Iran Is Surrounded By US Military Bases And Facilities

An overview of the US military's Middle Eastern facilities.

ABC News Online: Iran is surrounded by US military bases and facilities. Here's a snapshot

Tensions between Iran and the United States have simmered for decades since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, but in recent weeks their longstanding tensions appear to be boiling over.

I remember an E6. His wife was 1st nation. He was a good ole boy from the south and I do mean good sincerely. His wife had been raped.

He told me that his kids ages 2 to 4 knew, who the rapist was. But no one would tell him. Given that most victims know their rapist, it was most likely another 1st nation man(?)/'warrior', relative. He'sis not a big guy, but god help that Indian. He is going to get beat down bad.
