Germany must be wondering why it is keeping enemy bases on its soil.

Japan was just asked why the US spends so much defending it...
Because they went in to protect their own interests in the world after the world war 2. They dropped 2 nukes on Japan, remained in the country, and now they want money. Crazy people.
We also wrote their constitution that they can't have a military.

They still have the jdf but we kinda forced this position, it's a bit of a baffling question.

Of course it's only baffling if you assume it's asked in good faith.
