Defend Edit Meaning

1.

In America this means terminating anyone and everyone for their own personal security, even if it meant the entire world would be destroyed. It's also common to attack weak countries that could possibly stand up against them in certain ways, or for national benefit.

And then call it "Defending"

This can also be described as: "Fighting for peace" or more correctly "Fighting for our peace, screw everyone else"

Let's attack iraq and take their oil, it could be to our benefit in the long run. While saying it's to defend our country.

This is correct yet egoistic.
