Bout as much problem as I have with other countries now doing flyovers over America.Oh they pay us so they can get flight time— but they also get real time experience that might prove necessary in the future. I do not believe we have military bases in any country that has NOT invited us.I would prefer we
regroup to reclaim that ideal set by George Washington about avoiding all foreign entanglements as much as possible” but some of them bases you refer to do serve strategic purpose as intel and restraint .
Did Iraq invite us in or Afghanistan? The way we get into other countries is by bribery of US aid. I can not imagine the founding fathers had that model in mind when this country began. We in a sense we give them money so they can buy our weapons. The US has never moved beyond the war time economy since WW2.
