Anti war is not an identity. American is. Nationalism is the solution.

But plenty of people that are into nationalism are just fine with America being the world's terrorist/spreading democracy. It sounds too vague to me although I agree that we should take pride in our dirt and founding principles and try to make things better.

What those people can't see is the fact that our "imperialism" is driven by private interests. The best tactic is not to oppose war itself, because often war is necessary for defense and to curb the aggression of other nations, but to oppose the manipulation of our foreign policy by those not interested solely in national defense.
