You still barely know anything about history. The current Iraq war was started because of the bullstuff claim that Suddam had weapons of mass destruction. The first one was caused by Iraq's invasion of Kuwait.

Revolutionary War- Fight for Independence.
War of 1812- British attacked us, for reason unknown for me.
Civil War- Fight for States rights, ended slavery in the U.S. and set an example for many countries.
World War 1- Helped our Allies defeat the Germans.
World War 2- We were attacked by Japan, because they wanted to take us over.
Vietnam War- We lost, but it was mostly a Military Police thing.
First Gulf War- Reasons still unknown to me.
Second Gulf War (Current War)- Spurred on when the terrorist group that is located in Iraq, destroyed the World Trade Center, and they crashed into the Pentagon, both symbols, the WTC of our capitalism, and the Pentagon of our military.
So as you can see most of the wars were to protect others and/or we were invaded first.

You missed a lot of important stuff.
Revolutionary War was fought to get away from outrageous British taxes and oppression.
War of 1812 was fought because of British influence and presence in Canada, Intentions where to annex Canada, it is regarded as a draw.
Korean war was fought over the Communist North trying to take over the south. Which ended up in a draw to this day
Vietnam war was fought over the Communist North trying to take over the south. But the reason the US got involved was the Vietnamese sunk a boat in the Gulf of Tonkin Which ended up in the Communist take over. Little did people know that Vietnam is rich in Uranium
First gulf war was fought over Iraq trying to Annex Kuwait
Afghanistan war is a current on-going conflict as result of the WTC attacks
The second gulf war is the war that apparently Sadam Hussen had weapons of mass destruction, and Now we're there to stop a civil war, that's been going on for thousands of years
