Iraq was a war. We won it.

The JBS opposed it.

Viet Nam was a war. We won it.

The JBS opposed it. And I'd be interested in how you arrive at "we won it." War is invariably a political act. If you fail to achieve your political goals, you have not won, no matter how glorious the battlefield heroics.

Trying to nanny Afghanistan is not a war.

No. It's the aftermath of one. But if we begin with a failed state and a terrorist haven and end with a failed state and a terrorist haven, we lose.
