You do realize that we have troops stationed in over 100 different countries?
Tally, Are you insinuating that having U.S. Troops in a country = meddling in their business?.
Many of those U.S. troops are stationed abroad by invitation of their hosts. Kuwait, Korea, Kosovo, Bahrain, Afghanistan...all of these countries are arguably happy we came and happy we are staying. That is just a short list of happy sponsors.
Of course not everyone in the world likes us. Who cares. Democracy has this tendency to rub dictators, strong men, and communists the wrong way. Just as we see many in this country hate capitalism. Too Freeping bad. I think you can be a little more realistic as to why some idealogically impaired groups fight our presence.

But where does our government have the authority to place them there at "our" expense?? Are there threats to our Constitution in Rwanda??
