ADVICE ABOUT POSSIBLE LOSS OF U.S. CITIZENSHIP AND FOREIGN MILITARY SERVICE A U.S. citizen who is a resident or citizen of a foreign country may be subject to compulsory military service in that country. Although the United States opposes service by U.S. citizens in foreign armed forces, there is little that we can do to prevent it since each sovereign country has the right to make its own laws on military service and apply them as it sees fit to its citizens and residents. Such participation by citizens of our country in the internal affairs of foreign countries can cause problems in the conduct of our foreign relations and may involve U.S. citizens in hostilities against countries with which we are at peace. For this reason, U.S. citizens facing the possibility of foreign military service should do what is legally possible to avoid such service. Federal statutes long in force prohibit certain aspects of foreign military service originating within the United States. The current laws are set forth in Section 958-960 of Title 18 of the United States Code. In Wiborg v. U.S.

U.S. Foreign Military Assistance Program Descriptions Budget Requests Congressional Appropriations Database on U.S. Security Assistance FY 1990-2003 Database on U.S. foreign military training (IMET) and aid (FMF and other military aid), searchable by fiscal year, country and region. Program Descriptions Listed below are several U.S. programs that provide foreign states with military and related assistance, directly and indirectly supporting U.S. arms transfers. Foreign Military Financing: Foreign Military Financing refers to congressionally appropriated grants given to foreign governments to finance the purchase of American-made weapons, services and training. Since 1950, the US government has provided over $91 billion in FMF to militaries around the world. The vast majority of these funds goes to Israel and Egypt to reward them for making a cold peace in 1979. Economic Support Fund Congress established the economic support fund (ESF) to promote economic and political stability in strategically important regions where the United States has special security interests. The funds are provided on a grant basis and are available for a variety of economic purposes, like infrastructure and development projects. Although not intended for military expenditure, these grants allow the recipient government to free up its own money for military programs. International Military Education and Training

4. Foreign Military Sales foreign military Sales (FMS). The foreign military Sales (FMS) programis the governmentto-government method for selling US defense http://www.dsca.osd.mil/home/foreign_military_sales.htm

Foreign Military Sales (FMS) The Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program is the government-to-government method for selling U.S. defense equipment, services, and training. Sales in FY98 were approximately $8.6 billion and $12.2 billion in FY99. Responsible arms sales further national security and foreign policy objectives by strengthening bilateral defense relations, supporting coalition building, and enhancing interoperability between U.S. forces and militaries of friends and allies. These sales also contribute to American prosperity by improving the U.S. balance of trade position, sustaining highly skilled jobs in the defense industrial base, and extending production lines and lowering unit costs for key weapon systems. The Department of Defense has launched a major effort to reform the current foreign military sales system and to ensure that this valuable program remains viable into the next millennium. This reform effort will focus on improving the FMS system’s performance and adopting better business practices wherever possible. Total sales through FY2002 can be found in the DSCA Facts Book 2002 What is Security Assistance Brief (entering DISAM) Back to Military Assistance

5. Terrorism - U.S. Foreign Military Training: A Shift In Focus The United Kingdom U.S. foreign military Training A Shift in Focus from the CDI Terrorism Project human rights conditions in foreign military institutions, strengthening democracy, and increasing U.S. military the focus of U.S. foreign military training in the name http://www.cdi.org/terrorism/miltraining.cfm

April 8, 2002 Printer-Friendly Version Since the end of the Cold War, the United States has trained more than 100,000 foreign police and soldiers annually, both within the United States and in about 150 countries around the world. These programs have a multitude of specific goals: ranging from English language training, counter-narcotics strategies, and preparing forces for peacekeeping operations. In the past, many training programs have been justified on the grounds of improving human rights conditions in foreign military institutions, strengthening democracy, and increasing U.S. military interaction with foreign governments. Military training has been a prime tool in counter-narcotics operations in countries such as Colombia and El Salvador. Counterinsurgency operations skills have also been a leading focus for U.S. military training in countries such as Uganda, Nigeria and Rwanda, in order to facilitate UN peacekeeping missions. Regardless of the circumstance, the use of military training has always been acceptable under the premise of transferring U.S. political ideals to foreign governments and military institutions. However, the administration of George W. Bush has recently shifted the focus of U.S. foreign military training in the name of fighting terrorism. Since Sept. 11, the United States has offered military training to many countries victims of terrorist activities, or struggling with the presence of terrorist networks, including the Philippines, Indonesia, Tajikistan, Ethiopia, Yemen, Uzbekistan, Georgia and Colombia. Within the next several months, the Bush administration is planning to continue expanding the reach of these military relationships in order to strengthen the U.S. led campaign against terrorism. In a speech on March 11, 2002, President Bush clearly explained the purpose of this far-reaching effort when he said, "we will not send American troops to every battle, but America will actively prepare other nations for the battles ahead."

