First of all, it would have been WWII, and secondly, I have no idea where you got that idea.
Do we want to be everywhere? Do we or do we not want to be the de facto hegemon? We talk like we don't, but act like we do. Which is it?
662 bases outside of the US or US territories. Do we really need that? Hell, do we really want that?
I dont mean to be rude here, however its not a question of what "we the people" need. Never was never will be:

In order to control millions of people totalitarian governments find it necessary to somehow prod their subjects into accepting that which is not true. Intelligent people will naturally see the truth and thereby comprehend when government lies to them - and so that's the rub - how does totalitarian government deal with intelligent people when they must be lied to?
George Orwell provides the answer - intelligent people must be conditioned to reject self-evident truth - to reject the sanity of common sense - to accept the insanity of Orwellian Doublethink - to accept the lie and the truth in their minds simultaneously - "with the lie always one leap ahead of the truth."
How do Dictatorships lie to intelligent people and get away with it? In the early stages of totalitarianism the use of Orwellian Newspeak is preferred to blatant in-your-face lies because Newspeak is the clever manipulation of words which mean one thing to the speaker and it’s opposite to the listener <---[all law created by dumb acting very smart psychopaths that slices or removes your individual rights comes under this heading] - Newspeak lies thereby tend to confuse or escape the notice of unsuspecting people. For example, government which confiscates middle class property through excessive taxation, while lining their own pockets and redistributing the stolen property to a lazy so-called proletariat class in return for votes, is government deemed to be a provider of "Equity" and "Social Justice." Never mind that equal property outcome destroys the work ethic of both the middle class and the proletariat class leading to economic collapse, and never mind that equal property outcome is a big Orwellian lie because, like the Pigs of Animal Farm, the elite government class empowered to take property ends up with the lion's share of property. [through their never dying agencies and trusts and through violence to insure it remains under the control of the handlers]
Greed and theft by the people who administer totalitarian government cannot be publically identified as greed and theft, so the injustice is called “Social Justice” - Orwellian Newspeak for government greed and theft.
Another example are the Newspeak words "Affirmative Action" - words used to describe the destruction of a student's right to gain graduate school admission based on an out-of-favor ethnic group or skin color - rather than admission based purely on academic achievement and studious preparation.
We also have the phrase "Living Constitution" - Orwellian Newspeak for Dead Constitution.
The "Living Constitution" is law which is not derived from We the People, law not derived from the majority, but law arbitrarily derived from a small minority. The "Living Constitution" does not take its breath of life from the amendment process (the real life and breath of our Constitution) but from the minds of an effete class of "Philosopher Kings."
Newspeak government lies are cleverly disguised in rhetoric - lies which can be received and accepted by otherwise intelligent people via the insanity of Orwellian Doublethink - simultaneous mental acceptance of both the lie and the truth. Taken together, Newspeak lies of totalitarian government and Doublethink insanity on the part of their subjects, rejection of truth within human minds can occur on a colossal scale. Insanity (or psychosis) is the mental state where reality (the truth) cannot be separated from falsehood (the lie). Since totalitarian governments
George Orwell (1903 - 1950)
an interesting study of course is just how this plays out in the big picture.
In other words the subterfuge of 911, waco, murrah, wtc 93, tonkin, and a host of other events play a much more important (subversive) role exercised by those at the helm than meets the lay persons eye.
Everything government has done orinates with a minimum of 2 purposes.
On that will be phased out and die, and another that will survive.
The one that is to our benefit will be phased out to their benefit will live forever.
Its, well, just the way its done, always has been always will be.
