This fucking waffle maker in my comments above yours keeps trying to convince me that America hasnt “experienced” war. And that war is horrible, as if America isn’t the most successful War tribe in all of recorded history.
The Korean War included the greatest retreat in US history, which was only stopped because we were fighting an enemy with barely any industrial capacity to resupply troops, or even supply them with enough radios, and we failed to achieve the objective of a unified Korea (letalone the bloodthirsty moron MacArthur’s objective of invading China and becoming the “ceasar of the east”).
Kosovo, Yugoslavia
We bombed a bunch of civilians, showed the world that our B2 stealth bomber could be shot down by 30 year old, man-portable AA. I’m still unsure what strategic use bombing embassies and apartments was.
Greek civil war, Afghanistan Russian war, Arabian Israel wars
America didn’t didn’t directly fight any of those.
the war of 1812
We lost that one, our objective was to take Spanish America, and we failed that. They also burned the whitehouse.
WWI, WWII, Spanish American war
Those the US did manage to achieve some of it’s objectives, but WWII was 80 years ago.

If successful means achieving none of your strategic objectives, but wasting trillions killing a whole bunch of civilians, sure.
Yea that.
Well shit Skippy …weve been in some conflicts. How many aircraft carriers does your country have floating around?

Those were primarily against other Americans.
