Don't understand your question. Do you mean the wars the US is involved in right now?
A lot of people point to Israel, but it really started when Bush Sr. decided to start deposing tyrants like Noreaga. There has become a policy shift is "wars for justice" since the end of the cold war.
Kicking Saddam out of Kuwait, deposing dictators, creating stability in Somalia, avenging ethnic cleansing in Eastern Europe.
It's like Napoleon's been reborn.
But then, there are those that have attacked the US as well. The war on terrorism is basically not new either. There was a war on piracy some time back. We need stability to have a better global economy, if we want prosperity for all. Kind of like a superhero.
I may not agree with their way of going about it, but the ends are well intentioned.

it all actually goes back to Truman and the concept of containment. The US was so afraid of the spread of communism after WWII that they started alienating certain nations on an ideological basis, which turned into pre-emption.

what i understand, is definately a war of own interests, and US people pays the war, soldiers died for nothing, but they definately get the oil.
