US has 5 secret bases in Israel (new book)

New book says U.S. has five secret military bases in Israel

The United States has five secret military bases in Israel, according to a new book published recently in United States.

"Code Names," written by journalist William Arkin, a former U.S. intelligence official, says there have been secret ties between the U.S. and Israel since the September 11, 2001 attacks.

Arkin says the American military is present at Ben-Gurion International Airport, in the Tel Aviv suburb of Herzliya Pituah and in three other sites, called bases 51-56 across the country.

The book also claims to decipher 3,000 code names and secret passwords used to develop international military contacts between the Pentagon and other countries, including Israel.

The book also offers a detailed description of U.S. military ties and secret presence in countries in the Middle East, Asia and Africa following the 2001 attacks.
