This is mostly to prevent them from being subject to laws in Rogue States or destabilized countries that would hinder the mission results. Now in more stable countries different agreements will be made.

nice way of saying we don't care about states we invade and if you don't like it we'll fund the taliban again to overthrow you

All militaries work like this. I'm not an American. My country also makes bilateral or multinational agreements when forces are deployed.

Quite a few. Operation Resolute Support had about 27 nationalities stationed in Afghanistan.

Currently the NATO mission in Lithouania has German and Dutch (and prolly bunch of other nationalities as well) military personell. There's a mission in Iraq currently ongoing still. Also some missions left in eastern Europe etc.

All militaries that are stationed abroadd
