history is against you

occupation of germany ... our troops and bases remain there -since '45
occupation of japan ... our troops and bases remain there - since '45
occupation of south korea ... less settled political situation than the two above and our troops/bases are still there - since '53

you may not like the benchmarks joker has proffered, but that does not make them less legitimate. we broke it, we own it
