Sure, that said we did not enter the war because it was a moral obligation, we got into the war because we did capitalist bullshit that got us attacked. The only moral war in the last two centuries is arguably the civil war and that could easily be argued to be a economic decision not at all a moral one.
I imagine I’m going to get pushback about the civil war thing but let me be clear, slavery is immoral no question. It just isn’t actually why we got involved in the civil war, that was purely an economic decision.
We did not enter either way for moral reasons. There’s also no moral war but that’s another issue entirely given wars throughout history tend to be for land or resources with the occasional excuse otherwise.

I would call WWII a moral war, at least for the allies. WWI was just imperialist bullshit plus an arms race. WWII was a very different beast.
