I'm sure you know what the word "almost" means.
"Definition of ALMOST: very nearly but not exactly or entirely"

And so you insist that: Very nearly but not exactly or entirely all military intervention is very nearly but not exactly or entirely always economically motivated.


And yet ideology is always the "story" used to justify military intervention to the plebe.
I'm not certain who "the plebe" is but apparently he/she has insufficient knowledge, in your opinion, to grasp that his purse may be threatened by enemies (real or imagined) of the state, yet a threat to his/her, all important,(political?)"ideology" justifies military intervention or total war worth losing his/her life or the lives of his/her loved ones.

I almost agree with your opinion.
I'm sure you know what the word "opinion" means.
