Regardless of your position on President Trump, Erdogen is an Islamist and nukes are tempting targets. All that is needed is one provocation to push Erdogen to attack the US in Syria, get the US to respond against Turkish troops and bang, he has his “justification” for seizing the nukes.

Get them out!

Take that chip off of the table. Quietly fly them out to other US airbases.

I would assume that every nuclear weapon in Turkey has a "failsafe" self-destruct mechanism in place that enables it to be destroyed in a catastrophic emergency.

Seizing those things would be the dumbest thing anyone could possibly do.
