Victories in the Middle East
I’m honestly not sure what this refers to in recent memory unless you’re talking about the initial battlefield victories, executing Hussein, killing Bin Laden, or dropping MOAB to make ourselves feel better. We fled Afghanistan with our tails between our leg, left a power vacuum in our wake and the people to be ruled by their theocrats. It was godawful and we lost stupendously more than we gained at least in the public sector. Nice agitprop though I guess.
Calm down. Agitprop is just what it is, not a value judgement. I’m not offended at all, I just asked a question. The US military is powerful but hasn’t won on its own terms in awhile, so I wasn’t clear on what you meant.
