the US has a long history of peace, trade, treaty, ect.
We’ve been at war for something like 250 of our years of existence. We invaded all our continental neighbors, most of Latin America, plus Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Grenada, Panama, etc. in living memory.
The trade deals we sign are often at gunpoint (see “gunboat diplomacy,” the opening of Japan, our history of coup attempts against countries that don’t run their economies on our terms, constant sanctions, etc.).
You seem to be disappointed that your assumptions are wrong. BTW, the Korean War was with the UN which the US is part of. Vietnam, peace treaty signed Iraq, another agreement. Afghanistan, trump signed that one. Last time I was in Grenada everything was cool. Panama was a US protectorate when we invaded. US citizens there.
Vietnam doesn’t need to sign a trade deal next month. China doesn’t want them to do it. But they’ll sign with Biden.
Why? We are the largest market on earth.
There are no assumptions here. We did, in fact, invade those countries. You are giving America’s stated justifications, which do not mean the invasions didn’t happen.
Not justifications, results. If you want justifications I’d have to go through each one. In fact, I’m not sure you read it Panama at the time was not it’s own country. I’m not sure Grenada is either.
