In the last 2000 years, Europe has had only about 61 years of peace (1945 - 2006), largely because of the U.S. Sorry, your question is not valid.
As for WWII, that was the result of France and England's harsh treatment of Germany following WWI. Also, I guess you never heard of Napoleon or the Ancient Romans. Even 400 BC the Greek city-states were constantly at war with one another and prior to that Greece and Persia were at war with each other (should I keep going)?

For over 2000 years Europe has been at war.
The only reason a free America exists is because the French took our side in the war of independence (even though they hated us) to spite their ancient enemy the Brits.
Before that the Greeks fought wars, and the Romans, and the Phoenicians, Genghis Khan slew millions whilst conquering most of the known planet (including India and China) so successfully that 1 in every 200 people on this planet carry his genes (the man loved his spoils of war).
Mankind's history is drenched in blood and war. And for all you Iraqi sympathizers remember the real name of that country is Babylon, check out their military history.
And don't blame America for Israel, the British created the modern middle east they ruled Palestine and gave Israel nuclear technology.
Grow up or shut up.
Or go to school and learn some history.

Your observation is completely wrong because wars existed prior to the existance of the US. The Crusades, France and England had fought. The roman empire had standing armies and expanded accross europe etc. The Greek city-states fought with each other. The Great Wall of China was built to prevent invasion so regardless of where you go people have been fighting wars against each other since the beginning of time.

There was no United States of America (USA) before 1700. And if you knew any history, the world was full of chaos long before the USA was born.

first there is evil surounding a good empire, but when the president or leader of wich, lacks of leadership, there is no more ideas there is no more passion for the country or the people, not just anybody can be a president and people need to learn how to choose one, we the people need to stand up and demand what we need for our contry so our country can do for us as we do for our country, and maybe then they will stop sending our brave country man " the marines" and arm forces to die or kill just for the lack of leadership.

You obviously haven't paid attention in history class.
Wars were going on all the time...the only difference is that back then, they were all about religion.

Have you been paying attention? We are the world's police force. We try to stop evil regimes, in particular, those that are responsible for atrocious crimes against humanity. Educate yourself!
