the bases in Europe are part of NATO installation, in turn a legacy from the Cold War. New bases in Pakistan are part of deal struck with current govt for particular war.
most bases are not stationed without due cause set by US or part of an organization.
Military installation serves presence and threat for current and neighboring countries. If US had no rational for stations, it would same as China having a military base in Cuba.

US is not so much worried about N Korea as a threat but rather they want to have heavy military presence in China and Russia.
N Korea only has the threat to take out neighboring countries but China has ICBM which can strike US. Also the economic power is a big threat.

During the Cold War, it was about expansion of communistic ideals but now its more about economic power.

"China's primary concern isn't to prevent North Korea from developing a nuclear weapon, but to ensure that the regime there doesn't suddenly collapse, sending a flood of refugees over the border into northeastern China.
There is also a common view among Chinese experts that a strong, unified Korea represents a threat to China as it would bring to its border a key U.S. ally, and the People's Liberation Army would end up face-to-face with thousands of U.S. troops stationed in the South."

At the end of the day, no one really cares about peace in both Korea. Its US vs "whoever"

Surely it would be better for Korea to have unification. Imagine the economic opportunities of bringing millions of N Koreans out of poverty. Would Germany have been better off if the East had stayed Communist?
- actually yes.********
- Short term there will be pain, but as a nation they will have much more power in the endukit
- actually yes.

Korean always wanted unification. Regardless of economic costs.

Baba Vanga predicted this:
2010 – World War III. War will begin in November 2010 and end in October 2014. Will begin as usual, then nuclear will be used initially, and then chemical weapons.
