The United States military is present on all continents, with more than 700 bases in 40 countries. Why do US armed forces continue to be deployed after a conflict? What are the strategies? Is it a way of imposing American options and visions on the world? What is the cost? Has Obama changed how things are done? And how do the people who live around these bases experience this permanent invasion?
