The United States, and several of its allies are currently using United States military bases around the world in their strategies for maintaining a presence in the conflict in the Middle East ( et.al.)
Most of these bases are not often mentioned nor are they thought of readily when considering where various aggressive missions, troop deployments, and strategical data gathering, occur that the public are made aware of in these operations.
Should we in the US, and again, our allies who also facilitate their military participation and strategies at said bases, be concerned about the safety, cost, or possible takeovers of these locations, with the spread of Isis and it’s affiliates throughout the world?
In some countries we currently are operating these bases, Isis training camps are located within the borders of the same country. Does this make a difference for the operations or concerns we should have concerning our interests in the areas and countries?
Should you wish to see the placement of Military Bases of the US, and joint allied agreements with said bases, please use the following comprehensive article:

We are not regarded as the most powerful nation in the world for no good reason.
Good point @Cruiser.
Here’s just one area where it gets sticky-
Isis has negotiated areas for extensive jungle combat training in Thailand. The Thai government… well whomever is the latest group to take charge, isn’t interested in paying overt attention to this practice. ( future connections?)
Now- the US-

A tad dated, yet ties are still present between us today.
This is a little dicey if gambling, no? Spit (metaphorically) and hit ISIS bases?
Should it be a concern?
I am concerned. A lot.
Where else?
Northern Africa.
The US ships there cannot exit all personnel if a planned multi-faceted confrontation occurs.
What close countries would want to offend ISIS – there in their midst?
I see an entire section of the globe, with our bases and wonder at the true feasibility in remaining on all the teeter-tottering fronts.
D’you?
@SquirrelEStuff – I can’t get the attachment to open. Probably my error.

Uh-oh… they’re jamming our computers!!!!
Someone in Düsseldorf, Prague, or Westminster, no wait!
Marrakesh!!! That’s it! :)~~~~
Is there another way into your attachment, please?
@msh When Shite hits the fan we simply reallocate resources to where needed most and when that is not enough we bring in the reserves. Most nations respect our ability to do this and why we are not messed with and sit up and take notice when we decide to take any kind of military response. Unfortunately in hindsight many of these decisions can be deemed unwise. Damned if you do…damned if you don’t.
Sorry, life got in the way.
@SquirrelEStuff – who translated this? I need more info.
There are some big differences in how this was translated.
It is not the same- it doesn’t ‘fit’. I question this documents’
Validity due to some statements that do not go with the ’ standard party line’, if you will.
It was interesting to tead, however. Thank you.
I am aware of a lot of them. Especially the ones my parents visit, I have been to, and friends were stationed at.
