Lol Russian soldiers on US soil? The US military would do good to hang back, avert their gaze, and let the US citizens handle things how they see fit. Plausible deniability and all that

    This fucking waffle maker in my comments above yours keeps trying to convince me that America hasnt "experienced" war. And that war is horrible, as if America isn't the most successful War tribe in all of recorded history.

    If successful means achieving none of your strategic objectives, but wasting trillions killing a whole bunch of civilians, sure.

    Yea that.

    But like also WW1, WW2 on two separate fronts...at the same time, Korean war, Kosovo.

    Honerable mentions: Greek civil war, Afghanistan Russian war, Arabian Israel wars.

    Oh right...lol. the American civil war, and the American revolution, the war of 1812, the Spanish American war....

    Well shit Skippy ...weve been in some conflicts. How many aircraft carriers does your country have floating around?

    Korea

    The Korean War included the greatest retreat in US history, which was only stopped because we were fighting an enemy with barely any industrial capacity to resupply troops, or even supply them with enough radios, and we failed to achieve the objective of a unified Korea (letalone the bloodthirsty moron MacArthur's objective of invading China and becoming the "ceasar of the east").

    Kosovo, Yugoslavia

    We bombed a bunch of civilians, showed the world that our B2 stealth bomber could be shot down by 30 year old, man-portable AA. I'm still unsure what strategic use bombing embassies and apartments was.

    Greek civil war, Afghanistan Russian war, Arabian Israel wars

    America didn't didn't directly fight any of those.

    the war of 1812

    We lost that one, our objective was to take Spanish America, and we failed that. They also burned the whitehouse.

    WWI, WWII, Spanish American war

    Those the US did manage to achieve some of it's objectives, but WWII was 80 years ago.

    American civil war, and the American revolution

    Those were primarily against other Americans.

    Yea the honerable mentions we're just assists. War of 1812 was a war I wanted to mention as one we fought. American civil war is a war America objectively won. And the American revolution America objectively won.
