What, you don't know how to do research? Too stupid or too lazy?
Let's list some of the US military opportunities since WW II.
Korea = Stalemate
Hungary = We could not help them
Viet Nam = Stalemate leading to Complete Loss
Czechoslovakia = We could not help them
Granada = Yea! We're Number 1!!!!!!!!!
Panama = Yea! We're number 1, again!!!! (We sure kick ass on minuscule countries)
Gulf War 1 = Yea! We're number !!!!!!!!!
Afghanistan = Stalemate/slipping into loss at present
Irag = Work in progress/to soon to tell
Georgia = We could not help them
Not all that impressive for the world's number 1 power now is it? And before the neocons flame me for dissing our soldiers, I'm not, I was one of them, were you? Military success is dependent on many more attributes and factors than just the quality of the soldiers.
