Did the US have the right to start the Spanish American War?
The answer to this question is a matter of political opinion. The Spanish American War was fought over issues of Cuban independence. While it might be noble to think that the United States supported Cuba in its efforts toward independence because the United States supports the ideal of independence as an ideal of freedom and democracy, the United States was really interested in establishing colonies of its own. When the revolution began in Havana, the United States sent the warship Maine as a gesture of solidarity and support. She remained for a month without engaging an enemy before she was destroyed. More than 200 men were killed in her destruction. The circumstances surrounding its destruction are mysterious. It was either a mine or an accident. When the United States entered the war for Cuban independence they simultaneously began battling for the independence of other Spanish colonies: the Philippines, Puerto Rico and Guam. In the end, the United States won control of all four former Spanish colonies. Today, the Philippines and Cuba are independent countries, but Puerto Rico is a freely-associated commonwealth of the United States and Guam is a US Territory.
