There isn't in the north, it seems that some are happy to see the way the cards have fallen.
These bases were post gulf war I. That was the rational for our buildup there.
OK, so do you think that we are *more* culpable, or the House of Saud that invited us?
Again, I must say, wrong target for actual change to be effected.
Please look up the phrase "the tyranny of the majority"
OK, but there was a "military response" to us, yes?
If the government in place does not take the "majority of the population"s" views into consideration, why is it our place to second guess the invitation to set up a base that is in our geopolitical interests?
That is the real question here, if it is in our interest, and we find a govenment that is willing to set us up in a stratigic location, why is the local supersbreastion against "whitey" really supposed to trump this?
Europe is not in our interest????
You have snipped all meaning from this so I can not reply, remember it was reguarding your Latin America comments.

I am actually a freeking anti-GW anti-gulf war II kinda guy, but this "Bin Laudin is a folk hero" line is not rational, there is real-politik and it is what runs the world.
