America has troops in between 100-200 countries. You still haven't left Germany yet. I'm not calling America "the great satan" or anything, but you have a very narrow perspective on your view of history. The cold war is now over, so why do you still need these bases? You actually said it yourself. Those bases "were" necessary.
I know my history, very well, and refuse to whitewash the despicable acts that my own country has perpetrated throughout history. If you expect me to be anything other than objective, you are sadly mistaken, and your defence is pretty lacking in any kind of substance.

If it wasn't for America, you'd be a Soviet Republic right now. Don't forget that. You had no defense from the soviets just like the rest of post war europe. The only reason democracy survived in Europe was because of American protection. That's a SOLID FACT.