Haiti this week started to look a lot like the Congo in 1960. That was when the United States and Belgium, the Congo’s colonial master until June 1960, fomented a rebellion against newly elected Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba. The rebellion, which not coincidentally flared in the oil- and mineral-rich Katanga province, was led by Moise Tshombe, a wealthy plantation owner who was backed by 10,000 Belgian troops. Lumumba unwisely invited in United Nations “peacekeepers” to fend off the attack. Instead of helping him, the U.N. forces disarmed Lumumba’s troops, thus aiding Tshombe’s rebellion. Meanwhile, the CIA helped Col. Mobutu Sese Seko seize power in a September 1960 coup. Mobuto then arrested Lumumba and turned him over to Tshombe, who had him murdered. Could this scenario be repeating itself in Haiti today? On Feb. 17, Haiti’s former colonial master, France, craftily offered to send troops to help quell a patchwork rebellion which it has helped foment. Over the past three years, for example, French diplomats, in violation of all diplomatic protocols against meddling, have funneled money to Haiti’s principal opposition radio station, Radio Métropole, and chaperoned Haitian opposition leaders on trips and in marches around the country, while constantly and sharply scolding the Haitian government despite President Jean-Bertrand Aristide’s unending, unilateral concessions to his intransigent adversaries. France also orchestrated the European Union’s funding of Haitian opposition groups to the tune of almost US$1 million last year.

Anti-Bases Campaign Welcome to our home page... Waihopai a satellite spy base near Blenheim in the South Island of Aotearoa/New Zealand. The base is an integral part of the international intelligence network run by the US National Security Agency (NSA). WHAT IS THE ANTI-BASES CAMPAIGN (ABC)? We are a Christchurch-based group with links and members all over Aotearoa/New Zealand. We concentrate on the foreign military and intelligence installations in New Zealand. There are three - the US "Deep Freeze" military base at Harewood (Christchurch Airport); and the "NZ" intelligence gathering installations at Tangimoana (Manawatu) and Waihopai WHAT DOES THE ABC DO? We engage in research, education, publication and direct action. We have run campaigns on all these three installations, concentrating on Harewood and Waihopai. Historically, we have organised actions such as the 1990 Touching the Bases Tour, in which people from New Zealand and throughout the Asia/Pacific region visited all three bases. In the past, we have sent representatives to actions in Australia, the Philippines and the US. We have hosted overseas experts here, most recently Canadian ex-spy, Mike Frost , in 2001. We actively network with a wide range of groups.

Environmental Protection An independent Environmental Assessment Panel conducted a public review of military flying activities to consider its effects on the ecology, health and socio-economic integrity of the region. Public hearings were held in the communities most directly affected by the project. More Socio-economic Considerations The 6,758 (2001) residents of Happy Valley-Goose Bay represent nearly one third of the total Labrador population. The Base provides employment for a large local civilian workforce of permanent and seasonal employees, many of whom are of native ancestry. More Low Level Training Allied nations continue to have a requirement for low-level training. Both NATO and the United Nations have expressed the need to retain a capability to respond to international instability and threats posed by regional conflicts. More Aboriginal Considerations There are no aboriginal settlements within the training area, although groups and individuals may travel or camp in a number of locations during certain periods. Some aboriginal groups have expressed their opposition to military training due to concerns relating to the environment, their traditional way of life, and land claims issues.

Foreign Military Studies Office 101 Meade Ave Fort Leavenworth, KS 66027-1351 The Foreign Military Studies Office (FMSO) researches, writes and publishes from unclassified sources about the military establishments, doctrines and strategic, operational and tactical practices of selected foreign armed forces. It also studies a variety of civil-military and transnational security issues affecting the U.S. military, such as peacekeeping and peace enforcement, counter-drug support, terrorism, insurgency and peacetime contingency operations. FMSO's studies, articles, briefings and lectures broaden understanding of foreign military developments and support policy formulation, decision-making and military education. FMSO actively participates in military-to-military and academic outreach programs with the Commonwealth of Independent States and other countries around the world. HERITAGE OF SERVICE The Foreign Military Studies Office was formed in 1986 at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, as the Soviet Army Studies Office (SASO). Its original mission was to provide necessary content for those studying the Soviet Army. By exploiting open-source Slavic language materials, SASO provided soldiers and their leaders in-depth information about Soviet and Warsaw Pact military capabilities. The subsequent collapse of the Warsaw Pact in 1989 and the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 prompted reorganization of SASO into FMSO. As fundamental political-military changes took place in the world, FMSO expanded its research mission to encompass a broad range of transnational issues affecting U.S. military policy, strategy and doctrine. Today, FMSO works to anticipate security challenges and threats which may evolve in our rapidly changing global environment.
