      I was more suggesting that America inserts itself into other countries conflicts sometimes with benevolent intentions, other times not so much.

      Either way America never seems to see a war it doesn’t like.

        It’s kind of how the DoD defense plan works. Bases all over every continent so that the US can fight Russia and China from someone else’s yard. It also incidentally protects those other countries.

        There are completely Americans that want war.

        The US actually hasn’t declared war since WW2 and the US military industrial complex is fucking hungry to never slow down. Like the US spends nearly a trillion dollars a year on the military and that’s not including all the sales to other countries and such.
