Spain most certainly wouldn't.
So, Whitehouse, you're telling me the guys that sent a naval ship to support the Gaza flotilla, is the base of the next floatilla launching, and has routinely and aggressively opposed Israel, their crimes against humanity, and disregard of international law, much louder than any other country; that Spain has suddenly started helping with the Iran thing?

Hard to tell when we're playing word games and not, these days.
If a u.s base is in Spain, it's jointly operating.
