Turkey, and several other countries in the region might not either. We're not the "shining city on the hill" to a lot of them anymore.. Unless I saw the actual bilateral agreement and the words that said the US can use those countries for military action [directly or indirectly] against Iran, you have to pull every one of those flags off the map and start from scratch. You might get SA, Kuwait, and the UAE back in, but there's no certainty there by any means. It's hard to imagine that any country in the mid-east would be interested in further de-stabilization of the mid-east. I don't get the impression that any country has any intelligence that Iran is actually pursuing a nuclear weapons program. jttmab
