    Tell that to Saddam and Gaddafi.

    lol the downvote. Did those governments that no longer exist actually win the wars that caused them to cease existing?

    *this doesn’t mean they were good or justified. If anyone thinks I implied or said that you need to learn how to read.

        1st Iraq was a clear win, both militarily and strategically. 2nd Iraq and Libya were strategic victories because the real purpose was to maintain the petrodollar, which was attained.

          Actually the reason your government gave was to get the weapons of mass destruction from Saddam, which was proven to be a lie, so how did you win an illegal war based on fake goals?

            You believe US when they state the war reasons and goals? Lol, lmao even. They achieved a real war goal of stopping Iraq and Libya from breaking dollar monopoly on oil sale.

            Also it’s not my government, my government was actually quite honest, they admitted they went there to bootlick USA and loot Iraq.

              Uhh no, I’m saying they didn’t win the war because they couldn’t meet their stated goals, I wouldn’t trust that country as far as I could throw it.

              My bad for assuming, btw.

                I mean yeah that usually work like that but USA are in entire another layer of hypocrisy, their stated war goald are only a political theatre for their population, plausible deniality and propaganda purposes.

                My bad for assuming, btw.

                No problem
