re you kidding? You in Germany have more of our troops than most and we just opened a huge new base and part to our embassy that i recently visited...and neither candidate seems to want to have defense based security (military protection round the embassy, nuclear shields over the base etc) which is horrible. Not to mention neither seem keen to put a shield over Eastern Europe and with Iran even more likely to get a nuke, well its your life at the end of the day...
Seems like you can't decide what exactly the risks are (terror/Iran/??) and I'm still waiting why Obama ( or McCain) will thus increase our risks.

My prediction is nothing big will change and so your hope for disaster (for whatever reasons) is unfounded.
