Am I missing something, or would that be one US invasion in the last hundred years, in 1994 when Bill Clinton invaded to stop the military coup in Haiti that overthrew the elected Aristede, and left two years later? Do you think the US should not have invaded in 1994?

Haiti was occupied by the US from 1915 to 1934, committing many atrocious acts. United States Marines invaded Santo Domingo in 1965.
