U.S. forces are deployed worldwide to protect our allies, including Japan. Since Japan's constitution is an anti-martial document, the U.S. picks up the slack to serve as a bulwark agains N. Korea and China (and in the past, the USSR).
Your last question is ludicrous. Japan is not a terrorist state - and further, Japan has full sovereignty and LEASES its bases to the U.S.
How many more times do you plan to ask this question, by the way?

The Japanese people may not like US soldiers stationed in Japan, the Japanese Government does want the US military there. They pay the US very good money to keep a US military presence in the country due to the constant threats from North Korea and possibly China.

Japan and the US are friends. The US will remove their bases as soon as North Korea and China are no longer threats to the region. The US bases are not a threat to Japan's sovereignty.

Remember Pearl Harbor!!!!
Only we in Rhode Island still celebrate victory over Japan day. Must us in little Rhody aways have to be the conscience of the nation? Besides if we leave does that mean Honda will leave America - I hope not - I like my Acura made in Ohio ;-).
BTW - we have bases in the UK, Germany, Italy, and mooring in Israel (Haifa), Saudi Arabia, and a few other places - does it mean we are running the show in any of those countries either - like no. None of the countries today - including Japan - want us pulling out. American military presence in Japan saves Japan a huge amount of money in the cost of its own defense and acts as a lever against hostility from other countries like North Korea for instance.

Its a base where they are close enough to keep an eye on that part of the world. China North Korea, Afganistan, ect ect The likelyhood of the US leaving Japan is about the same likelyhood as a snowball in hell.

For everyone that said Japan doesn't want us out: That is exactly the questioners point. The same applies to Iraq.

We are allies with Japan and provide mutual protection and support. IF Japan wanted out, they would ask and we WOULD leave. The US is NOT an Imperialistic country.

In all cases, I believe we will depart whenever the host country asks us to.
Most of the countries where we have military stationed enjoy having us there. It provides them an element of safety that costs them very little and they get quite a bit in return including a lot of free-spending US military families.

US base is necesarry in Japan.
The world should know what have been going on in the S.E.A and South China Sea.
Phillipines made a mistake. After US base and troops withdrew, you know what happend, around 1992-1995.
