Do you know why America is called the world's big brother..? Do you know why it has been the only superpower for 35 years? Do you know why America points a finger no matter what happens on earth? Do you know how many bases that country has abroad, more than any other country in the world? Did you know that only America is able to establish the largest number of military bases in the country it destroyed with a nuclear bomb 80 years ago? Now, with America's involvement in the Iran-Israel war, many things are coming to light. America attacks Iraq, Libya, and iran somewhere. In fact, it seems that it is present in any conflict in this world. After donald trump became president, he was very aggressive. He is trying to appear to the world as a messenger of peace. And if you believe that the country has military bases all over the world, then you have to believe it.
Last year, there were reports that the reason why Sheikh Hasina stepped down from the post of prime minister of our neighboring bangladesh was because the US did not allow the establishment of a military base in the country's territory. If you look at this calculation, America had 750 military bases in 80 countries just four years ago. It is noteworthy that there are 120 American bases in Japan, which fought fiercely in World war II, and 119 in Germany. It is reported that there are 73 American bases in South Korea, which always faces a threat from North Korea. The united states put all its efforts into the gulf war that broke out in the early 1990s. After overthrowing Saddam Hussein, it also established a base in Iraq. It is noteworthy that the united states has 40,000 soldiers in West Asia, which is always in a war environment. Most of them are on warships. The rest are in 19 bases.
The US has 8 permanent bases in Israel, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and the UAE. The US first set foot in West Asia when it set foot in lebanon in 1958.
