# e" R6 g2 q& W% S5.39.217.76The late Chalmers A. Johnson, a professor from the U of California, has written extensively on this subject: Blowback,Second Edition: The Costs and Consequences of American Empire; The Sorrows of Empire: Militarism, Secrecy, and the End of the Republic; Nemesis: The Last Days of the American Republic. In these books, he describes America as an empire of bases, attempting to build it in the Roman model. The number of bases keeps on increasing despite the end of the Cold War. Its role has fallen out of strategic necessity, and explains part of the reason why there is an ever-increasing military expenses. tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb) W/ X# y- S" {" P! ~/ a5 e

Thank you felicity for your comment.  It might appear that I am very against US, it is partly true, nearly all of their foreign policies are absolutely noxious.
