You are so obviously wrong. When a country has been defeated it has historically been for us to occupy for a lengthy time to make sure that said country doesn't conveniently slip into their old ways. That is why the USA has occupied Japan, Germany, South Korea etc.
This is a new Obama policy which could come back and bite us in the a**.
