The United States has engaged in preemptive wars at various points in its history, notably during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) when it sought to expand its territory, asserting that Mexico posed a threat. Another significant example is the invasion of Iraq in 2003, where the U.S. justified military action on the grounds that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction and posed a potential threat to national security, despite no immediate attack. These actions reflect a strategic approach to conflict based on perceived threats, often sparking debate about their legitimacy and consequences.
