Just what the US needs: More deployments!

Wow. It's a good thing we've got a ton of forces laying around to send to South America during their off-rotations from the war. Too bad they're not hanging out at the beaches chasing women.

US President Barack Obama's national security advisor said Tuesday Washington will give a 'good explanation' for plans to deploy US military units to bases in Colombia, after unease expressed in Latin America.
Retired general Jim Jones told reporters after meeting Brazilian Defense Minister Nelson Jobim in Brasilia that the goals of the agreement being negotiated allowing the use of the bases would be detailed.
The matter 'will have a good explanation and a satisfactory outcome,' he predicted to reporters as he began two days of talks with Brazilian officials on that and other defense issues.
Brazil and other Latin American nations, including Venezuela, Ecuador and Chile, expressed alarm at the announcement last month that the United States military would use and expand bases in Colombia.
