But they have brought many wars to a diplomatic conclusion. Haven't they?

GOAL was never to WIN - keep up ARMS SALE - barking louder cold war was fine - now these psychopaths doing HOT WARS WW2 - english yanks were fucking farts lost to germans only when red army clean sweep BERLIN these anglo morons arrived claimed the credit only legit war was 1991 - it paid fully kuwait - many agreed 250 yrs they did not win any real big war except civil war - where southern maga trash stronghold

Agree with the overall sentiment, but for argument’s sake, WW2 outcome was the rise of the dollar and final end of the Pound Sterling as world reserve currency with Bretton Woods, along with debut deployment of nuclear weapons. Soviets, suffered extremely more casualties, did geographic expansionism in Europe but so did the United States, with the two essentially carving up east and west militarily.

Agree... But Iraq 1, why do recon it's not a US victory?

Absolutely and not arguing that the Allies didn't win the war. It just wasn't a US only victory even if some of them might thing it was.

*think

For sure

The purpose is not to win the wars but to win on the wars. Loosing is maybe even part of the strategy from the very beginning and Iran conflict is just confirming that even more.

hot take!
