Personally, I think we should get out of Europe and out of South Korea. Both are wealthy and should be forced to take care of themselves and neither appreciate our sacrifice.

In addition I think we should retrieve our navy from places we have little national interest in and redeploy them to the places/routes we do.

The rest of the world needs to step up to the plate and be responsible for themselves instead of taking swings at us for providing the peace at great expense.

Unfortunately our interests include keeping the world's sea lanes open to international shipping. If we didn't the increasing piracy would shut it down.

Agreed 100%. I can think of few places, other than Israel, that I think we should support militarily. Let the Eurosocialists and Islamic fascists kill each other while we develop our own energy resources and defend our own border from the incoming illegal multitudes.

A couple of questions:
A MAD MAN is running North Korea and has threatened
Nuclear war against Japan and South Korea-should
we leave them?

The chinese have deployed OVER a 1200 MRBM and A
million man striking force against Taiwan-should we
leave them?

Iran came to the U. N. last year and on 3 speeches said
they would obliterate Israel- and fight the U.S.- should
we leave them?

Like it or not we are tied to other nations to protect our
freedom. There are still Evil monsters in the world and they rise up daily- Chavez,Castro,myanmar. To name a few-
