OH c'mon.  "From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli.." 
Jefferson was most likely exceeding his constitutional authority messing 
around North Africa to protect private shipping interests. For a country 
that 'would rather not mess around with other countries' it has messed 
around with almost every other country in the world. 

Sometimes the justifications are hilarious like McKinley's little 
missionary activity.

" Unaware that the Philippines were the only predominantly Catholic nation 
in Asia, President McKinley said that American occupation was necessary to 
"uplift and Christianize" the Filipinos."
