Iraq fought back in 1991. Look at how many aircraft were deployed to Desert Storm. Over 2,000.

The US should never have invaded. We did not lose the War though.

Germany without an Eastern front would have been very very hard for the US and UK. We would have lost 100,000s or we would have nuked continental Europe.

Lose in Iraq is a quite a strong term. We met our objectives; usually that’s a win.

Whaaa? russia has succeed in destroying the US backed rebels. they have dine nothing with regard to ISIS. The goals are very different. If the US wanted regime change, it would have happened already. Get real.

Except the US hit specific targets. Not to say the Iraqi people did not suffer, but the US has been more sensitive then most combatants.
