I just think we wanted to get our dicks wet with another war and didn't realize what we were getting ourselves into, like we did with Vietnam. |
It wasn't that. It was just a complete lack of planning. Iraq had no reason to end up how it did. Except for an incredible lack of planning and a number of really stupid maneuvers as soon as they took over.
Vietnam was an unwinnable war because it was a groundwar with the chinese. In which we couldn't invade to far without worrying about provoking setting off a nuclear war.
