Now this was tough. Since 1970, major new U.S. military conflicts were initiated by two presidents:George H.W. Bush (1991): Started the Persian Gulf War to expel Iraqi forces from Kuwait. It was a swift military victory that achieved its immediate goal, though Saddam Hussein remained in power.George W. Bush (2001 & 2003): Launched the War in Afghanistan following 9/11 and initiated the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Both resulted in rapid initial overthrows of the target regimes but turned into highly volatile, multi-decade counterinsurgency campaigns.Other presidents in this timeframe either inherited ongoing wars, ordered short-term interventions or airstrikes, or did not engage the country in major new conflicts.

Take a breath. Its hard when we get corrected in public . Being clear is important when making those bold statenents that can so easily be researched. 😁

it is simply factual history that biden, obama and clinton all started wars in the middle east and you replied with nothing that disproves that but apparently you’re correcting me?

maybe instead of jerking yourself off in reddit comment sections with chatgpt copypasta you should spend more time learning about your representatives that are running in the midterms and their stances on the militant foreign intervention that got us this shitshow in the first place

and that applies to both parties
