Perhaps. Although Vietnam comes to mind. So does Somalia.

Compare the leadership of Bush vs Clinton cf Iraq vs Somalia.

there is none really, both viet nam and somalia niether were we attempting to take control of the enemy, not wars.
the people who say this is simuliar to vietnam and somalia
don't know war. somalia we sent a few guys in to keep peace it didn't work, in vietnam we sent alo of guys in to keep another country to take over our ally/prevent the spread of communism, it did work. at no point did we make a serious attmept to take over the north, that was a mistake, supply lines remained intact and a superpower was supplying equipment to the north. this is not simular to iraq either.
