When was this made? ‘Cuz our country has one to now… I think. Maybe we plundered one night the whole base, who knows…

Wowwee. Considering how many times I’ve heard the ‘At least we got rid of that evil dictator Sadam’ argument, you guys sure do, well, cooperate with a lot of dictators, many of whom have terrible human rights records.

I’d like to know what qualifies as “hosting US troops”. I mean, after all, is China on the list because of that one time they rammed our EP-3 and it had to do an emergency landing on Hainan island?

Even if it is accurate, it’s outdated. Since 2005 the base in Vieques, Puerto Rico has been closed down due to endless protests by locals and the governor.

This appears to be updated in some spots but not others. Iraq looks up to date, but the US has been out of Clark and Subic in the Philippines since the early 1990s. There are currently advisors there helping the army against the separatists in the southern islands, but the major bases were closed over a decade ago.

These bases–Clark and Subic Bay–are designated “Former US Base” in the map. Same goes for the base in Puerto Rico. Take a look at the top right hand corner for the legend called “Installation Type.”

Just FYI–I know from personal experience–this map only shows the major US installations. It doesn’t show any of the minor ones or the outposts. I know for sure that there are a hell lot more US bases in Europe.
