In Turkey, new demands to evict US forces from Incirlik Air Base
By: Shawn Snow and Andrew deGrandpre, May 14, 2017
WASHINGTON — A prominent Turkish newspaper has demanded the eviction of U.S. troops and warplanes from Incirlik Air Base as fallout there worsens from the Trump administration's controversial move to arm a Kurdish militia fighting the Islamic State in neighboring Syria.
In a front-page editorial published Friday, the newspaper Sozcu called for Incirlik's complete closure. It's an unlikely outcome, military officials and observers say, but a clear sign of how dramatically relations have deteriorated between the NATO allies.

As Turkey moves towards becoming an all-out islamic republic, we ought to be considering our options.
Sooner or later, the U.S. is going to be told to "get out" of Incirlik.
Might as well have a plan ready.
