And fighting 'defensively' also has a large range. Most recent wars involving western nations would probably be categorised (at least by them) as defensive whereas I would disagree. There's a huge difference between fighting because your country has been invaded (e.g. troops on the ground, trying to overthrow your government, killing civilians) and fighting because a country has dangerous weapons they could theoretically use to attack you at some future date (both arguable defensive, but only the first would I consider fighting in).
