    any statistics on how many of these countries are glad or relieved to have our troops there versus how many of these countries resent our presence?

    Many of those bases and soldiers are there for peace keeping, not aggresive muscle flexing.

    And from the soldiers I've spoken too, many of those areas welcome our soldiers presence.

    But I digress, continue accusing and bashing the US, we can take it.

    I took a look at that list and it seems to me that they aren't doing anything in a lot of these countries viz most of the European countries.

    And it's not exactly the people of those countries that 'allow' them to be there.
    THANK YOU, LOSTDAWG!

    see that is the attitude that gives the US their bad reputation. and just why would you think that? the reason why most islands in the caribean and countries in central america are screwed is because that is the way the US goverment wanted it.

    Instead of sitting here and bickering about the implications and number of US military bases over seas why not focus on the implications of an ever expanding federal government on our own soil.

    its very telling, to those that may not have known, the number of US bases around the world. and to see the world in such shitty shape tells us how the US is doing running this empire. when enough people figure this out they'll demand change at home.

    The word "empire", like the word "fascism", is now meaningless.

    Where are the frost giants Ive begged for protection?
    I'm freezing

    Are you afraid, afraid to die
    Don't be afraid, afraid to try
