You were likely not taught about the wars that we didn't send troops to, but instead created foreign militias under ruthless men who would be sympathetic to our commercial interest, or just funded the war with weapons and money.
Here's an incomplete list: Nicaragua, El Salvador, Chile, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Angola, Panama.
Do the research, its pretty scary.
And thats not even counting all the popular revolutions against oppresive dictators that we squashed in the name of "national security". Vietnam falls under that category. The threat they posed to us is as laughable as the "threat" Iraq posed.
