For that matter, we could say that's why Palestine and Lebanon. If we interpret the ongoing survival of Israel - despite it's consistently appalling behaviour towards its neighbours - as made possible by its role as the base for US military power in the Middle East. Which I do, because it also explains US administrations of all stripes turning a blind eye to genocide.
I believe this is also why Orange Stalin is raving and pointing at Canada, Alaska, Greenland, Mexico and Panama.
