over 20,000 troops
When Afghanistan jet fighters are fighting US jet fighters. When Afghanistan tanks are fighting US tanks. When Afghanistan warships are fighting US warships. When Afghanistan soldiers are fighting US soldiers. Then it will be like Vietnam. Right now, it just a law enforcement issue; finding terrorists, arresting them, or terminating them.
US Servicemen were fighting regular (NVA) soldiers and airmen from the North Vietnamese Army, Air Force, and Navy (Tonkin Gulf Incident). US Servicemembers are NOT fighting the Iraqi Air Force, Army, or Navy.

the Americans have been in Iraq for 7 years
USA
there were 4,400 casualties in the war in iraq, and about 200,000 returned home, so your ratio would be just about 50:1
Take the soldiers out of Iraq and get us out of this economic crisis!!

US soldiers and Marines are fighting the Taliban .
Not even close. 58,000 US Soldiers alone died in Vietnam. 4,805 Coalition Soldiers died in Iraq.
roughly 150,000
Currently, there are only a few thousand US soldiers deployed to the Middle East, but during the height of the surge in Iraq, there were 130,000-150,000 US soldiers in Iraq alone.
