One Sargent?

Um; we haven't seen the full results of invading a country to influence the area around it yet. Once again; wars aren't fought over night.
Not once have I said that wars ARE fought overnight, so stop saying that. We haven't seen the full results of invading a country to influence the area around it yet because that in not a justifiable cause for war. The results that we have seen so far have not been promising as have been the results of other times in history when the U.S. has used military action to dictate the politics of another country.

I am comparing the global conflict of WWII with the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq(war on terror). I'm not saying that everything that happened was related, just that there are some interesting similarities if you think about it.
Please point out these similarities.

Fine then we will look at Vietnam; 47, 369 deaths.
Or Korea...33,651 deaths.
Tactics and technology have also changed since these conflicts. Apparently you are only counting (or valuing) American deaths. Is that all that matters?

I'm saying that casualties pale in comparison and the huge amounts of whining before we even see the full results of the war are pathetic. (Not that I don't value life. I am sorry for anyone who has lost a loved one in any war)
Read some stats on deaths and casualties of both Iraqi civilians and american military men. Saying that those deaths pale in comparison before we see the results of the war is very ignorant.

I'm curious as to how many of those civilians were killed by terrorists
Far more were killed by the bombings from Allied forces planes and most have been women and children. If you are truly curious, look it up, I did a quick search and there is plenty of information.

I am also curious as to how many civilians were slaughtered and put into mass graves, or how many people were raped while under Saddam's rule.
As terrible as life under Saddam's rule was, more Iraqis have died directly due to the military actions of George Bush Sr. and Jr. then ever by Saddam Hussein. As for rape and torture, apparently they are not too safe from that anymore as american military soldiers are also participating in that.

I am also curious if you know how many terrorists(or insurgents) have been killed. I think if I remember correctly it's like one American soldier to ten terrorists in the death ratio. I kinda forgot since the liberal media never reports on how many terrorists die over there 🙄 .
Yes because the liberal media supports the terrorists, that must be it. As for the whole discussion on the liberal media, that has been done to death and proven a fallacy, search KMC forums for further info on that.

Most of what I found was just stories on Al-Qaeda. i.e. 'Al-Qaeda training manual found','terrorism Q&A/Al-Qaeda', or Al-Qaeda leaders arrested.
If your truly interested, keep searching.
