The USA has 800 military bases across 80 countries.
Do you know how many the country with the next highest number has?
145 bases across 42 countries. And that would be the UK.
So, no. These military bases are not to "protect" Americans. They are there to dominate the world through military power.
If a military base on the territory of one of the 80 countries hosting U.S. forces is used to launch attacks against a sovereign state, it is entirely foreseeable that the targeted state will view that base as a legitimate military objective and respond accordingly.
The people of countries hosting such bases should be asking why their governments allowed their territory to be used to wage war on another nation, often without meaningful public consent. Accountability begins with those who initiated or facilitated the attack, not with those who retaliated.
Watching some Arab governments, and citizens (!), condemn Iran for striking military installations that were clearly used to launch attacks against it is remarkable. If those bases were indeed used in military operations against Iran, then presenting the response as an "unprovoked attack" ignores the sequence of events.
So spare everyone the selective outrage. If you're unwilling to acknowledge cause and effect, or the role your own governments may have played, your criticism rings hollow.
Flock cameras aren’t keeping you safe—they’re chaining you like a dog to the Zionist-occupied surveillance state.
They’re a cancer that needs to be destroyed along with every local elected sellout that’s profiting from them in your county.
"The line between law enforcement against antisemitism and the suppression of dissent no longer exists."
On Dr Shola Speaks Live, Maher of @Pal_Pulse1 argues that the distinction has been eroded by what he describes as the deliberate conflation of Jewish identity with the State of Israel, particularly through the application of the IHRA definition of antisemitism in public discourse.
He contends that framing criticism of Israel as antisemitic rests on the premise that Israel must exist as a Jewish state because it was established as a refuge following the genocide of European Jews. Mayer challenges that premise, arguing that Jewish communities across Europe today enjoy legal protections, political representation, and strong state intervention against antisemitism.
From that perspective, he argues that the rationale for maintaining Israel as a refuge for European Jews no longer applies. Instead, he advocates for the return of Palestinians to their homeland and says that justice cannot be achieved while Palestinians remain dispossessed.
A thought-provoking discussion on dissent, identity, historical narratives, and competing visions of justice in Palestine.

Let me explain why Iran and the US are trading shots again.
Under the MOU, Iran was to control the Strait of Hormuz shipping corridor for 60 days. Trump instead quietly backed a second route along Oman's coast, bypassing Iran's control.
Tehran fired warning shots at a vessel using the new corridor. The US used that as justification to resume bombing Iran.
There's no way to spin this as Iran being the side that broke the ceasefire.
Why are Israel’s supporters almost always pedophiles? It’s mind-blowing.
This soulless sagging ghoul has relentlessly incited the slaughter of Palestinians around the clock.
They remain silent when the US kills schoolgirls, bombs hospitals, threatens to nuke Iran, or starves Iran with brutal sanctions for 47 years. Yet, they cry foul over Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz.
Tyler Robinson is innocent , The bodyguards killed him.
This new angle of the Charlie Kirk assassination shows us how the bodyguards' top priority is to get rid of the evidence of the crime.
None of them covered for another shot or looked for the shooter because they blew Charlie up with a bomb in his mic. see video next ⏭️
