Initially Operation Iraqi Freedom was conducted to over throw the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussain, which was accomplished in 2003. This paralleled Operation Just Cause in 1989 when the Panamanian dictator General Noriega was over thrown by US forces and imprisoned in the US. Later, in both cases law, order, and stability had to be restored to both nations (countries) (Law Enforcement Operations).
The Vietnam War was fought against the nation of North Vietnam backed by the communist super powers of the USSR & Red China. The war against North Vietnam and the communist guerrillas in South Vietnam (Viet Cong) paralleled the traditional wars of the past...wars fought between countries (nations) for any number of reasons...US Civil War (1861), Spanish-American War (1898), Franco-Prussian War (1871), Russo-Japanese War (1905), WWI (1914-1918), etc.
The Iran-Iraq War 1980-1988, and Operation Desert Storm-January to Febuary 1991 were fought against particular COUNTRIES...Iraq and/or Iran. The current Operation Iraqi Freedom is NOT against the nation/country of Iraq. The current POLICE ACTION is to restore LAW, ORDER, and STALBILITY to Iraq. This is a Law Enforcement function. Arrest/kill, try in court, imprison/execute; that's why WANTED POSTERS were issued.
None at all.
The Peloponnesian War was a struggle between rival alliances in Greece involving about 300 independent city-states.
The Vietnam War was a proxy war involving the takeover of South Vietnam (backed by the West) by North Vietnam (backed by Communist USSR and CPPP).
There are none; The Vietnam War was fought against another nation (North Vietnam); just as Korea was fought against North Korea (and Red China); and WWII was fought against the countries of Germany, Japan and Italy.
The US is NOT at war with Afghanistan.
None (other than it was a war). The Mexican War (1846-1848) was a traditional war (ground gaining) and a very special one; it created the geographical lower 48 states as they look on the map now. The Mexican War gave the US California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada and Utah. Together, prior to the war, called Upper California (aka New California or California territory).
The only war that can be related to the Vietnam War was the US Civil War (officially called the "War of the Rebellion" in the archives). Both of these wars occurred in the 60s and both ended with a Vice President named Johnson taking over the presidents office, etc.
