Around the globe on all of our bases.
I would bring our troops home and close every military base in the middle east and if they brough a military vessel any where close to withing hitting our country i'd blow it up with the press of a button.
If we weren't on the other side of the planet with our military, they would be safe.
I noticed (without my using any silly memes btw) you never answered this question:
"So just exactly how would YOU have proposed we deal with a nation not only declaring "death to America" but was also actively killing Americans around the globe? tell us what you'd do differently to accomplish the same results Trump has, decimating their war making ability and erasing their radical war mongering leadership?"
Your answer (if that's it) not only reveals your naivete, but your misunderstanding of global strategic deterrence to avoid an unprovoked attack or protracted war. It sounds more like a football Coach who's determined "not to lose" by surrendering 80 yards of field to his opponent, and lining up all his defenses only 20 yards away from the goal line, then daring the other team to try and cross that final 20 yards!
We don't have those bases overseas to start wars or invite conflict as you suggest. We have them to protect our strategic global interests, and keep our enemies from invading our own end zone HERE in America! The Iranian Mullahs weren't limiting their attacks to our military bases overseas, they were attacking us at home, as well as our strategic assets overseas!
Thank God we have a President who has more strategic foresight than you, because under his leadership those radical Islamic terrorists Hell bent on destroying us both at home and overseas are now
dead. If you were in charge, you'd still be waiting on your own 20 yard line for them to attack your defense and overrun your weak azz blitz call on 3rd and goal!
(Now it's time for a silly meme to mock your dumb defensive strategy)
@cam_blev's defense gets shredded protecting their own end zone from the 20!
