..why are US military bases still there? It does not appear that they have independence.

Let me remind you that the USS Maine was not attacked by Spain. It was a false flag event for an excuse to steal some of Spain's colonies.
John D. Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan - swung the election of 1896 to Republican William McKinley. They launched the USA into an imperialist foreign policy and it has not stopped.

England and Germany aren't colonies either, but we have bases there.
That's because they are ALLIES, not colonies.

Germany is a colony of the west. Who do you think won the war?

England is part of the western empire. England is a shareholder of the Federal Reserve System. The Rockefellers are shareholders of the Bank of England. The Netherlands too. Deutsche Bank is a shareholder of the FRS. That is how they formed an empire of alliance.

Why do you think the propaganda in the UK, France, the Netherlands, Italy and other nations with banks that are all shareholders of the FRS are aligned? They all have an interest in keeping the US dollar as the world reserve currency because they all profit from it. When Saddam Hussein sold oil in currencies other than the US dollar why do you think all of those countries wanted war on Iraq?

Exactly.
The Philippines was being quite standoffish to the US, and threatened to close bases down.
Then, as time went along, they realized that China was an existential threat and the US is now opening more island bases.

funny how that works, eh?

The USSR. NEXT!

According to David Vine, ​​professor of political anthropology at the American University in Washington, DC,
the US had around 750 bases in at least 80 countries as of July 2021.

Any more questions?

The western empire has it's colonies pretend to be independent to give you that impression. Don't listen to only words. Notice their actions.

Did the Philippines close any bases down?
The Philippines is a colony of the USA. Has been since we took it from Spain. Japan and South Korea too. De facto colonies.

If Germany is not a colony why do they not complain that Biden sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline making natural gas much more expensive which screwed over Germany? All so we can sell NG for a lot more than they would if they could still buy it from Russia.

If Germany is not a puppet colony of the USA why do they not complain about the USA screwing them over so badly? The USA cut them off from a great deal on NG from Russia. That amounts to economic sabotage on Germany. Only puppets stay silent when taking it up the ass like that. Common sense.

Hahaha why do you keep saying “we” you’re clearly an operative of the eastern empire headed by China with its tag along junior partner Russia ( soon to be a vassal state ) of China.
It’s much better to be in cahoots with a screw up democracy like the US than an all controlling dictatorship like China. The reasons are obvious to any honest individual.
