Australia?

Post by totes6 »

President Barack Obama and Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard on Wednesday unveiled plans to deepen the U.S. military presence in the Asia-Pacific, with 2,500 U.S. marines operating out of a de facto base in northern Australia.

Doesn't Australia have a decent military already? Why the heck are we deploying troops there? What happened to bringing the troops home? Wonder how much this is going to cost us?
