Nope. That person is an idiot. American freedom is also its ability to wage war. In doing other nations cannot.
Today American freedom is this Planet's ranking status at practically everything, and it is the Globe's leading economy.
War is therefore necessary in maintaining its dominance. In doing so it remains free because it largely creates this Planet's rules alongside various partners and allies.
Citizen freedom might not agree. Because of the constitution changing. It increasingly taxes and its citizens are bound by increasing laws perhaps away from their notions of constitutional liberty. It wasn't free then either, many were slaves, others were immigrants citizens and subjects, many purchased their freedom in the form of land deeds. Many also fought for it.
As far as war went, action caused reaction until it simply followed along the path that shaped it and the force it is.
That person is naively wrong about what happened in those wars and indeed why America fought entering them.
