This comment is ahistorical to an extreme degree.

The EU was not founded until 1993.

This is not a 'rah rah America' statement, however, the European continent after WWII was rebuilt via the economic engine and output of the United States.

You can take a look at the rebuilding post-war effort of Western Europe vs Eastern Europe to see the clear delineation of success. Does no-one remember the Balkan wars, and post war scarcity that existed to a more extreme detriment in Eastern Europe than Western?

I do agree with the statement that America has not stopped waging wars, this is a factual statement.
