This is a timeline of United States military operations. The list through 1975 is based on Committee on International Relations (now known as the Committee on Foreign Affairs). Dates show the years in which U.S. military units participated. The bolded items are the U.S. wars most often considered to be major conflicts by historians and the general public. Note that instances where the U.S. gave aid alone, with no military personnel involvement, are excluded, as are CIA-based operations.

War is what governments/nations do. I know for most, if not all of us, on 4um, the litmus test for candidates first and foremost is that he/she is anti-war, anti-neocon. Well, the reality is, we're not going to get one--at least one that can make any headway.
