Iraq &Vietnam two wars same results so far.

Vietnam and Iraq war. These two wars are very similar but they took place in very different time periods. The war of Vietnam was a war that took place in Vietnam and was considered one of the worst wars the U.S. has ever been involved in ever. Today we are at war in a place called Iraq. This county is located in the middle eastern area of the world and is a desert waste land. The reason I chose these two pieces of history is simple, they both aren’t really winning wars.

All I know is that we are shelling out a lot of money for such a expensive and not really productive war. Iraq has had few productive parts to the war. We found Sadam and he was executed and killed. Iraq overall is a more stable country now and school, hospitals, police forces, oil production are all supposedly a lot better in Iraq now. Were there ever any weapons of mass destruction found? Probably not but there are still productive things that occurred in Iraq.
