Crapweasel Iraq War? No. Just based on lies and nothing else.
Afghanistan? Object was to get bin Laden. We got him.

Using your definition, the only "just" wars, the only ones where our freedom was at stake by virtue of an attack on America would be the war of 1812 and WWII. Afghanistan comes close, given 9-11, but Al Qaeda did not have the resources to continue an attack.
For all other wars, remember Carl von Clausewitz---"War is the continuation of politics by other means". Please do not denigrate the service of those who fought and died in those conflicts. I will refrain from shredding to pieces your erroneous assessments of the conflicts you listed, but you may want to decrease your MSNBC viewing time
