''Standing Army'', directed by Enrico Parenti and Thomas Fazi, is a 2010 documentary film about the global network of U.S. military bases, the impact that these have on local populations, and the military-industrial complex that lies behind it. ==Synopsis== The United States has 250,000 soldiers stationed on more than 700 military bases in at least 40 countries across the globe,.〔(www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/report/2009/hst0906.pdf)〕〔(www.defense.gov/pubs/pdfs/2009baseline.pdf)〕 This deployment has continued to increase.〔(http://colombiareports.com/colombia-news/news/5291-us-military-will-have-access-to-seven-military-bases-in-colombia.html)〕〔(http://www.stripes.com/news/new-bases-in-bulgaria-romania-cost-u-s-over-100m-1.95658)〕 The film explores historical displacement of native populations, including Italy, on Diego Garcia (an Indian Ocean island) and the Middle East.〔(http://www.globalpolicy.org/iraq/political-issues-in-iraq/permanent-bases.html)〕 The film posits that while the traditional definition of the term empire means possession of colonies, the foundation of an "American empire" is based on a worldwide network of military bases. While they used to serve as simple supply facilities in war-like conflicts, they are often formed in the aftermath of armed US interventions, raising the question if this is intentional strategy.〔(http://www.historyisaweapon.com/defcon1/grossmanbases.html)〕 The film presents various data and concludes with Chalmers Johnson, former CIA advisor, who claims this is a new type of imperialism containing a self-destructive recoil force that will lead to a medium-term decline and the ruin of the American position of power in the world.
