“”””We fight and create permanent bases worldwide - over 800 publicly known so far and likely hundreds unknown to the public””””
There was nothing made up, you are claiming that we have more than 800 military bases and your source includes that we have 54 military bases in Guam alone and that American cemeteries in foreign countries are “military bases”, it does things like list Aviano Air Base in Italy as “at least eight” separate bases.
Ansel, we have multiple bases in many countries.
That doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
There are apparently well over 800 US bases outside the continental USA.
Here is a database built on Google maps (I think), that allows you to:
Search by category, use, country..
And zoom in, which is cool.

There may be another tool like this online, but this is the most detailed and usable I’ve found so far.
