He stopped just short of being a warmonger.

I get that. But I think he'd agree that, in theory, that not having bases in Okinawa or South Korea would be a strategic mistake. 

I am not sure what his position was on Bush's invasion of Iraq was. But I do know he hated Saddam and had lectures about his coup. 




(Bold mine)

These things are easily lookupable.
