I was wondering.  How come America has been in so many wars.   It's a puszzlement to me.

WAR AND PEACE
Tolstoy wrote about Napoleon
An evil war mongering aggressor
I wonder what Tolstoy would write about America
Is American an evil war mongering aggressor
Of course not!
 Americans are peace loving people
America is a peace loving Nation
And yet, America has be in so many wars
The war for Independence
The war of 1812, the Mexican wars
The Indian wars, the war between the states
 The Spanish-American wars
World War I, the war to end war.
World War II, the Korean War, The war in Viet Nam
The never ending wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
Little wars in Granada, Panama, Somalia
 Lebanon, Haiti, Bosnia, Kosovo, Libya
What might Tolstoy ask?
Are Americans are a peace loving people?
Is America is a peace loving nation?
