Which ones? Surely not the US as they have been invited to most of the places in the ME by their indigenous populations.
It'd be like saying the Swiss colonised Rome just because they have some soldiers in the Vatican...
You might want to do a quick google on what a military occupation is, Champ.
Story for the late reply.
Where is the hostility between the US and, say, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, Jordania or Saudi?
I can understand occupation in Iraq and Syria. But even there local leaders (like the kurds) don't seem hostile.
It seems entirely possible, to me, that you’re running off of state propaganda sources and not objective reality nor history.
Maybe take a visit to your local library, where you can read all about it!
Seriously, though, stop eating all those bullshit sandwiches, this isn’t even worth arguing with.
