Come on yo be nice. And yeah, this kind of question is going to just get a million people on here to try and degrade America like always about trying to take them over or some pathetic excude.
I recently did a security mission to Africa in which I was camped at Djibouti (for you Marines on here); and we were loading and unloading food and water for African countries. I mean I don't know about most of you anti-American critics, but how many of you can say that your country does that for just anyone? And it's not just Africa, it's just about anywhere where it is needed. And do some research as well on stuff like CFC, American charities that donate to all sorts of stuff and a lot are overseas somewhere.
America does SO much for the world and all we hear is anything bad and 99% of the time that bad thing is something biased off some pathetic lie someone had to make up to fuel hatred toward America. You kind of people make me sick and are only representing YOUR nation in the way you show yourself and I don't know about you...But *iting all over America for what we do is...kind of wrong? I ono' that's just my opinion lmao
PS: This war in Iraq *cough cough* Has anyone had the nerve to mention England, Australia, Japan, and the many other nations that are in all these middle eastern countries? There are a LOT more than you think and a LOT more that are doing a lot of positive meaning damage for the same reason America is.
Btw, Muslim extremists, which are the target of this war, didn't just kill thousands of Americans the day they rammed down those towers which didn't just hold in Americans but people from other countries, but they also attacked England, Spain, Germany, and a crap load of other countries, and only some of these countries are involved in this 'war' so what have you got to say to them that you cram down our throats huh? DIDNT THINK SO

The source cited is out of date (January 2005), but it might give you some idea.
"The forces of the United States military are located in nearly 130 countries around the world performing a variety of duties from combat operations, to peacekeeping, to training with foreign militaries. Some of these deployments have existed for nearly 50 years, as in Japan, Germany, and South Korea, while other deployments have more recent origins such as the current occupation of Iraq."

135. We aren't fighting in most of them. Just helping the locals or keeping up a base.

I agree with the above answer. Your questions are set-up for bias answers. Go hug a tree.

I suggest you find an answer to your question elsewhere unless you're looking for bias.
