Who's "we" ?

The "Argentinians" certainly did that in living memory and I'm sure that Iraq invaded Kuwait not long ago .....

A brief look at Wiki displays :

2008 invasion of Gaza by Israel
2008 invasion of Georgia by Russia
2008 invasion of Anjouan by the African Union
2006 invasion of Somalia by Ethiopia
2006 invasion of Lebanon by Israel
2003 invasion of Iraq by United States-led coalition
2001 invasion of Afghanistan by United States-led coalition

What's "humility" got to do with the wishes of the residents of the Falklands Islands (known to the Dutch, who first sighted them in 1600, as the Sebald Islands, a name they bore on Dutch maps into the 19th century) ?
