and,
Iraq doesn't even come close to Vietnam (yet) and Vietnam was 'just another regional conflict' compared to a hundred others.
This is not asking for 'moral relativism' and this is agreeing that 'any war is bad war',
but,
If you step back and look at the history of wars in just that region - the current Iraq war is small stuff and barely counts.
