“I find it kind of bizarre that you consider eagerly squandering our military might in 130 nations around the world at the behest of a corrupt United Nations is somehow “pro-America” or “pro-military.””

What 130 nations?

Name them. Oh wait you can’t because you’ll probably cite that bullsh*t posted by that flaming retard lew rockwell as “proof”.

DoD Base Structure Report - FY 2006 Baseline Report

Page DoD-32 of this report shows a total of 766 bases overseas, with 16 of them "large."

Page DoD-71 starts the inventory of overseas bases, as follows:

Antigua, Aruba, Australia, Bahamas, Bahrain, Belgium, British Indian Ocean Territories, Canada, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Hong Kong, Iceland, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Kuwait, Kwajalein Atoll, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Netherlands Antilles, Norway, Oman, Peru, Portugal, Qatar, Saint Helena, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Trucial Oman Coast, Turkey, and the UK.

The report omits installations in Afghanistan, Kosovo, Iraq, Kyrgyzstan, Qatar, and Uzbekistan, among dozens and dozens of others, such as Camp Comanche in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Maybe since it's a "camp" instead of a "base," it's not included in the report.

This link is a front-end to a database of US installations worldwide. A simple keyword search sorted by country is a good way to get a list.

Afghanistan, Australia, Bahamas, Belgium, British Indian Ocean Territories, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Cuba, Cyprus, Greenland, Ecuador, France, Germany, Greece, Guam, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, Iraq, Italy, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Kosovo, Marshall Islands, Netherlands, Norway, Panama, Philippines, Portugal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey, UK, Uzbekistan.

Both of these sources omit mention of Camp Simba in Kenya, for example.
