a quik look at why does the United states g*t 800 military bases around the world?
"Earlier in the history of warfare
man learned that the best formula
for victory was compounded in striking
power, mobility, self protection.
there is no doubt that the US is the most powerful country to have ever existed on this earth.
and it certainly spends more on its
military budget than any other country
does today.
for example list as follows of countries
is the exhibit of my claim:
China ($129 billion:
Europe $70 billion:
United kingdom $61 billion:
France $53 billion:
Japan $47 billion:
Saudi Arabia $ billion:
that's pretty well- known,but less well- known is the fact that the US has around 800 military bases around the
globe as mentioned above. the following are just some of the location dot to give you an idea of where these bases are
clustered.
these bases are everything from massive military compounds to small airstrips in the middle of the ocean.
if you combined all the foreign bases that every other nation has outside of its own borders you get a total of thirty
there's never been a country with such massive global presence.
and the question is how did these bases get there in the first place?
for example >
Russia = 9:
Great Britain +France =13:
Japan =1:
Australia =1:
Israel =1:
the Netherlands =1:
India =1:
S.Korea =1:
Chile =1:
Turkey =1:
Now how much is it costing the United
states taxpayers to keep the open?
most of this bases are cropped up after WWII, when the US set up in places like Japan, Germany to help intervening in peace after an era of global war.
" But we cannot expect these people
to discard N**i ideas says one US official***with the casual air with wich they abandoned their uniform slowly, steadily they must be taught the fundamentals to democracy.
our task is to supervise this training
in democracy!"
even though this countries are now stable Robust democracies and the US has still 50,000 troops in Japan to this day and 54,000 in Germany. the Korean war brought an influx American military infrastructure to the Korean peninsula where the United states have 28,500 troops stationed.
the cold war made the U.S. expansion
to every corner of the globe imperative to the US strategic goals. "Here in Europe and Russia is the reason why its spending billions of $ dollars in military production, why your family is paying the highest taxes in the history of the United states. but even now that the cold war's is over there's not a place on earth that's not still covered by US military influence still.
this includes everything from naval compounds like those at Guantanamo bay to small drone bases like those in the horn of Africa, to little- known posts in the middle and the Indian ocean like that of Diego Garcia.
and it's not cheap keeping the US foreign bases open it cost taxpayers between 70 and 100 billions dollars per year that's more than any other government agency Receives in taxpayer money besides of course the
Department of defense itself.
taxpayers pay between ten and forty thousand dollars more per soldier stationed abroad than they do for those stationed here domestically. but the lawmakers have
the idea that us military leadership providing indispensable stability to the world is now a fixture of other global strategy and it's foreign policy.
in world of breathtaking change the
one constant is American leadership.
Obama say-the United states lawmakers believe that you can't have
stability without American leadership there's only one nation in the world capable as Republican Leader,senator
Marco Rubio from Florida says:
he says it's only the United states that's capable of rallying the freedom- loving people on the planet to confront evil! is he Right? I guess not!
American leadership it's not just Respected it is Required to do what it's doing Right now according to the Republican lawmakers! however for the past years the United states set up military bases all over the world in response to threats and then they just never left. those hundreds of bases around the globe represent a massive
system military power that isn't often talked about, it's the American taxpayers that are financially supporting this.
if you all decide that it's worth it to
pump hundred billion of dollars out of
the US economy to keep these bases open on far countries around the world.
