No. People fight wars for many reasons. Some Southerners fought the war for non-slavery related issues. At the end of the day, the question of slavery had to be resolved.

Also, I asked for "several" examples. Some non-US wars would be helpful for your argument... wars without pre-recorded moral superiority that has been passed down through 8th grade and 11th grade high school US History education (and yes, I taught 11th grade history, so I know where the indoctrination comes from).

The Crusades. I think the aggression by the Europeans during these conflicts was wrong.

Yes. Most people love their families, go to work, laugh, dance, sing, etc. We have more in common than we have differences.
I am not sure what you want, it seems whatever, I give you will find something wrong or something missing. My views appear to be very different than yours on these issues.
