If you look at the countries to which we have deployed troops since the fall of the USSR, they all have a couple of things in common it would seem to me.

Human beings are joiners by nature. They need acceptance. What will happen to Turkey (for example) if they are shut out of the EU? Look at NK - they belong to nothing. They have been left behind.
