US military personnel and equipment have been deployed to foreign countries in emergency and disaster situations for decades, including to countries which were not exactly allies, shall we say. Unless you can show some real evidence of malevolent intent, your objections come across as mere xenophobia.

Are you serious?

How about the fact that there is now no 'emergency' or need for foreign troops to be here? And yet...they are here.

As for malevolent intent...have you been paying attention to the daily news out of Washington? There is a traitor in the White House.

“security at mass events” does not sound like medical and disaster relief to me, nor does it sound like “training”. That’s the statement that got my ears up.
