“Yeah, because NATO is known to aggressively invade neighboring countries all the time.”
Well, we do have 750 military bases across 80 nations.

Non sequitur!
Might actually be used to argue the opposite: That NATO is peaceful!
Peace through strength!

Because they want us there. We are not there as aggressors or conquerors. If the don’t want us there, we leave (as we did in the Philippines several years ago). And we have a permanent lease for Guantanamo, and it can only be broken if both the US and Cuba agree.
Having bases is the same as INVADING other countries?
Bullshiite.
We should implement my emBASEee Strategee... from my home page
I have been advocating for several years a policy I call ‘embaseees’. Embassy + AirBase —> EmBASEeees. We go into a terrorist country, clear out their taliban equivalent, then withdraw to very large Embassies, perhaps 3 of them. Have them big enough to encompass a military airbase where we can use it for decades on end to conduct anti-terrorism operations. As long as the ‘host’ country aint killing Americans then we let them have self-sovereignty. Kind of like how we operated in the Phillipines for decades. We could even have an intermediate zone that we patrol but it would be autonomous. Let them have their taste of freedom. A referendum every 10 years to see how large the boundaries of the intermediate autonomous zone should be.
