Well since the U Boat threat is gone, maybe we should re-think our Military in Iceland policy.

We defend other countries, while thousands of illegals pour over the borders every single day.

I agree whole heartidly with protecting and defening our borders and using the military, particularly the National Guard of the various states to do so...along with constructing a solid, well watched barrier fence.

But the submarine and other threats to the sea lanes are not gone. The Russians still have a credible threat and the Red Chinese are quickly developing one. The era of traditional, major warfare is not over. We need to be prepared and Iceland can be relatively easily defended if we maintain our presence there.
