While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” the Federal court for the eastern district of virginia refuses to hear Heghmann v.

Wright Allen writes in her decision to dismiss that Heghmann lacks legal standing, and “there is no traceable connection between alleged injury and the defendant’s conduct.”
