The United States has been involved in numerous wars and conflicts since the 1980s, with a variety of motivations ranging from protecting national interests to promoting democracy and human rights. This video provides a comprehensive overview of the U.S. government's involvement in wars over the past four decades.

Starting in the 1980s, the U.S. supported various rebel groups in Central America, including the Contras in Nicaragua and the Mujahideen in Afghanistan. In the 1990s, the U.S. led a coalition of countries to remove Iraqi forces from Kuwait, and later intervened in the Balkans conflict, including the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

After the 9/11 attacks in 2001, the U.S. launched the War on Terror, which included invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. The war in Afghanistan, which is still ongoing, has become the longest war in U.S. history, with no clear end in sight. The U.S. also conducted drone strikes and special operations in countries such as Pakistan, Yemen, and Somalia, often with controversial consequences.

In recent years, the U.S. has been involved in conflicts in Syria, Libya, and Yemen, providing support to various rebel groups and conducting airstrikes against terrorist organizations. The U.S. has also been involved in a long-standing conflict with Iran, including economic sanctions and military posturing.

While the U.S. government has justified its involvement in these conflicts as necessary for national security and promoting democracy and human rights, many critics have argued that the U.S. has often acted hypocritically and pursued its own interests at the expense of civilian lives and global stability. This interview with RT looks at the complex history of U.S. involvement in wars over the past four decades. As the EU and USA use Ukraine as a proxy country using Nato to destabalize Russia.
