I never said they were imperialist wars, so your question is moot. What I'm saying is the wars are a useless waste of blood and treasure in shitholes that won't improve with our blood and treasure. Our activities just created more pissed off people like you.
Let's take a step back.
Do you believe Iraq War to be imperialistic or US Government's benevolence to free the Iraqis from the clutches of Saddam?
"Activities" are killing,raping,pillaging,etc. True?
I don't think it was imperialistic. I think it was I'll advised. I think the results speak for itself. Same as in Libya same as the Iran Saudi proxy war in Yeman.
The less time, blood and treasure we spend in those shitholes, the better the US will be.
You keep skirting the issue. If occupation wasn't the goal then why did USA invade Iraq?
