What position should the US military take with regards to the people in those countries who are currently working to resist those efforts to annex and invade their countries their homelands?
Do you consider Canadian and Icelandic civilians your adversary? If so, how did that come to be?
I'm against the U.S.'s broken leadership as much as any sensible person. But even in normal times with sane leadership, national defense is often a matter of "kill or be killed." This is certainly an uncomfortable truth, but that's the way of the world.

For example, the US has a long record of assassinating labor leaders in South America to protect our Banana Republics on behalf of Chiquita. I think it's absolutely fair to bring in skepticism towards the secrets our military keeps from us

But they only complain when free bananas are removed from the snacks.
Is the implication here that we should take the moral high ground and let our adversaries murder us first?

Well that would be fine if it was defence. But it's now the department of war, led by a person who has attacked two countries this year alone.

I'm genuinely not sure how else to interpret your previous comment. Do you see any situations where defense by lethal force is appropriate?

A bit of an unconstructive, unwarranted jab, if I may say so.
