The US has been in perpetual war since the constitution was suspended in 1933. If the US were to stop the wars, the constitution would have to be reinstated & all the unconstitutional alphabet agencies & policies would be eliminated. As it stands right now, we no longer have due-process. One is considered guilty until proven innocent, instead of being presumed inocent until proven guilty. This is evident with unconstitutional laws like asset forfeiture & the NDAA, where one can be imprisoned indefinitely without trial.
