Any time those countries don't want the protective umbrella of America in their countries, all they have to do is ask. Most countries are more than willing to have America for it's ally, and to have American forces protecting their country and their region.

Enemies of freedom and democracy definitely want America's powerful forces out so that they can more in.

In America's war against terrorism, which side are you on?

Why would you have an issue with American forces being staged overseas to protect other countries?

America is solely responsible for the freedoms and democracies of the entire world. America is a blessing to the world and a curse to the thugs, dictators and terrorists.

Which do you consider America, a blessing or a curse?
