't there more passionate pleas to loving this country? Why do we continue to allow the Dems (and the National Review Online, and the "never Trump") to claim that they love this country without STRONG outrage at such a BULLSHIT claim?

If you're so smart, let's see you get out of the Army.

#6 Biden delivered a message of alliance and conciliation: "Let me say it for one last time: The American people stand with you ... Barack Obama

"one last time?" That sounds like another useless, feckless, neutered line in the sand. Anyway, it doesn't seem that Ergodan really gave a flip what Obean or Biden said. I suggest moving the nukes out of Turkey to a safer location if they haven't yet.

#7 Was this during the infamous "full and frank discussions" held between Turkey and the US

OR

Was this contained in the dreaded "sharply worded letter?"

Diplomats are a bunch of pussies that don't want to accomplish anything and are too CS to stand for anything.
