[QUOTE="Dale00, post: 1701424, member: 688"] First, I think there are treaty obligations for us to provide military protection for our allies. Second, I believe closing bases in Asia would create a power vacuum and let the mainland Chinese take control of Asia. This would be a bad thing all around. Brazil and Germany do not have military forces abroad because they believe that it is not in their interest to do so. If they thought is was advantageous for them to have foreign bases, then they would. If we withdrew our military to behind our borders, then perhaps they would see a need for foreign bases. We are not the only nation to have military bases abroad - Canada, Italy, Russia, England, Australia and others also do, I believe. [/QUOTE]
