FROM WOUNDED KNEE TO LIBYA: A CENTURY OF U.S. MILITARY INTERVENTIONS

Here is found a partial list of wars and military interventions http://academic.evergreen.edu/g/grossmaz/interventions.html

Guess that George Carlin was right when he said that "Americans are a war like people, we love war!"

What are your thoughts on this?

the US army and Navy operated with a certain amount of Independence because of the lack of quick communications, so most "interventions" before about 1918 can be put on the shoulders of the people in charge of the military in that area.
