Presumably the logic is like that of the US bases in Iraq -- if we
put em on the ground, it will be very hard for the natives to get
rid of them. Not only are they extremely ugly and already becoming
garbage magnets, but as others on this list have observed they are
very high maintenance -- which presumably is the point.
